Eco Factor: Three-wheeled concept vehicle powered by electric batteries.

The Peugeot Velocite by auto designer Juan Carlos has been designed for the year 2020 when congested roads will force people to ride in compact zero emission vehicles. With a three-wheeled configuration, the Peugeot Velocite is powered by an electric engine and its sporty lines and compact design have been created to appeal to a younger audience.

Velocite’s low-resistance electric motor is housed inside the rear orbital wheel, whose center stays static. The outer wheel rotates and is driven directly by the motor. The single swing-arm is located on the right side of the wheel and provides a motorcycle-like suspension setup for simplicity. While rolling downhill, the motor functions as a generator that recharges onboard batteries.
