I'm not quite sure how ‘Envo’ from Canada came up with the idea of having the semi-enclosed vehicle built for the EU by ‘Geobike’ in Poland. But I'm pleased that things are moving forward at all on this topic.

If the price stays below 7500,- EUR, I could well imagine the bike for commuting from autumn to spring, for pensioners, or for families with child trailers.

WTF. "Three-wheel bicycle?" It's a called a trike!

I chance it from "bicycle" to "vehicle" so it matches with the text in the article.

That looks weird. I'd love to see it live.

I'd love to try this out. High price though

For the enclosed velomobiles 'Veemo SE' is the cheapest I know.

  • 'Hopper' starts at 12T EUR
  • 'Quadvelo' at 10-14T EUR and
  • 'IRIS eTrike' should be 10T EUR. (not sure if 'IRIS eTrike' is really ready for series production, or if it's a scam)
