Further, for the environmentalists, this electronic bike won’t hurt our ears or release harmful gases to cause global warming and health issues and still be a useful medium of transport.
William J. Mitchell, a smart MITian, from the Smart Cities Group, showcased a prototype of the Bike at the famous Milan Auto Show (a precise example of globalization). If this group’s vision comes to happen, then the most affordable and easiest means of transportation will be available in racks at train stations and at any goods store.
There are two motors placed inside its wheels and will have 150 parts with comparison to other bike which have almost 1500 parts. Good thing for the manufacturers also. These bikes can be taken of the rack by a simple credit card swipe. The rack also would work as charging stations. The trendy, light and low-cost foldable bike can be pulled or pushed as any trolley suitcase.
So, what else can be so easy? Just swipe you credit card and your vehicle is ready to take you anywhere you wish. Let’s not just take a walk, but take a ride?
