It is a hybrid, but maybe not what you’d think. It’s a “human-electric” hybrid.
This puddle jumper is not for the faint of heart, not if you want to get 600 miles per gallon anyway.
Near as we can tell, this vehicle is guaranteed to take the fun out of your driving.
Pedaling extends the range of the vehicle but does not substantially add to the vehicle's top speed.
The vehicle cannot be driven solely by using pedal power. Regenerative antilock braking captures energy from deceleration to recharge computer-controlled batteries.
I wasn’t going to make light of this pedal/electric wonder until I saw the price tag. How many eco-geeks will they find that just happen to have more than $30,000 in their jeans?
We are not sure how Twike is pronounced. Possibly it is meant to sound like “baby talk” for trike.
