Looks like shit, if you used it anywhere but what the vid shows.
Bicycle does not need 'improvements' that make it more like a car.
The windshield in my car fogs / ices over immediately when it is below freezing. That thing will be even worse since you would be breathing harder and sweating.
seems winter practical

...why not just get a recumbent?

Looks cosy. Only reason I wouldn't ride (drive?) one is embarrassment, it looks like a child's toy. It has no reason to try to replicate a car so closely (it has alloys and is painted to look like it has bumpers for fuck sake). Take the covering off and I'd gladly rip that about town, even better if they stick a 750w motor in it.

Recumbents are pretty fucking cool m8
In the snow I think having more than 2 wheels would complicate things. With 2 wheels you can ride in a clear spot left by vehicle traffic. With 3 or 4 you are going to have a couple boat anchors dragging in the soft stuff.

About as cool or cooler than the shitty children's toy car there.

According to the indiegogo page the thing weighs 70 kg. That's heavy af. I wonder how much of the weight is batteries. It's slow with a top speed of 25 km/h (until the motor cuts out?).
What if you're going down hill? What if you go very fast? I wonder how it handles. I've never ridden a recumbent, I don't know if would handle like a standard one either.
I guess though that it'd be good for short distances, much better than a standard cage.
