      Daymak Spiritus? Where is it? Promises and 25000 deposits received. Doesn't look like it will ever happen. Plus it's so easy for companies to invite Tech Wow for a dog and pony show to get positive reviews. Ebike Review also does that. Now they have the Leggera which looks like it's big enough for a skinny kid. Will that ever come out too?

    The red Polaris Slingshot in the beginning was a 4 wheeler. Anyway, my 2017 Polaris Slingshot spent more time in the repair shop then on the road. The hoops the repair shop/Polaris dealer had to jump through for corporate to approve a fix on my Slingshot (under extended full warranty" was ridiculous! Look super cool, but would never buy another.

      Hey, thanks for sharing your experience! It's a bummer to hear about the issues you faced with your Polaris Slingshot. It's definitely frustrating when a cool-looking ride ends up spending more time in the repair shop than on the road. Your feedback is valuable, and it's important for potential buyers to hear about real-world experiences like yours. Thanks for keeping it real!

    Technically, none of these are classified as a "car". If a 3 wheeled vehicle is steered by a steering wheel, it is classified as an "autocycle"; if by handlebars, then it is classified as a "motorcycle".

    • @Techwowofficial
      @Techwowofficial  5 місяців тому +3

      You're absolutely right. It's just that most people aren't familiar with the term "autocycle," so they search for "three-wheeled cars" instead. I've used it here to make it more relatable for a larger audience. Thanks for pointing that out though! Appreciate it! 👍🏼

    Avvenire raised millions in crowdfunding to built a car called the Spiritus. I think they also said they got $1B In commitments. A prototype was built, now years later, doesn't look like it's going to happen. Where is it? So after raising all of that money, are we sure that this Leggera may actually be built? The Leggera is a roadster, can't really be used in most of North America and definitely not in those Canadian winters. I have noticed over the years that Daymak which is their head company has been raising money through crowdfunding but nothing seems to happen.

    - Low price, no more than budget-priced regular cars. In other words, under $15,000.

It's all about finding the right balance between what you're getting and what you're paying. Also, I'd love to know more about the EV you mentioned for 2024 - got any details to share?

      "- Low price, no more than budget-priced regular cars. In other words, under $15,000." They make cars this cheap in 2024? I just bought a used Elantra Hybrid 28,000 miles 3 years old and that was still worth $18,000.
      I do agree that the vehicles listed here are toys however. They are 2nd or even 3rd vehicles that people would own. Maybe used as a commuter vehicle or a fun car to drive on the weekends.
      "Data from Kelley Blue Book puts the average cost of a new car at $48,008 as of March 2023."
      I would also disagree that a $30,000 car is a rich mans toy. People buying Corolla's and Elantra's etc. are not rich people. And those vehicle are not what I would consider to be a toy car.

      @@Fairburne69 I recently shopped for a brand new car. I found the Nissan Versa stick shift for about $15k (brand new) and it is a more reliable car than any Kia or Hiunday. I ended up buying the 2nd level trim of the Sentra (a car that I found just as well built as most 40-50k cars) for about $21k. And my initial goal was to buy an EV or failing that a PHEV... but from a financial perspective they could not compete with these ICEs.
      Also, either of these two Nissans is far superior to any of the reviewed "toy EVs" discussed.
      I still plan to buy a super-compact EV *with A/C* as my 2nd car eventually, but the price/value has to make it worth it. Or maybe an e-Trike as a hybrid for exercise and minor grocery shopping inside my community. As to a primary EV... it will likely be the Aptera or equivalent when it is time for a new primary car, probably in 10 years.

      Claro, adoraria ajudar, mas traduzir o vídeo inteiro é um pouco complicado. Talvez você possa tentar usar o recurso de tradução de legendas do UA-cam? Deve ajudar! 😊

      While internal combustion engines have their charm, electric motors offer instant torque and a smooth driving experience. It's worth giving electric vehicles a chance!

      @@Techwowofficial always with the torque. No fun driving noiseless vehicles. Or worse, that sissy whistle or annoying chain cranks(ebikes). I'm ole school and I like my engine noise.

      Sorry about that. It seems that I've failed to use the right footage for the model. But rest assured that the one I'm talking about in the video is indeed a single seater vehicle. I'll be more critical of these things in the future. Thanks for your feedback!
