It remains very expensive for the services offered :?

In addition, if the choice of a small battery is interesting (to reduce the cost), it is a pity that the recharge time is so long (this time, the recharge is far from being limited by the power available at the outlet :frown: ).

This small integral 4x4 should do wonders on difficult or snowy roads, or crossing deserts with a trailer fitted with a large area of ​​solar panels.

technically interesting vehicle (very economical, 4-wheel drive "motor-wheel")

but in fact perhaps a little expensive with regard to the speed / autonomy / load capacity benefits.

I think this vehicle is especially interesting in difficult terrain, or in snowy and icy cities, where other cars cannot go. A sort of three-seater quad dressed in a car.

the tires do not seem to me suitable for off-road, let alone snow.

But we could consider special "mounts" ... In this case beware of the drop in autonomy ...

In my opinion, neither the tires, nor the ground clearance, nor the suspension. There also seems to be some kind of "fork" that secures the wheel on both sides of the hub.

On the contrary, I find that the ground clearance and the suspension are well suited. And putting on studded tires is no big deal.

Unless they changed the chassis since? I couldn't find the video anymore, too bad, it seems that the Velectris site no longer exists.

The builder of this wonderful all-terrain mule (the initial name "Explorer" seemed more appropriate to me) chose to target the more profitable city car market. Wouldn't it be possible to do both with 2 different bodies?

I find that the Weez deserves an original bodywork highlighting its all-terrain characteristics and its rear loading possibilities, rather than disguising itself as bland city. Some city dwellers love the adventurer's looks if it is accompanied by enough comfort.
Would the solution of wheels fixed on a fork (telescopic?) Be an economical alternative to the long-travel suspensions originally planned? In any case, it could allow the 4 wheels to pivot, for unmatched maneuverability, using large-scale commercial parts.
These are assumptions. If the manufacturer could tell us more ...
