CarQon Solar Electric Bicycle Driven by Sun Power

CarQon Solar

CarQon Solar is a solar powered electric cargo bicycle. Solar panels are placed on the front box and recharge the batteries of the bicycle. The panels are wrapped around the box so that sunlight can be collected from several angles. Sunlight also warms the front box, and the preheating can be controlled through a dedicated mobile application. Aluminium, carbon, steel and wood are used in the construction. The bicycle measures 220 by 90 by 95 centimetres and weighs 35 kilograms. The aim is to offer clean daily transport powered by the sun.
