A new concept of a personal urban transporter
Urban Mobility Europe is a Netherlands new company, responsible for running the operations and production of electrical operated vehicles such as the Qugo. The idea for a vehicle like Qugo found its roots in the desire to contribute to the growing demand for electric urban transportation. A fundamental choice was made to aim at personal.To create an exciting yet easy and comfortable drive, the whole Qugo® leans into a corner. This is like skiing on the road. It is achieved by a patented construction. The front wheel driven Qugo® has two smaller rear wheels on swing arms connected to a balance wheel. This balance wheel reacts to the behavior of the driver in a passive manor. This means that there is no electronic intervention to maintain balance. The driver is in charge of the leaning of the Qugo® as much as he is in charge on a bicycle. Therefore the driver can corner as brave as she or he feels like.
This new personal Urban Transporter has a drive line consisting of a 1000W BLDC hub-motor powered by a Li-ion battery with 36V or 48V and 9-12 Ah. This will provide a speed of 25km/h and a range up to 25 kilometers. Pefect to drive in urban streets.
