New three wheeled tilter!

I am really not sure what to say about it! You guys tell me what you think!

This would be vary useful in a large warehouse or mfg. complex. ie: collage campus, Business campus as large as Microsoft.

Might as well put DVC on a cardboard box :-)

Seems like sort of a 'dog' as is; but put that 'articulating' rear end on a V-1 Power Pod (with hub rotor EV motors and a centerline rotary ICE or 'turbine' generator), coupled with the DVC tilting Passenger Module, and you may have 'SOMETHING'!
On a 'Double Twisting' V-1 you could even program the 'front tilt' to counter the 'rear tilt' and '~~~SNAKE~~~' down the road in a 'Straight' line. Now that WOULD get attention!

Thanks Miracleman, my 2-cents:

I say the more the merrier with respect to the tilt-vehicle concept arena. New ideas created, swapped, stolen sometimes lead to more enlightened innovation. While this is not as sophisticated as the Venture project, I'm sure European's would prefer a $13-14 thousand sticker price over amenities. But then it looks like it's meant for quick runs to "Every thing's-A-Euro" not a road trip.

As a tilting delivery van, at least your load wouldn't shift around....but I really like the
two-dog powered trike! WOOF, WOOF!

MM89,

I actually like that vehicle. It would really be a nice thing to have just running around town. The tilting aspect is incredible, and YES.....The more the merrier when it comes to tilting vehicles.

I would like to see passersby's reactions when that thing starts leaning in their direction. :eek:

Instead of a scooter you have a triscoot??? :eek:

Definitely not as nice as what VV has dreamed up, but kinda nifty. Although, and maybe it is purely my perception, but those don't look nearly as stable as the Venture. I like the fact that the body of the Venture articulates, but the power pod and its wheels do not. I'm not real sure about something where everything leans. Those scooters look like a Piaggio MP3 in reverse (instead of 2 in front, 2 in back). Anyway, it looks like there would be some limitations there that the Venture will not have because the Venture largely replicates the feel of a bike/scooter but does not quite handle like one.
