The Free Spirit is a cross between a bike and a car. What Leonid Lucenko has really designed, of course, is a tricycle.
Sometimes designers let creativity get in the way. For example, the Free Spirit has three wheels: tri; not two: bi. Plus, it appears it doesn't have peddles, which makes it some kind of motorcycle. But all those little flaws aside, this is one cool design. It's a fantasy, but it might inspire other designers to take the chance that the right combination of sexy style and ecology can find a big market.
