Dreaming of a time when the world will be pollution-free, designer D.I. Luciano Sánchez created The W3, which is targeted toward the Italian Ducati motorcycle lovers.
The three-wheeler is capable of leaning into turns to maintain high stability. It's meant to give the rider the feel of a motorcycle, but offering much more safety. It's a total electric concept, powered by batteries to a converter, which in turn feeds the electric motors behind the three rimless wheels.
Implications - Terblend, a composite material made from ABS and polyamide, makes up the body of the vehicle. Combining the best and most efficient traits of each of these components, the blend maximizes the advantages and downplays the disadvantages of each element.
