Caravanning is bringing sexy back. Yes, it’s true. No longer left entirely to the realms of feisty family holidays the caravanning world is about to turn ice cool.
An exciting new prototype caravan, the Mehrzeller, was revealed at this week’s Caravan Salon in Düsseldorf and is getting campers and RV enthusiasts all hot under the collar.
Imagine setting out for work on a crisp fall morning and instead of boarding a train, bus or car you climb onto, or rather balance precariously, on the centre of a huge one-wheeled vehicle made for one. This is the monowheel, and it’s one of the most bizarre transport designs which has enthralled inventors for over a century and a half.
Just when you thought there couldn’t possibly be many more eco cars released this year another one pops on to the market. This time it’s the turn of renowned Spanish car company SEAT; they’ve just introduced the sleek and slender Seat Brisa.
Completely solar-powered, the two-seater, three-wheeler is propelled by solar charged nano-fotovoltaic cells which are located in the vehicle’s translucent elastomere shell, the power generated runs a motor mounted on the rear wheel.
