Another company making news during EVS 23, the Electric Vehicle Symposium, was Vectrix Corporation. Durng the show, Chief Marketing Officer Jeff Morrill introduced me to the V3, an all electric three-wheeler featuring twin front wheels that grasp the road during cornering, offering the agility of a scooter and the safety and stability of a small car. It’s lithium ion battery powers the three-wheeler 0-50 MPH in 5.2 seconds, reaching a top speed of 62 mph and goes 40-60 miles on a single charge. Yet at lower speeds, the bike is stable and allows riders to remain upright without ever having to put their feet down.
