Bag om Personal Electric Vehicles - IEVs
I call Personal Electric Vehicles IEVs. That's because people want their Electric Vehicle to be more personal. They want it to resonate with who they are (I). Can you blame them? An IEV is like your alter ego. For some people, this would be a Tesla or a Nissan Leaf. But, IEVs are more personal. That means they're typically smaller. Often they're smaller or not much bigger than the driver / rider.
Ask yourself these questions. If I put wheels on my feet and added some batteries for electricity, what would I transform into? How fast would I be able to go? And, how much fun could I have getting there? That's the IEV for you. What is a Personal Electric Vehicle (IEV)? How am I defining them?
#1 It's Fully Electric: I won't be including any Hybrid Vehicles which use fossil fuels.
#2 It's Personal: This vehicle not only gets you around, it is the definition of who you are.
#3 It's Usually for One Person: One part of whether a vehicle is personal or not, is its capacity. While personal seems to imply one person, I'm going to include vehicles which hold two.
You might normally be the only person in or on your vehicle. However, every so often, you might want to or need to, take someone else along. Perhaps you never go anywhere without your BFF. So, what kind of vehicles are we talking about here? Electric Skateboards, e-bikes, Micro cars and many more. I cover IEVs that travel on the ground - on the street and off-road. I cover those that go in and under the water and those which fly. I look at vehicles which are used on the farm and in the warehouse. The best part, is that I help you create an evaluation check-list for when you buy your IEV - the personal electric vehicle that is you.
