Vectrix's profilation of this bike |
The revolutionary three-wheeled all-electric, all-highway Personal Electric Vehicle is capable of speeds up to 68 mph with a range of up to 80 miles. Each VX-3 has an innovative steering system where you can set the front wheels to either full-stability for low speed manuvering or fully-articulated steering for higher speed travel. Talk about having the best of both worlds. |
