smartnhappy Posted February 24 Share Posted February 24 (edited) Saw this little bugger at the Loblaws SuperStore in St.Thomas a few days ago. Logo on it was 'MATR X NEXA'. Couldn't stop to talk with driver, an elderly gent loading his groceries. Made me feel like I was driving a bus ! I've got couple more photos, but all over 2 Mb file size so system won't let me download. Haven't got a clue how to reduce pix size. Oh well. Edited February 24 by smartnhappy Added text.

Willys Posted February 25 Share Posted February 25 There is a guy in Newmarket who drives what I would call the closest thing to micro car. It's only a single person wide, with a tall seating position, He works at the gas station at Leslie and Green Lane on the north corner. It has to be half the thickness of a Smart Car and shorter also. He drives it on the road like any other car.....slower of course, but it's plated I think...? Maybe not...? It may be this...? But his is black. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Getfuzzy Posted February 25 Share Posted February 25 Are they like the electric bikes where if speed limited they can be used like a bicycle, use the bike lanes/road? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nigel Posted February 26 Share Posted February 26 Matrix Nexa. They are enclosed mobility scooters, not real electric cars for the road. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Willys Posted February 26 Share Posted February 26 Perfect IF you are close to everything you need to live and do not travel far or want to travel any real distances. IMHO....? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you have the Citroen Ami over there on the wrong side of the pond? https://www.citroen.co.uk/ami?gad_source=1&gclid=CjwKCAiAivGuBhBEEiwAWiFmYWcffoMW7roAoiq116QMewY26t9qZrTrm6wnzBpcS5mHCM2tJPeTXRoCP0IQAvD_BwE&gclsrc=aw.ds Edited February 26 by Mjolinor Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Willys Posted February 26 Share Posted February 26 That Ami....is almost as big as a 450 Smart...? If that is the case, I'll stick with what I have ...lol. IF I need an electric single seater 4 wheel chair then I want it as small as possible to be able to get places that micro cars aren't allowed OR, keeps me off the actual roads where normal traffic is trying to kill me for going such slow speeds....just my oinion of course...lol I think anything with 4 taller wheels and a roof and doors and is the size of a lazy boy is ideal..No need to make it any larger. I am seeing many what looks like tall wheeled 3 and 4 wheelers closer to pedal bikes than ATV's but are battery powered. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Willys Posted February 26 Share Posted February 26 I saw one of these today on the road pulling a small trailer of a similar size...it had a large "F" Trudeau flag flying behind it...lol He was in the bicycle lane waiting for the light to change. https://www.princessauto.com/en/pedal-assisted-electric-trike/product/PA0008958753 Enclose this and make it a bit more powerful and they may have something...?
