Default Honda E-Canopy is mobility minded trike

Filed under: MPG, Honda, On Two Wheels, Tokyo Motor Show



Honda may be looking to take on the Hoveround in the competitive personal mobility segment. The company unveiled its E-Canopy three-wheeled scooter at the 2011 Tokyo Motor Show. Honda envisions the all-electric trike primarily for personal use, though the large optional trunk may also make the vehicle ideal for small delivery businesses that may need to cover short distances. The large, plexiglass windscreen should help keep the driver fairly dry in light weather, though the lack of passenger seating may be a problem should the E-Canopy ever make it to production.

We can already see roving gangs of overweight Americans whirring their way to the local Golden Arches before prowling the aisles of their favorite box stores on their Honda Hoveround E-Canopy.Honda E-Canopy is mobility minded trike originally appeared on AutoblogGreen on Sun, 04 Dec 2011 08:04:00 EST.
