So, some smartass went and reinvented the wheel ...

jubuttib says...

Yeah, "applicable only to the very lightest of electric vehicles". Something like that would at least have a chance of working. Basically something like a Segway, an electric bike, a small cart/kart/trike, something like that. Though how much of a weight save compared to loss of driving dynamics/stability/safety you'd get is a bit iffy, the suspension bits in a 200 pound vehicle are already very light.

But yeah, something like that might work.

OK, I don't disagree on any point, except the assumption that an electric car MUST be a 1000KG fully loaded passenger car.
I was thinking more of the non-highway legal, neighborhood kind that might weigh 200lbs.+- where saving 75-100 lbs would make a huge difference, and minimal suspension would still be OK.

I can just imagine his train of thought.

Payback says...

On the British Science Fiction show, "Doctor Who", the Daleks are the main character's worst enemy. They are small amoeba-like creatures who've created large garbage can-like robo-suits to move around so they can kill everyone else in the Universe. Their movement is not unlike a covered Segway scooter. Stairs are impossible without CGI.

The joke being a horse-mounted policeman would have similar problems navigating a small apartment as a Dalek.
