Not your average any-day car - this is an electric 3 wheeler from Cree in Switzerland. Still working on the front wheel arm-thingies. Didn't have the best of references going into this project.

Feedback welcome - surfacing still needs help, particularly reflective surfaces.

Fine ! Fine !
Super modelling for an object without reference material .

[dobermunk]

Thanks!



There was reference material, check out the site: http://www.cree.ch

Just not as precise as I would have liked. Have to say its refreshing to see an approach to design like this!

Nice modelling and renders, interesting vehicle.

At first I thought it was a single seater, but reading the blurb it has two seats!

I really want one! Is there any news about thier production? Can you actually buy one of these, or is the company still waiting to be bought out?

[dobermunk]

I know they have a limited series already - and that they're trying to arrange for a serial production after alterations on the door design.

That's all I know. I've read its a real kick to drive (despite limited range before needing to load up again) because the thing is totally silent. Like riding a bike!

they have to get it to make some sound or it will be running people over :eek: :eek:

[stholenz]

this is a good work, :cool:

Not to take anything away from it because I think it's a cool design, the first thing I thought of was the car that Erkel used to drive...

Erkel drove an old BMW Isetta http://www.cqql.net/bmw.htm

Very cool render dude, love the design looks very simlar to a 3 wheel car/bike that was on TOP GEAR (British Car TV Program) a few weeks ago now. Guessing the Carrage banks round corners and stuff.

Dave;)

[hrgiger]

Yep, that's it Trentonia. ;)

[dobermunk]

:confused:
uh, who's Erkel?

[DaBo]

Crazy Design! :D

I've seen a lot e-cars the last years, always with 4 wheels :)

The rims looks very cheap.

Now go und work on that surfaces! ;)

cya.

[dobermunk]

Will do. Lighting, textures and the whole front wheel struts.

But I'll be working on yet another cute, furry critter :rolleyes: For a week or so. Thanks for the feedback!
