Looks Like a Car, But Rides in the Bike Lane: The CityQ E-Bike
Looks very similar to Organic Transit's ELF (https://organictransit.com) whose owners are enthusiastic about it but whose business is now for sale.
With a 25 kph governor, the US market won't accept it. The Vespa Elettrica did not sell with a governor of 45 kph. They had to bump it to 70 kph to get US sales. If you bump this "bicycle" to anything above 25 kph, it will be a danger in the bike lane and at that point it should be put into the traffic lane.
a lot of anti-change comments in here. sounds like the Segway... pedestrians didn't want it in the sidewalk and drivers didn't want it in the road.
This needs to be nipped in the butt early. These do not belong in a bike lane. You ride a bike in bike lanes to avoid enclosed four wheeled self powered vehicles. Keep them out on the street.
