If you ever stare out of your car windscreen at a seemingly endless queue of traffic, but are reluctant about swapping four wheels for two, perhaps you’re in the market for the Lanesplitter.
Very much a concept vehicle, the rear-wheel-drive, all-electric vehicle is designed as a car that can split into two closed-top motorcycles. The idea offers the load carrying and social experience of a car, with the option of practical personal urban transport when neded.
Chipp Walters, who has designed several projects for NASA in the ’80s and ’90s, lead the Lanesplitter project, admits there would be many enginnering hurdles to overcome if the vehicle was to be produced, but explains that plausibility is the key to any good concept.
ETA breakdown cover
Established over 24 years ago, and with over 5,000 recovery trucks on call 24/7, we have a proven track record of providing efficient, reliable breakdown cover.
We handpick only the best local mechanics and garages around Britain to send out if you break down. We believe this way of working is efficient, environmentally friendly and helps supports local communities and economies, too.
On top of this, we offset the carbon emissions of the recovery trucks that go out to assist you, reducing the impact your breakdown has on our environment. Every breakdown policy you buy helps fund the work of our charity, the ETA Trust, which we set up in 1994 to campaign for a safer, cleaner transport future. Find out more
