I'm a Left bka , I went from.being a active single father to holding the couch down being dependent on people for everyday needs... The US needs these extremely bad. This would get me back to work, back to friends n back to living....wonderful machine and thank you for supplying these in areas that you can.
To qualify for some governments have restrictions. Calling it a moped is one legal term to make it easier to get and less harassment from "law enforcement". Having minimum speeds helps with legal and safety issues. No airbags and other "car" safety features is just that, for a "car" going fast and structural integrity engineering to cope with stresses. . The music is simple and calming because that is what the experience should be. It is not a speedster, it is not a long range highway run-a-about or should be. It is for people in wheelchairs to get to places we could not get to without dependence on others. The buses do not go there or in the time frame you need to or have room for you (after the driver pulls away leaving you and it was the last one that night); friends and relatives are inconvenienced, emotionally drained and unreliable; the weather is definitely a consideration for just two arms and no shelter (especially at a bus stop made for pedders). This is not to give people joyrides, heavy commuter traffic or a license to drive (seriously, get a car). It is an electric moped for w h e e l c h a i r s, pedders. In some places a license, registration and insurance is not r e q u i r e d. This is serious extended transportation for people who n e e d it. I wish I had one and I know I could sell these things to the r i g h t people!
This web site says the cost could be as little as ZERO with some back to work incentives. Do you need one? Have you thought about a 50/50 type drawing or if permissible in your area, strip tickets, or sell lottery tickets (depends on which state) for like $3 based on the daily number and the winner gets 1,300 which is more than the state pays which is typically 600 - 1. My union used to be allowed to sell tickets every 2 months for $3 and the winner got $1,300 or $1,400, can't remember exactly, and my union made $600, and also as I recall some months they only sold say 750 tickets and wouldn't you know it, no one matched the winning number on the daily number lotto so the union got the entire amount of $2,250. Or, if you need the funds for a car you could buy a fixer-upper and flip it. Go to an auction and bid on a piece of property (depending on the area you might luck out or look in the paper for "must settle estate". You get a cheap property, pay some college kids $10/hour (some of them are motivated and will axe friends too) and plus you give them lime or orange crew shirts so they're part of the team. next, order a dumpster. Then, toss out everything; weeds, bushes, then rugs, old kitchen cabinets, and any other junk. Then tear out the old drywall, replace it, and a coat of paint and new light fixtures. ou can double or triple your investment in 2 to 3 months.
its lacking head protection, and one especiaized chair, that engages in rails on the floor of the car to secure the driver in case of an accident, but the idea is great. congratulations
After hearing that music, I wanna go out and rent Brian's Song. .....BTW, cool vehicle, although in my neighborhood I would not leave the charger out overnight..it would be GONE.
They picked the cutest disabled person they could find. Looks like a good vehicle for disabled people. What if they need to take a passenger though or if they have luggage?
@1337BananaL33TVostok and the $16000 price! Kenguru is given to disabled people for free in Hungary by the government. In the US they sell $150 chinese power wheelchairs for $3000.
Hi Al, agree on the problem with the charger outside of the car. This should belong to the vehicle, so that you can load it where ever you go. But 45 kmh is OK in Europe and electric as well. Would also like to support the little car in sales here in germany. And we may have already a garage that fits - the BikeBOX24 XL-Version - that will be produced in germany.
amo el emprendiminento para gente que necesita de estas cosas que son muy importante en la vida.- me encantaria comprarlo para mi hijita maravillosa qu se desplaza en silla.- FELICITACIONES !!!!
Dear Hesam ! Would U please show me the low, how will be able the hungarian disabled person achieve free the claimant for Kenguru car ? At the moment recent low makes the oposit direction ( must have driving licenc even for mopeds since last year )
Was just on the website for this car. The company owner says she's waiting on funding to start building them for a mile long waiting list of people who want them. What's the hold up? I do not understand? Love this though. Where do you put groceries when going to and from grocery store?
only goes 25mph and is electric. no way you can leave your charger in the parking lot without it being damaged,stolen or vandalized. cool concept but needs to be gas powered,larger and get as high as 50mph. If i had this there would be no way for me to drive to the mall since it cannot go 45mph its not legal on a major road or highway.
Have you seen the ZEV Electric T3-1 or any of their other small cars and trucks? $6300 and they run to 55 mph and range to 90 mph, heater, radio, and roll up windows. I am able to hobble to the car and so ease of access without a wheelchair ramp was my concern.
@Andres Palacio umm think about that for a second. How would you get a wheelchair in it if you had a seat in the back? You'd need a side door which would make it inconvenient in a parking space.
+Noel St. John, it doesn't have, or need, a back seat. It is solely for the use of someone in a wheelchair who needs a way to get around and not be dependent on someone else.
Noel st John. Not necessarily! There are lots of variations. I have a drive from wheelchair van that I enter from the rear door. I have x2 static passenger seats one at the front, one in the middle and and a additional folding seat on the third row.
i tink it is just great! but i have to say that i doesn´t look to safe for the person inside the vehicle. Off: the girl is beautiful, and sorry about my english hahahah.
@Xavierie low=Law ...... achieve free the claimant= How to apply for, or claim a free car through Hungry's Healthcare system ..... licenc = License ... I'll send the link to your Mailbox, but you have to contact Hungry's Healthcare department for detailed information. The regular price is $12,500 in Hungry which is too much and not worth it.
Kenguru filed for bankruptcy 3 years ago. What was left over was bought by a Chinese company which has not been heard from since they bought it. Sorry, my friends, Kenguru was not to be. Millions of us were watching in interest...
Actually we brought the company ,you can check our main website so that can you find driving demo in our factory ,made in China cars are not expensive but when it goes to the states it being so expensive ,because you have to add all the cost ,custom clearances and other expenses
