It's a little sad that we need to actually say this, but:
Don't be an asshole or you will be permanently banned.
Respectful debate is totally OK, criticizing a product is fine, but being verbally abusive will not be tolerated.
Focus on discussing the idea, not attacking the person.
I personally think it could be a great alternative to cars and bikes for those who need to take a whole family somewhere or a decent amount of stuff.
Only modifications I would make would be ride-by-wire and an extra set of pedals (so you can have two people pedalling without the annoyance of normal tandem bikes having to pedal at the same rate), and a more powerful motor (only 250W is legal in France, where this was designed, whereas 500W is legal here in Canada)
That pedalling position seems SO awkward, you can't really put much effort in, so this thing is really just an electric-drive vehicle.
It's carrying a solar panel around, which is stupid. Better to strip the weight of the panel/converter/frame and either charge it at a stationary panel or an outlet.
It looks really awkward to get into. The seats is obviously far too high for the lady in the back, and the leftroom too short for the guy in front.
It's a crappy electric rikshaw, built by someone who's never seen a rikshaw.
