Plastic waste used for 3D-printed electric tricycle
The Australian design firm EOOS has developed the first model for an electric tricycle that can be 3D-printed from discarded plastic packaging, left over by supermarkets.
The “ZUV” (zero-emissions utility vehicle) as called by the company, was commissioned for the Climate Care exhibition at Vienna’s Museum of Applied Art and is part of the Vienna Biennale for Change. The design was carried out by EOOS NEXT, the company’s social design arm, in collaboration with manufacturing company The New Raw.
The ZUV can transport two people at a time, as well as two children or an equivalent amount of cargo in the transport box at the front. The hope is that the design could replace some of the car runs that we use to transport heavy loads over short distances. The tricycle has a powered hub motor at the rear wheel and does not need pedals or a bike chain.
