Tiny cars... or electric bikes? Two years ago I electrified a normal MTB with a Bafang motor and the total cost was under €1000; many changes of brakes and tires later, it now has 7200 km and is almost as good as new (the battery is not in great shape though and may need to be replaced soon).
This has completely changed my life. I used to ride around in a big motorbike but now use it very rarely if ever.
An electric bike is simpler, infinitely quieter, and almost as fast in congested cities such as Paris.
