Aaglander

Aaglander: The horseless cart in 2006 - hold the reins!

First I thought it would be a classic car but no - it`s built today!
Instead of a wheel it has some kind of reins.

The Aaglander is powered by a 719cc, 14.9kW (20HP) diesel engine.
Given that the top speed of the Aaglander is less than 20 km/h and the rubber-tired rear drive wheels have an outer diameter of 110cm, a special gear mechanism was required. The total of transmission of ca. 1:70 gives the Aaglander very high torque so that it can cope with the steepest of gradients.

I would get one, as long as the price was under 20grand. I think it would be great to cruise around in that thing, and I like the big torque because there's a lot of inclines to and from town in my area.

That's funky! I would buy that thing for sure if it wasn't too expensive. How about you arrive in such a thing at school instead of a bike or scooter...

Yeah, I just think that predating the steering wheel is a little too retro, at least for me.
