Video: Human powered car can go as fast as 60 mph

Posted on 14 October 2008. Tags: human powered car, Humancar, Humancar FM-4

This human powered car has been built by a company called HumanCar, Inc. It is called FM-4, and it offers space for four people. Two facing backwards and two forwards. To get the car moving they have to use their arms and upper body.

A human powered car will go only as fast as its occupants make it go. Looking at the video they achieve a speed of 60 mph. That sounds dangerously fast on something that Flintstones might want to use. There is also a model with solar roof in the works that costs 15,000 USD!!!! How crazy is that?
