Hands-On With Organic Transit?s Pedal-Solar Electric Hybrid Vehicle, ?The Elf?

ELFmodelOur week in the Southeast gave us plenty of memorable moments, but perhaps my favorite of the entire trip was when I stumbled upon the Elf — a pedal-solar electric hybrid vehicle from Organic Transit in Durham, NC. It's one of those products that — given the right financing and marketing — could be completely disruptive in Urban areas. The vehicles come in two models currently, The Elf which can hold up to 150lbs, and the TruckIt, which can handle an 800lb payload. Both have solar charged batteries that can last for 30 miles before switching to pedaling mode, and they have turn signals, brake lights and front head lights. They even have side mirrors. I stole away Rob Cotter, CEO at Organic Transit, to tell us a little more about what I like to call "sunbikes."
