micromobility - Bikes, scooters, boards: Whatever floats your goat, this is micromobility
Ebikes, bicycles, scooters, skateboards, longboards, eboards, motorcycles, skates, unicycles, heelies, or an office chair: Whatever floats your goat, this is all things micromobility!
"Transportation using lightweight vehicles such as bicycles or scooters, especially electric ones that may be borrowed as part of a self-service rental program in which people rent vehicles for short-term use within a town or city.
micromobility is seen as a potential solution to moving people more efficiently around cities"

It's a little sad that we need to actually say this, but:
Don't be an asshole or you will be permanently banned.
Respectful debate is totally OK, criticizing a product is fine, but being verbally abusive will not be tolerated.
Focus on discussing the idea, not attacking the person.

This seems extremely low for even an EV car at under 8km/kwh. Ebikes can often do 100km/kwh at 32kmh speed. Aptera design can do 16km/kwh with double the battery (and weight of battery). Citroen Ami would be a heavier vehicle, cheaper for being much simpler, and gets 14km/kwh with 1/4 of the battery (but 45kmh top speed). Very surprising their range is that low, and no way it should be.
Covered bikes add a lot of weight and expense, as does tilting. Covered bikes increase drag as well, and reduce range. Most designs will rattle if not "over weighted". Still a roof would allow better weather resistance to outdoor parking. Could hold solar
I still like a pedal system for both speed control and maintaining low speed power contributions with exercise. 70lbs and 30kmh is a limit to where useful contribution can be made, and a winner in this category is going to be something much lighter meant for bike speeds instead of car/motorcycle speeds.
