A velomobile is a human-powered vehicle that combines the features of a bicycle and a small car. It is typically enclosed, providing protection from the elements, and is designed for speed and efficiency. Velomobiles often have aerodynamic shapes, which help reduce air resistance, making them suitable for long-distance travel and commuting. These vehicles are usually equipped with three wheels and can be pedaled by one or two riders. Some models also include electric assist, enhancing their performance. Velomobiles are part of the broader category of human-powered vehicles, which promote sustainable transportation and reduce reliance on fossil fuels.
