WUSA
Wusa is a small electric motorcycle that also serves as a power unit for a manual wheelchair. The compact vehicle is intended for urban travel and leisure use. A sturdy steel frame holds a lightweight lithium-ion battery placed low and to the side, so the unit can be used with a wheelchair. Rear-wheel drive allows a top speed of 35 kilometers per hour, and a rear suspension with a long stroke adds comfort. Existing motorcycle parts can be fitted, so the vehicle can be customized. Wusa is designed to appeal to all riders, not only to wheelchair users.
