			=UELVEs MBC=

			The [[UELVEs MBC]] is a libre-licensed 100kg 2-passenger concept vehicle currently in development, with off-the-shelf downhill mountainbike parts, twin Sur-Ron eBike motors, and using 3D-printed space-frame nodes and fibre-reinforced pipes, with the GABoats (Geodesic Aerolite Boats) technique and materials for its outer skin. Anticipated top speed if the expected drag coefficient can be achieved: over 100mph. Fuel efficiency (again dependent on the Cd): around 90mpg at 100mph, and over 200mpg at 55mph.

	A custom mini moke can be created for the purpose of creating a [[Eco Mechanics Races\|community of green mechanics]] which also organise races (on regular karting tracks). The mini moke design will form the "glue" to create this community due to the fact that unlike with regular karts, no trailer is needed to transport the racing vehicle (instead, the mini car can be driven itself to the track, and even also prove useful for day to day activities, meaning it isn't just an expense done for hobby purposes).
