Will do! I am trying every angle possible, it seems 80 were bought by the swiss goverment for testing purposes. I have contact Cree themselves but to no avail.

I really can't understand why Cree couldn't get investment backing for this machine. I reckon it's the best designed EV around in terms of practicality, cost of production and engineering, and best of all it looks great in a spiderish sort of way... but then I'm biased as I love three-wheelers.

I agree I have researched for months, the battery layout, weight, the central driving position, eg. great for any country. Everything is very well conceived. The only thing that come close is the is the Triac. But it is a left hooker!

Unfortunately I can't read German :( I guess it's German it's written in?

Yes it is German, but the Sam Cree is in Switserland.
You can contact the seller for more information: j.zimmermann@biral.ch
