Search on for Pinoy-designed e-trike

sana naman yung design kasama narin yung ergonomic, maraming vehicles dito sa atin sa Pinas na hindi fit sa human body, mga tricycle na napakababa at napakasikip, halos makuba ka na pag naka-upo at mauntog kapa pag nasa lubak, yung mga jeep na yung hawakan sa gitna eh nauuntog ka na, pati na rin yung ilaw sa gitna eh mauuntog ka, tapos eh ang sikip pa, na kapag me dumaan sa gitna eh tatamaan mo yung naka-upo o di kaya naman eh halos mahulog ka na sa upuan sa kitid ng seat.

Lithim Ion powered e trike...... in your dreams.... Ang mahal ng power supply na ito. may e-bike ako and the battery alone cost PHP10k (24v 13ah). Sa e-trike you need more power, kaya uugod ugod na yung may ari ay di pa nya nababawi ang puhunan. Not to mention na ang mahal ng kuryente sa atin ngayon. Ang atupagin ng mga opisyal sa atin ay kung paano nila aalisin ang mga bulok na bus, jeep at tricycle sa karsada. Yun ang number one cost ng polution sa atin.

Alisin muna yung mga talagang nagpoproduce ng pollution gaya ng mga kakarag karag na mga jeep at buses. Ang dami dami nila sa kalsada mga wala namang lamang pasahero. Tsaka na sila magisip nyang e-trike na yan kapag mababa na ang presyo ng kuryente dito sa pinas. Walang magbebenefit dyan kundi yung mga sakim na electric companies. I suggest gumawa na ng nuclear power plants dito sa pinas at damihan ang mga waste-to-energy plants dito sa pinas para maging self-sufficient na tayo. tsssssss.

We have the same volume of trucks, semis, old and semi-dilapidated busses, taxis, cars and motorbikes (private and taxibikes) plying the routes over and over again all thru-out Bangkok as in Manila but not once have I seen pollutants such as thick smoke emissions among any of them. Even took-tooks seem to have a standard of emission-free engines. How is that? Maybe they do the same as in California where they modify the engines against emissions and it works. Expensive but in the long run it works. In Bangkok, you can still sniff good air in the busiest places but never in Manila. Anyone can choke on the air there, damage your lungs and brains coz of the lead content of the air, can even lead to TB or asthma. No disrespect to Filipinos but Is that why Flips are becoming flips? Is it the air? If it is, everyone is screwed. You don't have to look farther than modifying the engines against emissions coz it's been proven safe and workable and sustainable. Electric-run conveyances are not sustainable.

sus, puputi nlng buhok mo, hanggang balita lang yan. yung ngang bagong design ng jeep at bus saan ba napunta? mangilan-ngilan lang gumagamit, karamihan para sa turismo lang. papogi nanaman, parang naman kaya bilhin ni juan dela cruz yan.

DISAPPOINTING CRITERIA!!

The criteria for judging would be based on aesthetics (50 percent), originality (20 percent), safety and functionality (20 percent), and ergonomics (10 percent).

As an Engineer it should be
SAFETY AND FUNCTIONALITY (50 PERCENT)
ERGONOMICS (20 PERCENT)
ORIGINALITY (20 PERCENT)
AESTHETICS (10 PERCENT)

given that DOE offers 50 percent to Aesthetics in criterion mas importante sa kanila na magandang tingnan??? kesa sa safety-functionality and ergonomics nung vehicle? malaking kamalian. kayo na lang goodluck!

I just hope that the Electric Company would not use this as reason to increase their electricity cost.

hello! i have this seen at the film of Trone. Why not produce those e trikes this is for reality.
I support to whom who use it. Good luck Republic of the Philippines.

Sana in the future ipagbawal na ang mga 4 stroke trikes. noise pollution na air pollution pa.

funny how aesthetics matter more than safety and functionality. this is a futile effort by the department of tourism to beautify the tricycle. pathetic really.

6-seater e-trike? Can you imagine the traffic these e-trikes will creat once they hit the road and making it safe for three wheelers to carry 6 passengers? While a typical car is only 5-seater including the driver with 4 wheels. Has DOE gone nuts????

Good job DOE!!! keep it up...just 1 of the good things we can be proud off as a Filipino...

Why not just phase it out? Trikes add to the traffic..not to mention, casualties due to reckless drivers or uneducated drivers. Why not include jeeps in the phasing out too? The same reason as with the trikes! I dont see anything wrong with improving the taxi, bus and train system instead! Or, to add to the list..improve the pedestrian system to encourage walking..results in healthier bodies, pollution-free air, less stress on gas prices, traffic..the list goes on!

Gusto ko yung trike papuntang suhot cave sa Dumalag Capiz, Tricycle na waiting shed pa...

In the first place Tricycle are inefficient, with few passenger and cost more than jeep fare. Plus they always act like they own the road, they can counter-flow anytime they want, and gets angry to other motorist even if it's their mistake.

Second is that, powering electric vehicle, using coal plant is not much that effective, and how would you dispose those toxic batteries after the battery life.

solar energy kaya pwede??? kasi di battery pa din un yayaman na naman ang may ARI ng meralco nyan eh =)

that is good para sa mga subdivision at mga looban para walang maingay at mausok na 2-stroke tricycle. sa manila dapat dagdagan ang capacity ng LRT at MRT saka bawasan ang mga jeepney at buses, luluwag na ang kalsada nabawasan pa ang polusyon. hindi ito madaling gawin pero kaya ng gobiyerno kung seserosyosohin at itabi muna ang personal interest. I hope the baclaran-cavite project of LRTA will push through as well.

maganda eto... he he para ung mga talentado nating estudyante maipamalas nila ung galing nila.more funds pa hindi lang sa public transpo,sa health,sa sandatahang lakas, gamitin ang sariling atin! dami natin available na talentado dyan at tambay.!

babaan muna nila ang presyo ng kuryente.

form, functionality, safety, and cost,GOVERNMENT SINCERITY AND MOST OF ALL...POLITICAL WILL...COZ OUR LIVES IS DICTATED BY POLITICS HERE SA PINAS...
