About
The patented dual mode TriTrack is a 4-passenger electric vehicle with 5 cents per mile energy cost and with plenty of cargo space. It can be driven on the ground up to 70 mph and on an elevated monorail at a breathtaking 180 mph. It fits the legal description of a 3-wheel motorcycle in all 50 states, so it can be driven on the road like any other vehicle. On the ground, the TriTrack is powered by a battery mule stored underside of the car. When it gets on the monorail, the battery mule drops out of the TriTrack and a linear motor built into the monorail accelerates the car to cruising speed. A smaller battery inside the car maintains its speed on the monorail and a linear generator recaptures the car's energy as it comes down off the rail. When the car reaches the ground again, it picks up a different, fully charged battery mule and continues to its final destination.
