Y'all may have seen this or heard of this before but I just came across this video. This thing has some pretty amazing engineering in it.

That certainly is an amazing piece of transportation engineering.  I wonder where the batteries are hiding?  It will be interesting to see if there is a market for this vehicle.

I'm imagining these paired with BMW's fleet technology... goodbye rush hour.

The Ryno was discussed on this forum back in February, but that video looks new to me. It sure is an unusual machine!

For some older videos and pictures, check out the thread:

Batteries are probably mounted in the center of the wheel.

Won't be able to fit a very large pack - perhaps 500 Wh - but at 10-15 mph, it should only need 20-25 Wh/mile.
