Take a free ride in the EcoCab

Posted by Henning Thomsen on Thursday, September 04, 2008 | 0 comments

The Ecocab is human powered, the driver uses the cycle device to get the thing moving, but there is also a small electric motor, which can kick in when times get a little tough. They can carry two to three passengers around the city centre, every day from 10.00am to 19.00pm.

The ride is free because the Ecocab’s are sponsored by businesses and organisations who care about the environment, the vehicle and driver are company colours and the driver may also give you a leaflet to read, but the ride is free!

Several cities have introduced the EcoCab, including Dublin and Toronto.
