amphibious 3-wheelers--Bethany Swinehart

A new invention for travel in Asia, are foam bodied three wheelers. They are safe in a collision and better yet the foam allows them to float. Their light weight bodies allow them to be fuel efficient but the foam has such a large volume and abundance that they are protective. It weighs around 300 pounds and surpasses 100 mpg. One reason these automobiles are being tested in Asia and Thailand is due to the dense populations in their cities. These mobiles are being designed so not only the occupants are safe but also the pedestrians.
