Electric micro-mobility solutions are not yet fully adopted for extreme weather conditions. There is almost no reliable electric micro-mobility solution for areas covered by snow for more than half the year. How can a solution address the challenges of moving through the snow with zero carbon footprint? Submissions that answer this question should also address the following design criteria:

• Context of use: 
  • Recreational Use
  • Snow covered roads
  • Backcountry riding
  • Frozen Lake and ice fishing
  • Towing
  • Exercise (pedal assist version) is a bonus

• Formfactor: 
  • Stable yet manoeuvrable
  • Skis, tracks, or a combination of both
  • Suspension
  • The cockpit can be enclosed/weatherproof or open.
  • Optional: Second passenger seat
  • Optional: Cargo area

• Performance and Constraints: 
  • Max Speed: 50km/h
  • Motor Power: 3kW
  • Maximum Weight: 75kg
  • Combining human and electric power is a bonus
  • Transportable using SUV/Minivan (Dimensions: 50” x 70” or 127 cm x 178 cm)
  • Electrical Braking with the addition of friction braking if necessary 
  • Visible in low light conditions using front lights and reflectors
