Description
The Sanho series is based on two design ideas. The first one is that the tire is a genetic idea from the progressive movement of a snake. The tires air pressure travels around the tire weaving back and forth, simulating the movements of a snake so that air pressure pushes the air forward.
The Sanho series is based on a zigzag traction system that provides exceptional stability and motion. The Sanho series is a one seat vehicle designed for the city and the urban lifestyle in the year 2015. Especially, the Sanho series is not to be determined by the road shape. The new technology in the tire system allows for unlimited driving in any road conditions, unpaved roads, sand and stone.
