I will first introduce myself: I am Chris van Malkenhorst General Manager of Drymer
By the way, my commercial manager Jan Veldman is standing on the heineke square
He has the cabro version, we drive with the business edition of the drymer.
The vehicle is unique, not only because it has electric engine bike support..
you can still bike while the electric motor supports you while driving.
Nice sportive and confortable drive to your work, covered
unique is the tilting train, if you take a corner...
I have see this also with the carver, is it comparable? It is...
we improved it even further.
What is the tilt angle when you make a sharp turn?
Shall I show it? Yes please.
In this way...
You could take the turn like this. The question is: do you really want to go that fast.
19-22 mph is fast enough. This is how you make the turn then.
You can see how unique this vehicle is. We have this moment...
the last prototype fase.
We are busy to go from development into production end of this year (2009).
At the end of this year we will start selling. Is something already known about the price?
Yes that is known.
The business edition, which has a lot of accessoires, will cost 6000 euro.
The leisure version, the cabrio, will cost between 2500-3000 euro.
Can you tel something about the specifications? Yes, the specifications: it has a 48V system...
Also an 48V 16A battery, range 50 miles
We make use of the newest materials like carbon.
and of course aluminium. See the front train.
You mentioned aluminium and carbon, so the vehicle is very light? Yes..
that is correct. We try to acomplish, we are busy with the latest...
weight reductions, to end up between the 55-60 kg.
That's quite impressive for such a large vehicle. Yes that's correct.
That means we have looked at all types of material and production technologies...
to not only get a lightweight Drymer but also an affordable Drymer.
Do you need a driver license or can everybody drive this?
That one of the most unique features. It is for the Dutch traffic law still a bike...
You do not require a helmet, belt and insurrance. You are allowed to drive on a bike lane.
The State Secretary has anounced bike highways, perfect for the Drymer.
Use the Drymer for driving to your work, large companies or schools with many...
locations, we call that intra-traffic, can also use the Drymer.
And for brokers and recreation centra
Very interesting. Thanks for the interview. You are welcome.
You have a good "Clean Transport Day" (event). Thank you. Ok.
