The "AGAO" is a kickboard-type special designated lightweight vehicle equipped with a large vertical solar panel on the front. Because it is a special designation, if limited to 6 km/h, it can also be used on sidewalks. You can choose either a sitting type or a standing type when purchasing, and it is possible to ride while sitting like on a motorcycle.

The biggest feature is the solar capability, which allows for about 1 km of travel with approximately 15 minutes of sunlight. The daily range is about 20 km. Additionally, the built-in battery can store enough power for approximately 30 km of travel, resulting in a maximum daily range of about 50 km. With this much range, it can be utilized in a wide range of scenarios from commuting to shopping.

It is equipped with a charging port for an AC adapter, allowing for charging from a wall outlet, but it seems it is not necessary except in emergencies. Of course, it doesn't incur electricity costs and can be used during disasters, which is nice.

The output is a maximum of 800W, making it easy to tackle slopes.

The front and rear tires are 10 cm wide and large in diameter, providing a sense of security. Additionally, the four suspensions at the front and rear move flexibly, responding well to the unevenness of the road, allowing for a smooth ride.

The width of the step is wide at 30cm, providing excellent ride comfort.

As for the power, the motor mounted on the rear wheel is rated at 500W and can go up to 800W, making it powerful enough to easily go uphill.

At the test ride event, 94.5% responded that they would like to use it.

In addition, as a convenient feature, you can lock and check travel records via an app, just like in a car. Furthermore, you can charge your smartphone from the USB port, and it seems it could also serve as a solar battery during emergencies.

At the trial event held in Mihara City, Hiroshima Prefecture, many participants were over 60 years old, and everyone expressed a desire to use the product. It seems that the ease of mobility is well-received, and it is expected to be a new means of transportation in areas where living without a car is difficult.

The colors available are white, soul red, dark gold, and black. Why not enjoy future mobility with sustainable transportation?
