One issue I see with any three wheeler is during snowy weather, dragging the rear wheel through the snow ridge that is left in between the two tracks that are clear. The main reason these vehicles choose three wheels is to make it a motorcycle so they don't have to comply with crash testing. Which would hurt performance and make it cost $20,000. We already have the MiEV that nobody wants. It would be more useful year around in the snowy states if it had four wheels. But the regulators would have to allow a new class of light four wheeled vehicle that doesn't have to be a rolling tank. Having three wheels is what finally killed the Aptera in the end.
