The footwell looks like a platypus.

Does the Marateuch crab in cross-winds? Actually that would be a good thing, aerodynamically.

Edit: Found more views. Rear wheel is well forward of what I imagined! You can kind of see that in those initial pics but dayum the cg of this trike is not optimal.



It's got sliding pillars AND double ellipticals up front! But there's scarcely any travel in the pillars. Looks like the pillars are an attempt at mechanical shock absorbers since they aren't bearing much of the load.
