I wish they were more popular so the prices would come down. There's not enough demand to have an efficient assembly line yet. If there was they'd probably be half the price.
There is hope for You.

A new model, the Bülk 4 more, is going to be introduced at the Spezi. Actually the first dealers already have vehicles available.

It is a simplified Bülk, with open wheel wells and made of glass fiber instead of carbon fiber, battery lights and 1x11 gearing. Designed for production in larger quantities. Introductory price 6000 €. Not quite as stiff, not quite as fast, but apparently sufficient.

One of the developers is from the USA. AFAIK he is also a dealer for velomobiles. I do not have any idea on the pricing in the states.

German speaking people or DeepL users might also have a look here: https://www.velomobilforum.de/forum/...lomobil.73113/

And here the official announcement: https://www.velomobileworld.com/de/e...ll-april-2024/
