Even though the Volvo is older, how does it feel compared to the Lada?

Heavy and sturdy. Well it's at least 400kg heavier too. And almost double the hp and twice the torque

Doesn't seem so bad for something 14 years older. BTW how much you sold the Lada for?

22kw = big bike.
??kw= mid size bike?
??kw =car licence/ <50cc.
Ebike /E motorcycle for the times its warm enough. My cusen built a custom 2wd 12kw(6kw each) freeway worthy (65mph wile peddeling)choper that could be operated on bike path with a flip of a switch. It detuned the power to the 1kw legal limit and tucked away the licence plate.
If your builder skills are there then the most economical way is th build the ebike /motor cycle your self.

I'm only eligible to drive a max 50cc two-wheeler.
And three-wheeler motorbikes.

Ebikes i've been reading in abit though

we have three classes:

Slow light EV, 15km/h and 1KW. No insurance needed and not even any specific laws regarding lights, reflectors, etc. Can drive on walkways at walking speed

light EV, 25Km/h, 1 kw, but max width 80cm. Can be operated on bike paths
needs lights and reflectors

motorized electric bikes
Needs insurance if it can move solely on electric power and no pedal assistance

Do those three-wheelers must have a steering wheel or can they be fitted with a motorcycle-like handlebar? I'm more familiarized with the rules in Uruguay where three-wheelers with a steering wheel are licensed as a car, and the driver must hold a car driving license, while the ones fitted with a handlebar are legally a motorcycle. BTW is there any displacement, power or top speed limit for what three-wheeler you could drive legally there in Finland? What do you think about the Reliant Robin (it may be nearly impossible to find one there though)?
