The Eco-Spider by SWINCAR is a powerful and rugged four-wheeled electric vehicle with spider-like arms that move independently to tackle tough off-road terrain, working with the power of gravity and centrifugal force. The pendulum seat allows the driver to remain level and keeps all four wheels in contact with the ground on the steepest inclines and while climbing obstacles.

The friendly to use controls grouped around the steering wheel make driving easy. The SWINCAR Eco-Spider is controlled using hands only, making it very accessible, even to persons of reduced mobility.

SWINCAR combines high performance and great driving sensation with silent running and low environmental footprint. A one of a kind eco tour adventure!
