Welcome to an entirely new form of transportation!
The BugE is a Neighborhood Electric Vehicle for people who live and
work within their community.
Between a Bicycle and a Car, the BugE is your personal transporter
designed to do what we all do everyday; go to work, run errands, attend
classes or meetings and visit friends.
Most of us usually drive less than 20 miles a day by ourselves. The BugE
can do that quietly, simply and affordably.
The BugE can reduce the need and costs of driving your automobile
because you use it only when you really need the speed, range and
capacity of a large vehicle.
The rest of the time, your BugE will be a cleaner and more appropriate
option for you, your community and the environment.
You will find your BugE a welcome non-threatening transportation
alternative by motorists, bicyclists and pedestrians.
Please use your BugE appropriately and safely.
Sincerely,
Mark Murphy

This Vehicle would not exist without the support and creativity of the
following brilliant individuals:

Jeff Homolka
And last, but not least, my wife Trish

The BugE is designed as a simple vehicle that can be assembled
without special tools by ordinary people. This concept makes it possible
for the BugE to be built, sold and used as a low cost community based
business opportunity.
The BugE can be assembled by its owner, by individual home-based
businesses or non-profit organizations to provide work or job training
opportunities. We hope it makes a difference.
