Is it a Trike or a Raft?

It’s called the Spira. Its lightweight and apparently it’s extremely safe as well.

“This odd little three-wheel two-seater weighs only 300-odd pounds (130kg) – that’s because it uses a super-lightweight reinforced foam for 90 percent of the bodywork. It gets well over 100mpg from its 110cc engine, it’s light enough to lift by hand, and the foam shell has huge safety benefits, both for the occupants and for the legions of pedestrians, bicyclists and motorcyclists that swarm the roads of Thailand. Oh, and it floats.”

The article goes on to describe the safety of the vehicle, saying “The millions of air cells in the foam act as tiny airbags in a collision, giving both the occupants, and whatever they’ve crashed into, a good degree of protection.”
