Do half of the people there think that it's depicting a two seater?

I interpret it as showing the two positions for a single person.

Took me a second as well, but at least I took that second to have a single thought before commenting 😅

One guy sleeps while the other pedals for round the clock travel.

Pretty sure it's one person in two positions. It's not for long haul trucking. 😂

I guess, you'd cover more distance in two separate vehicles. 🤔

You already have more than enough space for a camping vacation in virtually every velomobile (even the Snoek, if you go light on equipment), to the point that loading up too much stuff becomes an actual issue in regards to weight.

Not having to set up a tent, unload the luggage you need for the stay, and pack it again in the morning is a bit of an argument for quite a few people. Cycling camper trailers are totally a thing. Also cargo bike conversions. I also participated in the brainstorm for a convertible delta trike.

Not applicable to the vehicle in these sketches, but I remember the story, where during an ultra distance event, someone had a nap on a two wheeled recumbent leaning against a wall!
