Alright, you Street Techies who ride scooters, try not to laugh, and you bikers in the audience, try not to hork in your Keiser helmets. It looks like something out of a Frauenfelder comic, like something Kata Sutra might drive, a sleek, barely-there electric scooter that can get 50 miles on a 50 cent charge.
This is something I might personally be interested in. I don’t drive a car and there are tons of stores and restaurants within one or two miles of my house. I’ve thought about a Segway, but they just look too dorky. This baby, a silver jump suit, and a silver helmet (or maybe orange suit and a DEVO flowerpot hat) and you’re talkin’ BOLD statement. The bad news is the Electric Scoot only goes 18mph tops. The price is 1500 Euros (about US$1,800).
For those scooter purists out there (who are still gas conservation conscious), this may be more to your liking.
