Swiss Army Scooter!
Hot on the heels of my post about the FIDO Electric Scooter, here's another cool concept that references another iconic brand. Taking more design cues from the classic Swiss Army Knife, and Brompton folding bikes than a Vespa or Lambretta, I think the Volitude is a nifty looking little scooter. Designed to be easily folded and rolled… you could easily stow
this in the boot of a car, a locker or under the stairs. Although, having struggled with folding a double buggy, I'd like to see that in the real world!
Powered by a 250 Watt inegrated motor, with a Lithium Polymer battery, thehttp://www.voltitude.com/product/ specs sound very impressive. And because you pedal it too (the electric motor is jus there to provide "assistance" ) you won't need a motorcycle license, as it is classified as an electric assisted cycle in European countries. You can even use it in cycle lanes.
If you like the look of the Volitude and you want one, you'll have to be living in Switzerland if you actually want to get your hands on one of the few being produced. The good news is Volitude are taking pre-orders for International shipping now, and they'll let you know the final specs (and, importantly what it's going to cost you), and you can choose whether you want one or not.
Check out their website if you're interested.
