An electric scooter that accelerates faster than a Tesla Model 3? No thanks!

is transportation editor with 10+ years of experience who covers EVs, public transportation, and aviation. His work has appeared in The New York Daily News and City & State. Personally, I think electric scooters are a little goofy, but I’m glad they exist. I know a lot of people who don’t want to drop a couple thousand dollars on an electric bike, but still want the joy and freedom of zipping around town at a modest 18mph, while being able to hop on a subway or bus if needed. They want somethin

This is the daftest e-scooter in the world

The minds behind Bo’s sublime e-scooter met each other while working for the advanced engineering arm at (F1 team) Williams. Their mission was to take their knowledge of designing and building some of the world’s fastest cars to build a better e-scooter. But while they no longer work for a Formula One team, they can’t quite shake that desire to build vehicles that travel at preposterously daft speed. Which is why the company has today unveiled The Turbo, a souped-up version of the standard Bo e-

This Turbo Escooter Wants to Set a Guinness World Record

The fastest I've ever ridden on an electric kick scooter is close to 40 miles an hour, and it was terrifying. UK-based escooter company Bo wants to go even faster—more than 100 miles per hour—and set a Guinness World Record in the process. Bo is a relative newcomer in the micromobility space, and its team is peppered with former members of Williams Formula One Advanced Engineering.

The UK needs to deal with its e-scooter problem

E-scooters could be a vital tool to eliminate unnecessary car journeys, cutting emissions and journey times. Unfortunately, the UK is the last major European nation to not allow them to be ridden on most public roads. They've proliferated illegally anyway, and are now an issue the country can no longer afford to drag its heels on.

Granted, most people will be able to go a little further since you're probably not 6'4" and 250 pounds, but the Niu just has a smaller battery than th

This Electric Scooter is 57% off the Original Price, Amazon Wants to Clear Its Stock Before Prime Day

Electric scooters are the newest hip means of transportation with a great combination of convenience, speed, and style. With so many available models, it’s sometimes difficult to find one that provides solid performance along with dependable safety features. The Maxshot electric scooter is the intelligent choice if you require both—and now it’s affordable enough to ignore. Originally priced at $399, the Maxshot scooter has lost a lot of its original price over time with its all-time lowest pric
