Get The Drive’s daily newsletter The latest car news, reviews, and features. Email address Sign Up Thank you! Terms of Service & Privacy Policy. A British outfit called Bo makes a sleek little electric scooter called the Model-M. The best variant claims a 22 mph top speed and a 40-mile range for $2,500. Sounds pricey but practical. The prototype Turbo model is another story—it’s gunning for triple-digit speeds at the Bonneville salt flats next month. Bo has been around since 2022, but seems to

This All-Terrain Electric Scooter Punches Above Its Budget-Friendly Price

Table of Contents This All-Terrain Electric Scooter Punches Above Its Budget-Friendly Price The Turboant R9 is the most powerful electric scooter in the company's current lineup. That would mean more if Turboant didn't specialize in inexpensive models best suited for casually zipping around town and last-mile commutes. On the other hand, at $550, the R9 overdelivers on features and performance with its 500-watt rear brushless motor, 10-inch knobby tubed tires and a design aimed at riders who wa

Phones with both a cooling fan and water resistance don’t exist, until now

OPPO TL;DR OPPO has announced the K13 Turbo and K13 Turbo Pro in China. These new phones have cooling fans and are water-resistant. The OPPO K13 Turbo series starts at ~$251 in China. We’ve seen a few gaming phones over the years with built-in cooling fans. Unfortunately, the need for a cooling fan vent means these phones aren’t water-resistant. Thankfully, OPPO’s latest phones buck this trend. OPPO announced the K13 Turbo and K13 Turbo Pro in China today, and both of these budget gaming ph

This Bonkers 100 MPH E-Scooter Is a Ludicrous Safety Hazard

Designed by former F1 engineers. Pure danger. Turbo Mode A company made up of former F1 racing engineers has unveiled an outrageous e-scooter that can reach a top speed of north of 100 miles per hour — and covers a whopping 150 miles on a single charge. The bizarre contraption, dubbed The Turbo, was developed by UK-based e-scooter company Bo, whose existing lineup targets the more premium end of the last-mile — or last 150 miles, in this case — mobility market. The Turbo's specs are borderli

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

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-
