Paris Motor Show 2010: The MINI Scooter E
Geschreven op 24-9-2010 - Erik van Erne. Geplaatst in Agenda, Vervoer en OV
MINI is set to unveil a new concept vehicle at the 2010 Paris Auto Show but unlike previous designs from the iconic British brand, this one will only have two wheels. The concept is the new MINI Scooter E, the latest line in electric vehicles from MINI and the first with two wheels.
These teaser sketches of the concept reveal a fairly conventional scooter design, with trademark MINI styling and retro cues. Power will come from a small electric motor running on lithium-ion batteries and driving the rear wheel.
The new MINI Scooter E concept is also the latest vehicle from BMW’s Project i division, a research think tank whose task is to develop a number of solutions for a vehicle designed for congested city motoring. The first development of Project i is already on the roads in the form of the previous MINI E, and now BMW is set to up the ante with the unveiling of the new MINI Scooter E.
