Hyundai Introduces Ultralight Electric Scooter

Based on the first prototype unveiled at CES 2017, this minimalist electric scooter weighs just 7,7 kg and can travel up to 20 kilometers on a single charge.

Last mile solution, the car is powered by an electric motor built into the rear wheel. Able to reach speeds of up to 20 km / h, it is powered by a 10,5 Ah lithium-ion battery, which allows you to cover a distance of up to 20 kilometers with a charge. 

The electric scooter from Hyundai, weighing about 7,7 kg, is equipped with a digital display showing the status and charge level of the battery, as well as LED indicators for optimal visibility when driving at night. Ultimately, the manufacturer's teams plan to integrate a regenerative braking system to increase the scooter's range by 7%.

The Hyundai electric scooter, still presented as a prototype, could eventually be offered as an accessory for the brand's vehicles. Once stored in a vehicle, it can be automatically charged through a dedicated charging area, which guarantees the user a fully charged scooter at every stop.

At this stage, Hyundai is not specifying when its electric scooter could be sold. While you wait to find out more, watch the car demo in the video below ...
