The MUV-e Scooter is aiming to redefine how urbanites travel around cities. The MUV-e Scooter was created by Amir Zaid and Benny Shimon. It is powered by an electric battery and has a retro-futuristic design. (The retro part comes from its structure; when is the last time you saw a stand-up scooter outside of apart from the one Marty McFly road in "Back to the Future?") The scooter can be folded for easy storage once you reach the home/office.
The MUV-e Scooter is powered solely by electricity and can hit a top speed of 15 mph and has a max range of between seven and 15 miles. While those specs leave a bit to be desired, it's important to note that the MUV-e Scooter is still in the early stage of development. Zaird and Shimon plan to release two versions of the scooter, with the luxe model featuring smartphone integration.
