Mini would be unveiling an electric scooter at the Paris Motor Show. Ideal for urban travelling the escooter takes scooting into a future of green rides. The Smart escooter is packed with a 48-volt lithium-ion battery pack that pumps out 4 KW to help to help the two wheeled electric wonder reach a top speed of 28 mph. The escooter has a disc shaped wheel hub motor in the rear that frees up space for under seat storage normally reserved for gasoline engine.
The smart ride remains juiced thanks to the front mounted solar panels that harness solar energy or else the escooter can always hope to rely on standard household power to get recharged in just 3 hours.
