XOR’s folding electric scooters: a new relationship with your wheels
Thursday, November 19th, 2009
One of the fun things we’ve got to look forward to as electric vehicles become more and more common is a changing of the relationship we have with our wheels. The XO2 electric scooter is a fine example – it’ll behave fairly similarly to a regular electric scooter on the road, but when you get where you’re going, instead of parking it on the sidewalk where it’s exposed to rain, thieves and vandals, you can fold it up and bring it into your apartment or office, and plug it in to charge. We talk a lot about the coming population explosion here on Gizmag, with billions more people to be crammed into our urban centers in the next 50 years. Devices like these seem tailor-made for the type of living we’re inevitably moving towards.
XOR’s XO2 scooter range couldn’t be more simple at heart – they’re tiny, lightweight electric scoots built for urban practicality and convenience. With a top speed between 60kmh (for the XO2 50 Urban) and 105kmh (for the XO2 125 Urban), they charge to 80% within a couple of hours and offer a range of between 50 and 70km depending on how fast you’re going.
