E-Scooter
Short for electric scooter. These are very underrated portable motor vehicles that come in several different classes. They used to be quite unreliable ten years ago, but now with their improved lithium-ion batteries and powerful electric motors they can attain speeds from 15 miles per hour for entry level models up to a whopping 70 miles per hour for the most expensive, elite models. My personal electric scooter can reach a top speed of 50 miles per hour, and one custom built e-scooter made from carbon fibre hit 80 miles per hour. They can also travel a hella long distance on a single charge of their batteries too, anywhere from 10 miles for entry level models, all the way up to 110 miles for the elite models. This is all in a package that weighs under 100 pounds too, and their small wheels and folding mechanisms allow for great portability. Also, even though their horsepower is less than most 125cc gas scooters, the instant and sheer torque of their motors enables some of them to accelerate to highway speeds in just a few seconds! Popular entry level brands include Gotrax, Swagtron, Hiboy and Ninebot, while fast high quality performance brands include Dualtron, VSETT, Nami and Kaabo.
After picking up a dual motor VSETT 10+ e-scooter, I smoked that 400 pound redneck in his 1990 F-150 off the traffic line.
