Smart and Mini to showcase electric scooters in Paris Motor Show

Electric scooters ain’t any screamers and surprises, as we’ve seen Yamaha with their EC-03 being a convenient electric scooter for daily use. But it’s really great news to see more automakers joining in the bandwagon for a cleaner earth. We’ve seen a fair share of EV being showcase as concepts, but we’ve not seen many electric scooters yet. Smart, a division of Daimler AG, and BMW-owned MINI, will be showing their concept electric scooter in Paris, at the end of the month. Ironic isn’t it, as we shall yet again witness the great rivalry of BMW and Mercedes Benz, indirectly. Check out the sketches.
Along with a few sketches of the concept electric model, MINI has revealed plans of showcasing the scooters in three different trims. One will even feature a design similar to the MINI E project, their plug-in electric Cooper. No other details about the scooter have been released, but speculation has pointed to the use of lithium ion batteries in MINI’s bikes.
Similarly, apart from a few sketches of their scooter concept, Smart has revealed very little of its electric concept. We’ll definitely keep you updated as more information is released at the Paris show.
