Hyundai thinks of an electric scooter as an accessory for its next cars
The idea in question relates to an electric scooter made specifically by the same car manufacturer to better fit inside the luggage compartments of its cars and be recharged by the electric system of the same so as to have at its disposal a convenient means to cover the so-called last mile.
Hyundai, when it comes to new forms of transport, looks ahead in many directions, a few days ago showed its latest concept related to the world of electric cars and now instead offers a curious starting point for an interesting equipment designed to enrich its next cars and provide the end user with a means to use to move easily from the point where he parks his car to the final destination.
The idea in question relates to an electric scooter, made specifically by the same car manufacturer to be as compact as possible and fit in the best part of the luggage of their cars, and be recharged directly from the electrical system of the same so as to have always at your disposal a convenient means to cover the so-called last mile, or the small terminal movements that may be the most congested and difficult.
DongJin Hyun, head of the Hyundai Motor Group robotics team:
” This is the scooter made to be mounted on vehicles that could be present in future Hyundai Motor Group vehicles. We want to make our customers’ lives as simple and pleasant as possible ” Our electric scooter makes commuting the first and last mile a joy, while helping to reduce congestion and emissions in urban centers. ”
A very compact scooter, weighing about 7.7 kg, foldable into three sections, equipped with two LED headlights and two rear lights.
As far as traction is concerned, this Hyundai scooter is equipped with a cushioned front wheel, an engine integrated into the rear wheel able to make it travel up to a maximum speed of 20 km/h with a range that should reach around 20 km, thanks to the 10.5 Ah battery.
An idea certainly already seen in other types and facets, but this of Hyundai is particularly attentive to some small aspects that greatly simplify the use of a secondary vehicle for moving before and after using the car: a scooter characterized from ease of transport, recharge on board and may be supplied with the car could be a valid and interesting accessory for everyday travel.
