BMW Concept E Electric Scooter

-

The electric maxi-scooter concept rode onto BMW’s main presentation stage along with the Husqvarna E-go youth-oriented electric motorcycle concept. The two-wheeled concept models are not close to becoming production models; they were there mainly to help set the stage for BMW’s i3 and i8 electric car concept models which also debuted in Frankfurt.




BMW did re-affirm it will introduce two premium maxi-scooters by the end of the year but both will be powered by two-cylinder combustion engines.



Back to the Concept e, BMW says its designers sought to create a vehicle that looked clean and efficient yet agile. The front uses the same “split-face” design found on other BMW models such as the R1200GS and S1000RR. The front panel/leg shield is shaped like a boomerang, suggesting an aerodynamic look.



BMW was light on the technical details however. BMW’s i cars use over 60 volts of electricity, enough for BMW to claim the Concept e offers similar acceleration to a gas-powered maxi-scooter.


BMW also claims a range of 100 km (62 miles) on a fully-charged battery, with the help of regenerative braking. Of course, it would probably help if the scooter used conventional mirrors instead of the Concept e’s LCD screens and rear-facing cameras. Still, BMW claims a charge time of under 3 hours.

  The recent frenzy run has caused the whole town discussing on the jackpot, which hit around RM93 million now (and sure the business is really good at Berjaya Toto). I wonder if it will hit the all time high of above RM100 million soon. If you guys are not aware, the jackpot hit at high previously on 4 April 2022, almost 3 years back at RM97.75million if I'm not mistaken. What was the number then? 5, 12, 20, 22, 29, 41. I would not want to encourage gambling, but what strategy one can play from here is more of the discussion I want to discuss on: 1. Do your home work.

Who is this Anri Suzuki? Anri Suzuki from Japan. Do you think she is beautiful? :) Anri Suzuki is actually a very famous porn star in Japan.
