That is Lightfoot, a photo voltaic scooter conceived by San Francisco-based R&D outfit Otherlab that, it claims, can be available for purchase within the US from January. Probably the most eye-catching characteristic are the 2 aspect panels coated in photo voltaic cells that can hopefully maintain you from needing a charger. Within the hole between the 2, nonetheless, is a reasonably capacious cargo compartment with nearly 1.6 cubic ft of house. That needs to be greater than sufficient to haul your gear to and from work, or to select up some groceries while you’re out and about. The padded seat and footplates, too, are designed to hold the rider and a further passenger when required, too.

Specs-wise, there’s a pair of 750W brushless DC motors with a prime pace of 20 miles per hour, producing 90Nm of peak torque, which ought to hopefully be sufficient to scale the hills round SF (and wherever you might be). They’re wired as much as a 1.1kWh battery that the corporate guarantees will ship a spread of 37 miles on a single cost. The 2 120W panels on both aspect will trickle cost the battery when on the highway or parked up outside.
