The green machine:

People are finding alternate ways to power their vehicle and the best way is to make them go electric. Electric versions help save precious fuel and also keep the environment free from potential pollution that is deteriorating the beautiful environment every single day. Two-wheel vehicles are becoming a favorite on traffic loaded streets as they consume less space and can be maneuvered easily even through tight lanes.

Electric E-Schwalbe Scooter

Keeping the pollution and traffic factor in mind an electric scooter named E-Schwalbe has been created. It has been injected with specs that are nothing but impressive. The production of this amazing electric vehicle will begin in the year 2012 and deliveries in Europe will begin in early spring. It will be officially unveiled in United States at the Dealer Expo 2012 that will be take place in the month of February.

Green factor:

The scooter comes draped in an attention-grabbing retro style and looks very classy. E-Schwalbe is a zero-emission ride that promises to keep the environment clean and green. It will make good use of electric power and unlike gas guzzling beasts will not add any harmful particles or gases in the environment. The space saving scooter can be used to move from one place the other on a comfortable way. It can be used every day to commute inside the city and nearby areas. The scooter looks as if it has jumped straight out of the 50s era with modern streaks that can’ be missed. It will be available in two different versions that promise to unfurl an ‘eco’ and ‘boost’ riding experience. This will make the overall experience all the pleasurable and will make the electric ride worth remembering. It will be demonstrated in the United States next year while people of Europe can enjoy a ride on it in the spring season of the year 2012.

The powertrain:

E-Schwalbe Scooter will be made available in two versions: Eco and Boost. The Eco version will be characterized by a top speed of 45 km/h or 30 mph while the Boost version will boast of a top speed of 80 km/h or 50 mph. One can choose from these two flavors that will add to the thrill factor while riding on this eco friendly scooter. But, both the versions have a range of 110 miles, which is quite impressive. A 110 mile range means that the electric scooter can compete head on with a 50 cc and 125 cc scooter. This will let you zoom on the roads at a great speed and shun all rumors that say electrified versions move at a snail’s pace. The engine distributes enough power to make E-Schwalbe a lovable ride and it will leave people in a state of awe every time it rolls on the road with utmost panache.

The highs:

E-Schwalbe is easy to charge and will ride into your heart in no time. It will help take care of congestion and is easy to ride even on streets chocked with traffic. The facade is notable and has a classy appeal. It will force onlookers to tilt their heads in surprise and make eyes do a cartwheel in surprise. Apart from an eye-catching style the eco-friendly characteristics give it an edge over other two-wheelers that move on the roads and gulp down gas. A buyer can choose the scooter from two versions and make it blend with their personality. The tastefully crafted scooter will save space apart from keeping a check on the ever-increasing pollution levels. It will cover a distance of 110 miles on a single charge which is very impressive.

The lows:

The zero-emission scooter is apt for city rides but won’t give you the freedom of going anywhere in terms of covering a long distance like vehicles on gas do. Since, it has been crafted in a way that gives a retro appeal one can’t say how people will accept it in this modern world that is ruled by sleek and dainty looks. The price of E-Schwalbe scooter will definitely burn a hole in your pocket. The price tag can force a person to drop the idea of buying it and opt for something that is more modern. The scooter won’t give you the comfort that comes while traveling in a car and also don’t expect it to protect you from harsh weather conditions like rain and string sunrays.

Cost and availability:

E-Schwalbe scooter will come stashed with a price tag of 4699 Euros and 5799 Euros for the Eco and Boost versions, respectively. The production of this zero-emission scooter will start next year and will be available in Europe in the spring season that follows.
