Okay, so while we aren’t much for modern electric scooters here at ScooterNova, we do appreciate them. More so we appreciate a funky design, which is why our eyes were caught by this concept scooter being previewed at Eicma in Milan today.
Australian-based electric scooter manufacturer Vmoto unveiled their APD Concept today, developed in collaboration with the famous Italian styling house, Centro Stile Pininfarina. Vmoto currently sell electric scooters and motorbikes produced in their Chinese factory under the Super Soco brand, but this is their plan for entering the electric maxi-scooter market.
Vmoto say that, “thanks to Pininfarina’s know-how in the field of aerodynamic studies and the hours spent developing the model in the Pininfarina wind tunnel, a final design has been achieved that Vmoto likes to call ‘Sculpted By The Wind’. We thus find a complex interweaving of surfaces, which give the volumes a three-dimensionality that is also highlighted by the use of different finishes for painting the surfaces.”
It’s a funky looking scooter that is for sure, and with technology moving as fast as it currently is, it may not be long before we start seeing more of these futuristic scooter on the street.
APD Concept by Pininfarina will be on display as an exclusive for the entire duration of EICMA 2023 at the Vmoto stand in Hall 11.
