Intriguing IKOO Electric Scooter
By James Grahame
The only retro thing in this post is the word scooter. I'm at peace with that. The $999 IKOO Transporter looks like it escaped from the year 2055 and beamed purposefully into your garage. It features a distinctive surgical stainless steel alloy frame, folding seat and a 600W electric motor capable of propelling you or your loved ones to a peppy 18 mph (29 km/h).
With a range of up to 18 miles, the IKOO is the ideal vehicle for a commute to the train or across campus. Since it folds and weighs a puny 70 lbs, you could even sneak it past security and into your cube for the day. Dual disk brakes are standard, and a $200 accessory pack includes such spine tingling add-ons as halogen lights, rear view mirrors, a seat extension, kick stand, front foot pegs, and an extra ignition key.
This little scooter is unique and you won't look like a complete dork riding one. Hell, it might even get you a few dates.
