There is another post about this but i'll bite since i expected to hear from you..

This is one of the coolest scooters i've seen of all time. I know i can get better range, faster speed, lower cost, better pothole handling, and lower weight with an electric bike but this thing kinda makes me drool.

a bit of the honda moto compo...

i remember Lock posted a bigger e-motobike that was all boxy too..

there's something about mini-scoots that puts a smile on my face...

Actually I heard that the BOXX batteries are fully modular. That it comes with two ports. I then think that range is only the matter of which battery that you put in it that they offer. So I think BOXX is all adaptive and upgradable. I also think the 20 miles is a conservative number and that 40 is more likely the case.. maybe even 100 is possible with the upgrade. I also heard BOXX has an almost 2 to 1 power to weight ratio. Its also got big 10 inch 4 inch wide scooter tires with AWD and a tight wheel base. So I think its pot handling and terrain ability would run over an electric bike like a jeep wrangler.

I wonder how long until i can buy one? I like the idea of modular battery packs. Buy the cheaper version and save up for more battery.
I wonder how the two wheel drive works? From what i can tell it has one mid mounted motor? Maybe the wheel base is so short you don't turn the front wheel?

Did a little research. It has two extremely light hub motors. The store on their website looks operational but i haven't been able to find a review from anyone who actually owns one.

It looks like a police radar gun on wheels. :lol:
