Green Transporter Introduces Plug-in Hybrid Scooter
28 July 2008
Green Transporter, based in Encinitas, California, has introduced a plug-in hybrid electric scooter—the PI Hybrid—powered by a 50cc engine and a 500W electric hub motor.
At speeds less than 22 mph, the vehicle will operate solely on battery power. At speeds over 20 mph, the vehicle uses blended electric and mechanical power, for speeds up to 45 mph and longer range. The scooter has an electric range of 25 miles.
Green Transporter offers a range of electric vehicles—e-bikes, scooters, personal transporters (the electric chariot, an electric two-wheeler that looks like a Segway), 3-wheelers and ATVs. The plug-in hybrid scooters sell for US$2,295.
