Shinji Hanoura关于New Models · Scoops的点评

The electrification of first-class mopeds is a new playground of specs for me. The ICON e: has achieved both smooth acceleration and low-center-of-gravity stability. The design philosophy is completely different from the old 50cc bikes, and just tracking the craftsmanship of the practical equipment gets my pulse up.

The near-future design looks great — I could genuinely want one for city riding.

I think mopeds are exactly where electric fits best — you only use them for short trips around town anyway.

Low center of gravity for stability is nice, but what actually matters is the range — how much is it?

Apparently the background is that emissions regs are making 50cc engines untenable now.
