Vectrix VX 1


This good-looking all-electric scooter is motorcycle-sized and motorcycle-heavy at 515 pounds, with a 60-inch wheelbase and 30-inch seat height. The VX-1 is highway legal, though you won’t be passing any Vettes or Vipers—the top speed is just 62-mph. Still, it can accelerate to that speed in 7.5 seconds. And that’s not too shabby. Though it’s rather large—similar in size to the Suzuki Burgman—Vectrix plans include a lower, narrower seat for smaller riders.
