The XO Move concept scooter looks cool and acts cool. When you're ready to park and disembark, the back folds forward to secure it from being wheeled away. It should easily be able to carry two people and has a wheelbase that can be adjusted to make it more stable at high speed.
It was a group project designed by Camile Baron, Damien Grossemy, Josson Thomas & Kevin Lecoutre.
