Bo launched the first production electric scooter in the form of the Bo M, which is defined by its sleek look. It has a foundation of a thick and strong aluminum body that curves into the deck in a seamless manner. It also removes the ability to fold down the neck, which is not friendly for storage or traveling.
It does, however, create more space to create a monocoque body and can be parked outside like a car. In comparison to its prototype, the Bo M has a thicker cowl finish and a taller and longer deck. The silhouette is unique and remains the same from the prototype and many of the changes take place internally.
