The Commute-Case is an eco-friendly, portable electric scooter that would make for the perfect Earth Day commute. This scooter can be converted into a briefcase, meaning you don't have to worry about parking it or losing it -- you can carry it around with you!
When the Commute-Case's wheels, footrests and handlebars are folded out, the suitcase transforms into a versatile urban scooter that can scoot along at up to 12.5 miles per hour, which is about four times faster than you'd be traveling if you were walking on a busy city sidewalk. It can travel up to 25 miles between charges -- using only 10 cents worth of electricity along the way -- making for an emissions-free Earth Day commute.
The Commute-Case weighs only 27 pounds, not taking into considering any stuff you might pack inside it. It is the brainchild of a company called Green Energy Motors.
