# Foldable Electric Scooters The Commute-Case Scooter is Ideal for Your Earth Day Commute By Rahul Kalvapalle | Published 2014-04-07 | Autos Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/earth-day-commute References: [mnn](http://www.mnn.com/green-tech/gadgets-electronics/stories/voila-electric-scooter-folds-up-into-a-briefcase) & [greenenergymotors](http://www.greenenergymotors.com/features.html) 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. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 4.1/10 - Popularity: 37% | Activity: 79% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Autos](https://www.trendhunter.com/autos) ## Key Themes ### Why This Trend Is Growing - **Foldable Electric Scooters:** Opportunity for disruptive innovation: Develop advanced foldable electric scooters with longer battery life and higher speed capabilities. - **Eco-friendly Commuting:** Opportunity for disruptive innovation: Create innovative sustainable transportation solutions that reduce emissions and promote eco-friendly urban commuting. - **Portable Personal Mobility:** Opportunity for disruptive innovation: Design compact and lightweight personal mobility devices that are convenient for everyday use and can be easily carried around. ### Industries Being Reshaped - **Electric Vehicle Manufacturing:** Opportunity for disruptive innovation: Incorporate folding technologies into electric vehicle designs to create versatile and space-saving transportation options. - **Green Technology:** Opportunity for disruptive innovation: Develop sustainable technologies and solutions that contribute to a greener and more environmentally friendly future. - **Smart Luggage and Travel Accessories:** Opportunity for disruptive innovation: Combine mobility and convenience by creating smart luggage and travel accessories that integrate personal mobility features. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Eco-Friendly Electric Scooters](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/urban-electric-scooter.md) - [Collapsible High-Power Electric Scooters](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vidaagogo-escooter.md) - [Foldable Electric Scooters](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/yadea-elite-prime.md) - [Multifunctional Commuter eScooters](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/alienish-ongo.md) - [Impossibly Portable Electric Scooters](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/arma-scooter.md) - [Notalgic Folding Electric Scooters](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/honda-motocompacto.md) - [Foldable Bamboo Electric Scooters](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tom-electric-foldable-scooter.md) - [Electric Commuter Scooters](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/navee-s65.md) - [Bamboo-Bodied Folding Scooters](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bamboo-folding-scooter.md)
