Flying Electric Scooters

The Volocopter 2 is the First Road-Ready Two-Wheeler That Can Fly

— March 31, 2016 — Autos
The Skyrider One is a truly exceptional and high-tech electric scooter, developed by German physicist and inventor Thomas Senkel -- that has a small feature that distinguishes it from all the hundreds of other electric scooters out there -- it can fly.

This two-wheel electric scooter is equipped with an 8-horsepower rear wheel motor and a 17-horsepower motor that powers the rear-mounted propeller. This setup coupled with ingenious design makes the Skyrider One the very first electric, road-ready two-wheeler that can fly up in the sky.

This vehicle lets you ride down to an airstrip before taking to the skies, while its all-electric drive setup ensures that there's no pollution of the particulate or noise variety. This electric scooter is truly the stuff of dreams, and its arrival into the market is eagerly awaited.
