The two-wheeled Electric TP Scoot    26/03/2011

The two-wheeled Electric TP Scoot

 

Electric Scooter Shop is delighted to announce its launch at UK Aware today (Friday 25th March), when it will be showing off one of the hottest new electric urban vehicles (EUV) to hit the streets of the UK this year. 

The two-wheeled TP Scoot has been wowing town and city commuters in Germany for nearly ten years with its slick design, great agility and easy charging.  It has only now been brought to the UK by a group of entrepreneurs aiming to revolutionise personal transport.  

It can be seen on display and test driven on the indoor test track at UK Aware on 25th and 26th March at Olympia and at The Gadget Show Live from 12th April.

With petrol prices sky high and ever increasing, the 100% electric TP Scoot it anticipated to become popular with everyone ranging from city commuters to police forces and courier companies, as they endeavor to cut transport costs and find more eco-friendly ways to travel.  With electricity costing around 1p per mile, the TP Scoot can save hundreds of pounds on petrol, as well as enjoying zero rated road tax, low insurance and congestion zone exemption in London.

Spokesman Rudi Schogger says, “The TP Scoot is one of the most innovative and simple solutions for personal transport I have come across.  It is compact enough to be stored in the corner of any hallway or reception, or folded down to be stored under a desk or in a car boot, making transport completely door to door.  It can be charged at home overnight, work or even topped up for half an hour in any obliging coffee shop.  It’s also a beautifully crafted piece of engineering tough enough for the rigors of the UK roads.  That’s all before you even get to the various cost savings and environmental benefits”

The TP Scoot is a fully TUV certified, electric urban vehicle, with a range of up to 20 miles and a top speed of 20mph.  Similar in classification to a 50cc petrol scooter, it requires a insurance, tax (zero rated) and either a pre-2001 drivers license or a CBT.  Both 1000w Maximillian and 500w Ferdinand models are available and a 2000w model is planned for later in the year.  Prices start at £1250.00
