But before you get your hopes up, it appears this is a stand-on/up moped. The vehicle requires:
- a number plate to be displayed
- a V5C (Registration Certificate)
- insurance
- an MoT at 3 years
and for the user to:
- hold a driver’s licence (be of appropriate age) – a CBT or motorcycle licence
- wear a helmet.
For those who like a scooter format, it is a milestone – until now, privately owned e-scooters have not been legal to ride on the road. Let us not forget some of the additional features stated to be present:
- a safe battery
- luggage capacity
- electric powered – fast charging
- 25 mile (40km) range
An article about the scooter can be read here. The makers, Swifty, have a website.
