Has anyone seen this? I am posting here for comparison purposes.
KTM Just Made the Electric Scooter Cool | Autopia | Wired.com
KTM E-SPEED
11kW (15 hp)
300 lbm
up to 50mph
4.36 kWh (40 mile range)
VW XL1
20 kW (27 hp) electric motor
60+ mph (all electric, assuming that you only need 8.3 hp to run at 60 mph)
759 kg (1675 lbm)
5 kWh (31 mile range)
Maybe KTM should offer a streamliner version that gets better range and has a higher top speed. I, for one, would only need a ~30 mile range to get to and from work, but I would feel a lot better if the top speed was closer to 65 for the interstate section
