The hybrid electric scooter and bike from Honda goes on sale
The world's leading motorcycle manufacturer Honda has released the budget U Be electric scooter. For a price of $475, future owners will receive a vehicle capable of traveling up to 80 km on a single charge. Moreover, it can be used like a regular bicycle.

The scooter model was developed jointly with the Chinese company Wuyang. First of all, it will become available to the inhabitants of the Celestial Empire, which is the reason for the relatively low cost. It is noted that the developers managed to bypass the restrictions on the production of such vehicles, since the scooter has pedals, which technically formally turns it into an electric bicycle.

U Be has a compact size, it is equipped with a 350 W motor, the maximum speed is 24 km/h. These characteristics are enough for large metropolitan areas, where there is congestion of transport highways and a lack of parking space. The owner does not need a driver's license to drive, since transport, as mentioned above, refers to electric bicycles.

The scooter lineup will consist of three models, each of which will have a 720, 960 or 1152 Wh battery and 55, 69 or 80 km of run from a single charge, respectively. Whether the scooters will be available to buyers outside of China remains to be seen.
