The Audi e-Tron Scooter, combining the advantages of the electric scooter and the skateboard, is designed for sporty riders. To be transported by car, bus or train, the twelve-kilogram (26-pound) e-scooter can be folded up and conveniently stored in the back of the vehicle, or if preferred pulled like a trolley. Above all, the Audi e-Tron Scooter stands out thanks to its handling, which is like surfing waves. The rider has one hand free, and so can look around and give hand signals. Production and sales are planned for late 2020.
