BMW Aiming to Rejuvenate Scooter Business (with e-Scooter)

September 6th, 2012 by James Ayre

BMW is planning to get back into the scooter business, primarily by pushing its new electric scooter, the C Evolution e-Scooter.

The C Evolution e-Scooter is looking to follow in the design footsteps of the company’s cult favorite, the C1, which sported a “futuristic” windshield/roof combination and its heavy emphasis on safety.
