Vectrix and their fuel cell scooter plans, coming to a city approach you?

Posted by admin Published in Two Wheels, EV/Plug-in, Hydrogen

One post with two Vectrix updates! You are lucky readers nowadays, aren’t you! We have been doing our best to keep you up to day with Vectrix news, and nowadays we share with you a few details regarding their impending fuel cell scooter. As far as the motor and battery go, all seems to be roughly the same. That means that the scooter has fine acceleration all the way up to its 62 mile per hour top speed. But the range has been extended by the on-board fuel cell to 155 miles. I would assume that whether the battery pack were the same, you might never need the additional capacity of the fuel cell, as you can charge the machine using a standard domestic outlet.

I would personally say that

whether hydrogen fuel cells have any hope of hitting the consumer’s garages any instance soon that it would be as a range-extender. Plug-in electric vehicles are most certainly the most viable option at that duration. As consumers are still tied to the view of refilling their tanks for a seemingly endless range, hydrogen fuel cells might help motivate them to go electric.

Also, The Scooter Scoop has a post up which details Vectrix’s roll-out plans including where you can check one out for yourself. whether you have any interest in that machine, it’s worth a visit.
