For city dwellers that would be amazing but $28k is insane. Half that and they could sell well enough but I suspect they won’t be around in the NZ market for long at that price.
100%. It’s the same problem that H-D faced with the LiveWire. Awesome bit of kit but in our market with cheap Japanese import cars there are much more versatile options for a lot less money. You’ve got to be a dedicated enthusiast to swallow the high point of entry.
@@OnThrottle see if you can do a review on the C400X - I’m not in the market for one but I’d be really interested to see how it compares. Just over half the price but currently including a top box meaning the scoot itself is pretty much half the cost of the electric one. I haven’t done the maths but I’m picking the saved $14k is enough petrol to get you to the moon and back twice!
In the USA 🇺🇸 Until Electric Vehicles get a way to recharge while on the road we won’t be able to go full electric with no dependency on fossil fuels. Why? The time consuming to recharge and the few charging stations.
Hello, thanks for the video.Should I buy this as my first bike ?.I do really dream to ride this bike and from first sight I loved this bike.Help me out please.
Yep. The CE 02 should be about half that price, but still, it is quite the barrier to entry - especially in a market with access to cheap ex-Japanese market imported cars.

Can we tamper with the battery in/ out so that we can add some additional external battery, some extra lights etc all those diyers hacks?
From memory it has a seperate 12v battery for those things rather than it all coming off the battery pack. LiveWire certainly did this.

@@CumhuriyeTR I’d recommend looking at the CE02 which is smaller and more manageable if you are set on an EV BMW.
@@OnThrottle hmm , thanks for your answer.
28K ...DAMN, they gouge you Kiwis even more than us Canucks. Just get the Yamaha XMax300...no range anxiety, and save a ton.
Yeah she’s pretty pricy. If manufacturers want EVs to actually sell they’d price them like ICE bikes. It’s a shame, it’s a cool bit of kit.
Awesome looking machine! Very cyberpunk-esque. If I could afford one I’d ride the absolute shit out of it
Top scooter !!❤
Looks cool but 28k ? wow

Doesn't make sense if the lithium battery catches fire.
