With electric bicycles costing as much as gas scooters, this doesn't seem that expensive to me. It also compares favorably (IMO) to a Vespa Elettrica. It's great to have more options, and this seems like a pretty solid one.
Great review/overview. I learned a lot & concur with many of your highlights. The people complaining about price, mph & range aren’t BMWs target. For urban areas this is plenty. The CE04 is the next step up or the project Amber is the next step down. The CE02 occupies a new, but familiar category of urban mobility for progressive adults. Definitely better than the Grom in tech, torque advanced features; however, has a long way to go IOT exceed the class on refinement/range. Thanks for sharing & confirming a great urban commuter.
Not including a space for the charger/charge cable is a terrible oversight imho. Especially with that glaring open space up front. I've ran a similar vehicle before and taking the charger with you is a must on some days.
Yeesh 9k compared to a grom is a really hard pill to swallow. I really really want to like this but I seriously can't see why you'd get this over a grom. Or even just a high power e-bike which is way more versatile since you can take it on the road, bike lane, and even sidewalk in a pinch.

The fact that this bike cant be charged at a charging station is a deal breaker for me. I mean how ridiculous.. they designed such a nice looking bike.. and you cant fuckin charge it if your on the road! What a complete and total waste of a product.
Very good conclusions. Bought mine as soon as I had a chance to test ride one and been totally happy with it ever since.

Usually Vespa residuals are a lot better than BMW Motorrad ones though. Still to be seen with the electric stuff...

True.

4:16 Charging Port: 😃
If it had a removable battery it would be perfect. Still looks excellent though!
It does. Batteries can be removed, carried and charged with the same charger.
sweet. are these out for sale?
Much rather own a BMW G 310 GS. Would it be possible for you to review one?
We can certainly ask!
All they had to do was put in a bigger battery.
Am I missing something? Why the rainbow in the thumbnail

I am sorry....how much?
I can get electric scooter for 1k with same range.

Great vid...just redo the first few minutes as the sound is awful ...
That isn't a scooter. A scooter would look completely different in design.
Looks like electric bike
