Here is a report about a new French electric scooter that was shown at the Paris auto show:

Hm.

66.6V 72Ah = 4.8 kWh. About as big as the ZF5.7 Zero bikes.

100 kph is pretty good top speed, it won't be useful for American interstates but should be fine for running around a city. 120 km to 75 km is plenty of range for city operations .. though that seems a little optimistic. 120 km = 75 miles in the city = 64 Wh/mile, 75 km = 47 miles @ 62 mph = 101 Wh/mile.

60000 km to 70% / 75 km = 800 cycles to 70%? Seems low.

I like the underseat storage.

Not to my tastes, but it looks like a competent little bike. Price range for such a small battery seems reasonably sensible too.
I like the power usage meter on the dash too.
