EC-f scooter by yamaha

yamaha's new EC-f scooter. the lightweight aluminum two-wheeler, is electric powered
and runs on a lithium-ion battery driving a 0.6kWh electric motor. the charger is built into
the frame of the scooter and can be plugged into any normal electrical socket.
the 'green' vehicle is meant to encourage urbanites to be on two wheels, serving as a
commuter bike for city dwellers who want to be more ecologically sustainable in their choices.
