New Vectrix electric maxi-scooter is good to go in California
(August 17, 2007 ) - Dan Wolfson of University City says he's "saving the planet one gallon at a time" with his new freeway-legal Vectrix Maxi-Scooter.


Within 24 hours of Vectrix's West Coast debut at a daylong consumer test ride event in San Francisco last week, the company had "lots of orders," even though the Vectrix costs twice as much as a regular scooter -- $11,000.


Whether Vectrix can meet demand remains to be seen. Vectrix, based in Newport, R.I., won't say how many scooters it's making or selling. More accurately, it isn't allowed to say. Vectrix is legally prohibited from revealing production and sales numbers because the company is publicly owned and traded on the London AIM stock exchange and rules prohibit that disclosure until May.


Environmentalists and other proponents of electric power say the Vectrix Maxi-Scooter is one of the more exciting inventions in years: a battery-powered motorcycle that can reach upward of 60 mph. To watch a Vectrix peel out on the highway is, perhaps, to glimpse the future.

$11,000 for a $2,000 product? DO you have a gambling debt?
