Israeli-native Amir Ziad has invented an inexpensive and innovative personal transportation vehicle called muvE. This highly portable ultra lightweight scooter can be folded into a trolley, making it an optimal vehicle for urban transport.
Ziad says the MuvE weighs between 12-15 kg and cost about $2,000- $3,000 once it hits the market. The original prototype can travel up to10 kilometers on a single charge, but an updated vehicle, with a cellular controlled mechanism will improve the range. There is even an off-road version of the vehicle.
