Introducing an Electric Scooter That Folds Up Into Luggage
Hungary's MOVEO scooter looks like something baggage handlers might lose at the airport.
Finally, somebody made a scooter for the die-hard Transformers fans.
That is, for 12-year-old boys. Yet regular commuters who value lightweight, ecofriendly forms of transportation that are not bicycles might appreciate the MOVEO, too. Conceived by Antro Group, a Hungarian nonprofit that designs alternative vehicles, the sleek scooter folds up into what looks like a hard-shell suitcase; riders can carry the personal-transportation device/adult toy onto the bus, lug it up to their third-floor apartments or let baggage handlers misroute it on cross-country flights, just like a real piece of luggage.
