The A2B: A Bike and A Scooter

Ultra Motor has designed a unique electric hybrid vehicle--the A2B.

 

The A2B is a mixture of a bicycle and an electric scooter.  Designed for urban commuters, the A2B has a lithium powered motor that can run for 20 miles at a maximum speed of 20 mph.  For recharging, the battery can conveniently be plugged into an ordinary electric socket.

For those who are looking for more exercise, or if the battery is dead, the A2B can be ridden like a bike.  The A2B has a lightweight aluminum body--73 lbs.--and a full suspension.  As Ultra Motor says, it allows "riders to get as much or as little exercise as they choose."
