In my quest to find a successor to my Fluid Freeride Mosquito, I’ve come across ultra compact electric scooters like the Dynamic Scooter Model B. While I was able to fit that into my backpack, its tiny wheels and poor build quality doesn't instill confidence in me that it could survive New York City’s hazardous streets.
Enter Honda’s suitcase looking electric scooter, the Motocompacto ($995), which could be one of the few electric scooters that could go where other scooters are banned in NYC. That’s because of the Motocompacto’s intriguing (or odd) design, which collapses so that the wheels, seat and handle bars all tuck away into its briefcase-like body.
