Bugatti's new electric scooter is bigger with W16 Mistral vibes
Somewhere hidden among the thousands of flashy displays and exhibits at CES 2023 in Las Vegas was the newly upgraded Bugatti 2023 electric scooter.
TechCrunch has never seen it. Does anyone have?
Fortunately, details and images of the 2023 model, a 10% larger and more premium electric scooter, have now been released globally.
Bugatti, through a partnership with tech accessory company Bytech, launched a $1,200 electric scooter in 2022. The two companies have teamed up again to create a beefier second-generation scooter, equipped with new features and new colors, and with a bigger "self". -repair tires.
The 2023 scooter is 10% larger than its predecessor and comes with a 36-volt/15.6 Ah battery and electric motor with a maximum output of 1,000 watts, according to the companies. This battery and motor combo allows the scooter to handle an incline of up to 18 degrees, a top speed of 22 miles per hour, and can travel 35 miles on a single charge, according to the company. (That's an increase over the previous model's 22-mile range.)
No word yet on pricing for this larger second-gen model. This might be one of those "if you have to ask" moments.

The enlarged overall size extends to a larger deck area to stand on and a 10 inch tire (previous was nine inches) with a tubeless pneumatic design that comes with a mechanism built-in glue repair that repairs potential tire punctures. (The technology is very similar to the tubeless tires used in bicycles. The tires can be filled with a sealant which is released and coats the interior in the event of a puncture.)
The new Bugatti scooter now has password protection, a touch screen that displays speed, driver mode, battery life and headlight operation. The scooter is fitted with leather grips and is available in three colors, including a new yellow and black design that pays homage to Bugatti founder Ettore Bugatti (apparently his favorite color combo) and the W16 Mistral roadster, which has a palette of similar colors. /p>
At the end of these leather handles are two small LED lights. For added safety and visibility, the turn signals are synchronized and displayed on the supplied MIPS-certified helmet.
