With technology developed from McLaren F1 cars, the Lavoie Series 1 is the firm's first premium e-scooter
It will be offer in two battery sizes, with the entry level version offering around 25 miles of “real-world range”. A larger version will feature a 700Wh battery and Wertheimer said “it will be the kind of product you only need to charge once or twice a week”.
Lavoie has yet to give a battery capacity, but says that a two-hour charge on a domestic three-pin plug will give the Series 1 up to 31 miles of range. The firm is also working on a bespoke app that will offer integrated navigation – syncing with a display built-into the machine so riders can keep their phones packed away – and a range of safety features.
It will be offered in a range of four colours, which are currently being developed in association with Callum, the design consultancy established by former Jaguar designer Ian Callum.The aim is to launch the Series 1 next year with a limited-run Founders Edition, featuring extra kit and special trim details. The firm will make 469 of those – a reference to the fact the first patents for electric vehicles were filed in April 1869.
