Vehicle | 1999 Peugeot Scootelec These electric scooters have been in production at Peugeot motorcycles since 1996. I has had a previous life in an project founded by the City of Stockholm where these scooters as well as PSA and Renault electric cars where evaluated. All used the same type of wet NiCd batteries made by SAFT that where state of the art 10 years ago. I now plan to replace these with lighter LiFePO batteries and use a slightly higher tension too. |
