Hyundai Considering the Addition of an Electric Scooter in New Car Models
This is an interesting idea considering how popular electric scooters are becoming:
Hyundai Motor Group on Tuesday unveiled an electric scooter that can be mounted inside a vehicle and charged with the electricity generated while driving.
The product is an upgrade to a concept model Hyundai Motor first introduced in 2017.
The group said it is considering including electric scooters as an upgrade option in newly launched cars from Hyundai Motor and Kia Motors from 2021 so drivers can conveniently continue to their destination after parking their car.
The scooter, according to Hyundai, will be charged automatically when mounted in a dedicated space in the vehicle through electricity generated from driving. When drivers reach parking lots, they can take out the scooter and continue on to their final destination.

Is there enough power in that motor to take a 275-pound guy like me uphill?
Hydrogen being kinda explodey makes me think of the Hindenburg. And I know what you mean, Kevin, because I got down to 275 during chemo.
“A model demonstrates…”
Let’s be honest.
With those pants and shoes, Kevin Kim, Setnaffa, and me could all have taken the same photo.
So could my mom.
WTF is wrong with the world today?
I sometimes feel I am the only one living in true reality.
