San Diego-based ZuumCraft unveiled an ultralight electric scooter today that it says can maintain its balance during fast turns.
ZuumCraft started taking deposits this week for the three-wheeled, battery-powered scooter that is expected to sell for $2,000 to $2,100. CEO Bill Lofft told the Cleantech Group that ZuumCraft plans to ship 150 of the Zuumers in January in a limited production run but ramp to 300 a month around March.
