Conventional motorcycles have appalling aerodynamics. In the UK,
learners were limited to machine of no more than 125cc and 12bhp. You
could expect a top speed of 60mph.

My Scirocco EV would also do about 60mph on that power (as read from
the gauges).

The Microlino is the right kind of shape, more rounded at the front,
more pointed at the back and is devoid of the kind of random
projections and seams that my 80's Scirocco was burdened with. It
wouldn't surprise me if the aerodynamics were pretty good.

Yeah right 8000/74=108wh per mile.

maybe at 10mph. Motorcycles don't even do that good.

The Microlino will offer two different lithium-ion battery sizes: an 8-kwh
unit is good for 74 miles, and a 14.4-kwh version will cover 133 miles.

The company says charging will take four hours.

Either way, the Microlino is strictly a city car, with a top speed of 55 mph
from its 20-hp electric motor.

Microlino - Change urban mobility - Lifestyle and Prototype #2
]

Microlino, the maker of scooters and kickboards is ready to launch an
electric microcar in Europe.

Run by two Swiss brothers, the company unveiled its recreation of the tiny
single-door BMW Isetta at the Geneva auto show two years ago, and has now
partnered with with boutique Italian coachmaker Tazzari to build up to
10,000 copies of the car a year.

At a price of $13,600, Microlino says it already has 7,200 orders for the
car.

Microlino's design stays pretty true to the original Isetta, with a single
hinged door at the front, with the steering column attached. Once the driver
tucks into the bench seat behind the stubby pedals and the steering wheel, a
second passenger can squeeze in beside.

The Microlino will offer two different lithium-ion battery sizes: an 8-kwh
unit is good for 74 miles, and a 14.4-kwh version will cover 133 miles.

The company says charging will take four hours.

Either way, the Microlino is strictly a city car, with a top speed of 55 mph
from its 20-hp electric motor.

Like the original Isetta, designed to carry economically devastated people
through war-torn Europe after World War II, the Microlino is just 8 feet
long, almost 2 feet shorter than a Smart car. It even tucks a 10.6
cubic-foot trunk into that footprint.

Unlike the Smart car, when the Microlino parks perpendicular to the curb,
between cars, the passengers can still exit the front.

The company says it plans to build 100 Microlinos this year, and quickly
ramp up production to at least 5,000 units next year.

It only plans to sell the car in Europe and in China so far, in part because
the front door and forward controls are unlikely to pass U.S. crash
standards.
