Hi Joseph,

small_electric_vehicle for segways and electric kick scooters seems confusing to me: I would imagine this including electric golf carts (already tagged golf_cart=yes/designated/no) and perhaps other things.
The term is borrowed from European law. If there are better alternatives
we haven't found them yet.

It’s also a bit odd that electric pedal-assist bicycles with limited top speed are to be tagged electric_bicycle= but faster e-bikes would be tagged “speed_pedelec=“ - shouldn’t it be “high_speed_electric_bicycle=“ or similar?
As Volker already said, both "electric bicycle" and "speed pedelec" are quite well-know terms in several languages in Europe.
I very much favor this over a newly made up key.

    Taking the various comments and suggestions into account,
    I revised some of the tags proposed and also included electric mopeds
    in the proposal.

    The current set of tags is:

    * electric_bicycle - bicycles with motor assistance
    * speed_pedelec - fast electric bicycles, similar to mopeds
    * kick_scooter - the 'childrens style' scooter
    * small_electric_vehicle - electric scooters (similar to kick
    scooters),
    Segway etc. These refer to a class of vehicles in European (French,
    German) law
    * moped:electric - slow electric motorcycles (EU: up to 25 km/h
    typically)
    * mofa:electric -medium fast electric motorcycles  (EU: up to 45 km/h
    typically)

    I hope that this set of tags is able to cope with most existing and
    planned regulations and is free of ambiguities.
    Please let me know your opinion and further suggestions!
