We just "recovered" from the remake of Honda's Motocompo (renamed Motocompatto) and the world of electric vehicles is already surprising us with an even more astonishing novelty: the Arma electric scooter.
This crazy foldable scooter not only challenges the Motocompacto in size and weight, but eclipses it with an amazing ability to shrink down to the size of a bathroom scale. More: an A4 sheet. Arma represents the epitome of convenience and innovation, the perfect companion for busy urban life.
The new face of urban mobility: Arma, origami scooter
The need for efficient and practical transportation solutions in our ever-expanding cities is more pressing than ever. Arma, the new foldable electric scooter, seems to respond to this need with a radically new approach that reaches levels never seen before.
The strength of Armaça va sans dire, it is its unique design. It is similar in size to an A4 sheet of paper when folded - incredible. Its minimal structure simplifies the folding process and challenges any traditional expectations about personal mobility. But is he walking, at least?
Performance and practicality
Despite its size, Arma has overall decent performance for its purposes. With a range of 14,5 km and a maximum speed of 24 km/h, it is ideal for short trips around the city. It weighs just 4,5kg and folds up in 30 seconds - on paper it's practical as hell.
And now, the mantra of recent years: sustainability. Arma also stands out for its ecological footprint, being completely electric. This scooter offers a zero-emission transport solution, perfectly in line with global efforts to reduce environmental impact in urban areas.
Scooter the size of an A4 sheet of paper, the future of micromobility is a page yet to be written
While Honda Motocompacto is already available, with its price of $999 and its consolidated presence on the market, Arma presents itself as an ambitious project, still in the prototype phase. With a similar potential price point and the promise of further innovation, the Arma could not only compete with Honda's rig, but also surpass it in terms of practicality and adaptability to urban needs.
I look forward to seeing if Arma can turn its promises into reality and become a new benchmark in the world of electric scooters. And if they're roses, well, they'll leave.
