New car firm shows interest in bikes too

NORMALLY we wouldn’t get terribly excited about an electric moped but this as-yet-unreleased design comes from a new firm that’s already making waves in the car industry. Qoros might not be a name you’re familiar with. The firm has yet to start selling cars in Europe, although that will change soon.

BMW showed the electric scooter of the future

Motorrad Concept Link is a two-wheeled gadget that understands its owner.
