And that's relevant how? If you live in a city where everyone owns a petrol scooter it's absurd. Can't wait for all of these to be electric, it's just common sense.

my 2022 vespa gets over 65mpg and I don’t need to move 2,000 lbs of metal to get around. I assure you it is better for the world than driving an car.

When electric will be equally practical (recharge time, mileage) and accessible (we do not have electronic money).

And the noise pollition I hear coming from the electric to me is a million times worse than ICEs.

		What noise pollution do you hear from electric? You mean the noise cars make when they are backing up or what?

		Whether stinky bait, or just bad sarcasm, you’ll need to up your game, this is weak.

		>>And the noise pollition I hear coming from the electric to me is a million times worse than ICEs. Is this some kind of trolling? >>accessible (we do not have electronic money). And is this some kind of joke? An electric scooter can be plugged into a solar panel and recharged within a day. For free. Even if every oil refinery on earth explodes you will be able to charge your electric scooter by the wonderful power of the sun. Unless you mean the cost to purchase - have you seen the cost of a new Vespa? You can have two electric scooters for the price of a new Vespa. And electric scooters have long ago matched needs of city users in terms of range. Recharge time isn't as fast as petrol, sure, but people tend not to drive scooters for 500 miles in a day. You drive it to work, drive it back, plug it in. Or charge during the day using solar. Or you know, for really crazy sci-fi ideas just look at china, where electric scooters with swappable batteries are extremely common. Even if you work as a food delivery driver you can have a fresh fully charged battery in less time than it would take you to fill up with petrol.
