Last month, personal mobility company Segway entered the powersports segment with an electric dirt bike and a range of off-road four-wheelers. What was missing at the time was a streetbike.
Well, Segway (and its parent company, Ninebot) has plans to fill that gap, revealing today an electric sportbike concept called the “Segway Apex.” Details are sparse, with Ninebot only claiming the Apex can “achieve a maximum speed of 125 mph and acceleration from 0-60 mph within only 2.9 seconds, making it the fastest product developed by Segway-Ninebot ever.”
Ninebot also calls the Apex a “super scooter,” though that may be a translation quirk for the Chinese company. You only have to look at the Apex to know it’s more motorcycle than scooter with its upside-down fork, dual front brakes and Pirelli Diablo Rosso Corsa tires. We can also confirm that Segway has filed a trademark application in Europe for “Segway E-Sportbike,” though in our opinion, Apex is a much better name.
Ninebot also revealed an electric scooter concept, though it wasn’t presented under the Segway brand.
