Bo M e-scooter moves to production

Bo, a Bristol company founded by former employees of Williams F1 Advanced Engineering and Jaguar Land Rover, is moving its Bo M e-mobility solution into production.

Claimed to be the world’s most sophisticated urban micro-mobility vehicle, the Bo M two-wheeled e-scooter looks set to give urban riders the smoothest, safest and most stable ride of any vehicle in its class.

Bo M’s numerous features include 50km range, integrated Lock and Load hooks, an 800 lumens front headlight, a top speed of 21mph, and 80 per cent recharging in under three hours.

In August 2023, The Engineer headed to the Olympic Park in Stratford, London, to test ride Bo M with company co-founder and CEO Oscar Morgan.

It is very easy to get going on the 22kg e-scooter: simply push Bo M forward, step onto the vehicle's 'Airdeck', toggle the accelerator and you are mobile.
