Engineered by E-Tropolis for the scooter motorcycle segment, the 2011 E-Tropolis Retro features a purpose-built air-cooled electric configuration. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 2.7 HP (2 kW), transferring power to the rear wheel through a 1-speed gearbox.
On the scales, the Retro measures 121 kg (267 lbs) dry. Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 780 mm (30.7 in) seat height — offering a neutral standover height that accommodates most average-inseam riders without sacrificing cornering clearance.
