Without this commendable pioneering spirit, the car would certainly never have been invented. The new, futuristic appearance of the "hoverboard" in road traffic is the self-balance scooter - also affectionately known as the "hoverboard" in memory of the Hollywood classic "Back to the Future". But also under other proper names coined by the manufacturer, the scooter is currently sold over the counter at various Internet providers and in well-known electrical wholesale stores. During use, the user stands hands-free on a bridge located between two wheels and shifts his own weight forwards or backwards to drive the electric motor. It is also steered by shifting weight and body tension. According to the manufacturer, the scooters weigh around ten kilograms, can carry loads of up to 120 kilograms and reach speeds of 10 to 20 km / h. With the batteries, ranges of up to 15 kilometers can be covered.
