Those who have been hoping to see battery-swapping leader Gogoro bring its electric scooters to the Western world can finally rejoice.

What makes a Lotus, a Lotus? Anyone familiar with automotive history would likely say it’s the coy “simplify, then add lightness” philosophy that defined Colin Chapman’s scrappy sports car manufacturer and UK Formula One legend. But last year, the company began shipping its all-new electric SUV, the Eletre. It weighs 2600 kilograms. It’s built in China. It has more settings than a high-end washing machine. It’s… an SUV.

Heybike Horizon review: Full-suspension 28 MPH fat-tire e-bike at just $1,499

Oh, and it looks pretty darn awesome too!
