Go-kart

No kidding – this is a real thing, from a real manufacturer, meant for real-world use. The Pit Bull 1.0 comes from KNK Karts, a seasoned Indian go-kart maker. And boy does it look like fun.

Greenworks makes hundreds of indoor and outdoor power tools that run on swappable battery packs. Now the company is using those same batteries to power a new e-mobility range that will include ebikes, an electric UV and an e-minibike.

Segway-Ninebot has rolled out a more powerful version of its electric Gokart, which will not only nudge the speedometer that little bit higher, but offer even more sideways action thanks to a new built-in drifting assistant system.

Part snowmobile, part sled and part drift kart, the Bobsla gives non-skiers something much more exhilarating to do on ski trips than sit by the lodge fireplace. The all-electric Tyrolean motor sleigh treads, slides and spins its way around the snow.

​For better or worse, you could rarely accuse Segway (now known as Segway-Ninebot) of failing to think outside the box, and the Ninebot Electric Gokart is yet another quirky contraption from the personal transportation company.
