An electric moped about to be distributed in the UK has been given the royal seal of approval.
The moped, made by Askoll of Italy, was on display at an international business festival in Liverpool where entrepreneur Grant Dudson, who had been invited to talk about the future of transport, took the opportunity to show it off to the Duke of Cambridge.
HRH was so impressed that he decided to take a seat.
Dudson and Luca Amaduzzi have won exclusive distribution rights to import the Askoll – said to be the best-selling electric moped in Italy – to the UK.Â
It has a range of 60 miles, a top speed of 42 mph and has removable batteries so they can be charged off the mains in the home or office.
More in the August issue of BDN.
