It’s not even been officially launched yet, but the Zapp i300 scooter has already scooped up a design award from the German Red Dot company. The 300cc-class scoot makes nearly 19bhp peak output, with a city range of 30-50 miles and slick modern design. It’s been recognised with the Red Dot Award for product design.
Warin Thanathawee, chief design officer at Zapp, said: “We are absolutely delighted to have won this prestigious Red Dot Award. Zapp is very much a design-led company; quality and innovation are at the centre of all that we do, so to have our work recognised by Red Dot’s expert, international jury is a great honour.
“For the i300, we’ve created a design that blends old and new, one that simultaneously draws inspiration from the history of two-wheeled transport, and looks towards an exciting, electrified future. We’ve created a totally new design language that conveys Zapp’s technological advancement and high-performance credentials, all through appealing forms that are simple yet elegant.”
The i300 is available for pre-order now, priced around £5300, including two batteries.
