This is something I rant about from time to time. The word scooter is ridiculously overloaded. I'm semi-interested in an electric vespa type scooter, but it's hard to Google for it, because everything about electric scooters online refers to kick scooters.


Robot has a review of the new Electrica Vespa here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cswc9YtNJYw

The problem is in CA any Scooter even a 50 cc requires a full bike licence.


If you call them mopeds that should clarify any ambiguity.


Mopeds are sub 50cc motorized bicycles though.


Yeh don't call a Vespa a Moped, might not go well in some areas.


Mopeds have pedals.
