Messerschmitt electric cabin scooter KR 202 E
E-mobility defined as it also makes sense
The Messerschmitt cabin scooter is without doubt an automotive icon of the post-war era. But with its electric drive, the new Messerschmitt KR-202 E cabin scooter has finally made the leap into the 21st century! The electric cabin scooter combines classic design with a powerful, highly efficient electric motor and a high-performance battery of the latest generation. Here, e-mobility is finally defined in a way that makes sense: more than three quarters of all cars are driven daily within a radius of barely more than 30 kilometres. Why shouldn’t the way to work, and even more so the way to the end of the day, be fun? The E-cab scooter answers exactly this question. The 5 KW permanent magnet motor accelerates the electric Messerschmitt up to 80 km/h. The 72 volt / 40 Ah lithium-ion battery gives the cabin scooter a comfortable action radius of 60 kilometres. In terms of chassis and bodywork, the Messerschmitt is in no way inferior to its petrol-driven brother: The body, made of multi-layer laminated, glass-fibre reinforced plastic, rests on an extremely torsion-resistant hybrid steel aluminium honeycomb chassis, whose hot-dip galvanised steel elements give the adjustable dampers of the chassis their firm hold. The power of the electric motor is passed on to the tyres with astonishing traction. The tyres measure 110/70-12 at the rear and 100/80-10 at the front to ensure directional stability.
Inside, you only notice the sporty genes of the modern cabin electric scooter at second glance. The seating position, design and customisable interior as well as the matching paint colour exude the charm of the 50s. If you dispense with the typical shape of the hardtop, which can be removed in a few easy steps, the cabin scooter becomes an open roadster. This is how the retro cabin scooter spreads pure racing feeling! Especially if you opt for the sports version, which dispenses with the bonnet altogether and offers the pilot protection from the elements only with a tiny windscreen. You glide into the almost reclining seating position like a Formula 1 driver at his workstation. The Formula 1-style steering wheel has a quick-release function and is not placed on the steering column until you have fastened the three-point automatic seat belt. And when the cockpit display signals to the pilot that his KR-202 E is just waiting for him to step on the accelerator, then a replica suddenly becomes the new, genuine Messerschmitt of the 21st century! And of course all this is available with German certification. General importer 3PPP, together with TÜV-Nord, TÜV-Rheinland & GTÜ, has put the electric cabin scooter built in Spain through its paces, tested it for driving and passenger safety and secured approval for German road traffic for it. This Messerschmitt is officially registered like any other car. It may also be driven with a class 3 or class B driving licence.
