roduction has now begun on the basis of 10 units a day at
BMW's Berlin factory of its debut model in the electric sec-
tor, its C evolution maxi-scooter that we first rode in prototype
form two years ago at the London Olympics. Initially the scooter
will be sold only in Europe, but BMW Motorrad's Head of Urban
Mobility, Kaspar Danzer, confirms that the U.S. is next, followed by
Australasian and Asian countries, including China.
