Ninebot has reportedly built a kit that transforms Segways into go-karts. It’s pertinent to mention here that Ninebot is Segway’s parent company. Segway launched its e-skates last month and now a report reveals that Ninebot will soon be unveiling a new kit which attaches to the scooters and turns them into go-karts.
Abacus News reports that Ninebot has teased the new kit by posting its promotional images on its official Weibo account. The images show that this kit will add a seat, front bumper, steering wheel, brakes, and a set of rear wheels to the Segway miniPRO. The seat’s height can seemingly be adjusted to fit the driver as the photos show both an adult and a child driving the transformed go-karts.
Ninebot hasn’t revealed any more information about this kit right now so it’s not known when it will arrive and how much it will cost. The report mentions that the company may unveil it later this month, on July 24th, in Los Angeles. If that’s the case, the product will be announced just over a month before the company unveils the Drift W1 e-skates at IFA 2018 in Berlin.
If the kit’s launch is scheduled to take place in the United States then there’s a good chance that it might be released in the country as well.
