The new electric two-wheeler is made using "naked" carbon fibre, with the footboard dimensioned to be slightly wider to support various riding styles and to improve ride quality. The carbon fibre construction looks neat and further feeds into the e-scooters F1 background. Red Bull claims its "thoroughbred" e-scooter is "super lightweight", but still comes in a 23kg.
Red Bull has limited the RBS to a top speed of 45 km/h (27mph) and can travel up to 60 km (37 miles) between charges. An integrated LCD screen sits at the top displaying the speed and battery life.
Red Bull says the RBS #01 has been designed to withstand up to 3.5G (g-force), while also being able to withstand big impacts when riding over jumps and "handle like it's on rails", thanks to bigger wheels and high performance tyres.
The RBS #01 will cost $6000. That may be expensive for an e-scooter, but it is designed by a team of F1 engineers. The new e-scooter can now be pre-ordered with a $600 deposit. First orders are planned to go out in summer 2023.
