Personal Rover Electric Scooter The Personal Rover from is a new entry in the world of strange electric personal transportation vehicles. Segways are expensive, so if you don't want to drop $6,500 and you also don't want to have to walk anywhere, the Personal Rover Electric Transportation Vehicle will do the job for just $999! The Personal Rover looks like the result of a mad scientist mating together a Radio Flyer Wagon, a skateboard, and a set of skis. It sports an 800W motor that can carry a rider up to 12 miles at up to 15 mph. Steering is conducted with what looks like a couple of ski poles. The Rover is made more for open areas than urban crowds. There isn't much turning radius and the whole contraption has a pretty big footprint. The large tires are supposed to help with somewhat rougher terrain. USA - January 2012 -
