Segway-Ninebot —yes, the same robotics transportation company of Segway fame — is adding bigger, flashier electric vehicles to its battery-powered lineup.
At an event in China on Tuesday, the company revealed its two upcoming vehicles: the Ninebot eMoped and eScooter. Both look like mopeds, or small, lightweight motorcycles. Don't confuse the eScooter with Ninebot's smaller electric scooter lineup that became ubiquitous in the e-scooter rental industry. (Now's a good time for a refresher on all the different names for electric scooters and similar vehicles.)

Next is the eMoped, a more traditional-looking electric bike, but it's still small and compact. It only weighs 121 pounds, compared to that of a Vespa scooter at over 300 pounds. The moped only goes up to 16 mph and the swappable lithium-ion battery comes with a range of either 25, 37, or 47 miles per charge. It's also customizable, with 4,752 possible color combinations.

Segway-Ninebot recently unveiled its first electric dirt bike and showed off its concept vehicles, the Apex motorcycle and the Ninebot eScooter T. That's a revamped Ninebot e-scooter with new features, like self-balancing and app control to autonomously send the scooter to a parking spot.
