Peugeot is always known to be eccentric like the Onyx. But if that isn't enough for you, here's a scooter to compliment the Onyx and it's not just any scooter because this has three wheels and two of it is positioned in the front. Weird. The wheels are massive too but that's not the main point, what's more interesting is that you actually position yourself like on a superbike - your body inclined forwards and legs at the rear, like a wading duck - when you're riding this rough and sit up straight like a retard when you're riding in the urbanscapes.
Like the Onyx, the scooter is a hybrid. There's a 400cc internal combustion engine connected to an electric motor giving a combined output of 60 bhp and 58 Nm of torque, all of it powering the rear wheel and a top speed of 150 km/h. During braking, energy is recuperated and stored in the lithium-ion batteries which is then channeled to the rear wheel during acceleration. A mileage of 50km a litre of petrol is claimed while the running on full EV gives a range of 30 km and a top speed of 50 km/h. A combined range adds up to 500 km. Cool? Yeah, but I highly doubt this going into production form.
