The computer model had a tilt front end but the prototype didn't - but maybe they will add that later

Not sure the whacky controls will catch on, steering with your feet like an aircraft and lifting the grips to brake.

Interesting to see that SYM involved in this sort of thing

like a futuristic walk in bath for future pensioners but I like it, especially if it comes with a fast bubble option! :lol:

All these groovy half a car 3 wheel things are great, but somehow I can't imagine myself daring to filter to the front of traffic queues on one, unlike on a normal bike/scoot - they are just too car like!

Yes, in grabbing at the "sufficiently far apart to be able to drive them on a car license" brigade they seem to have forgotten that tilting is good, narrow is better.

None of these are worth a wonky widget if you can't lane-split and park in bike bays, as you're only competing with leccy microcars.

Ok lets start moaning at Steve now, why don't you put a demo version in each dealer, I want a test drive now, far too expensive for a SYM, service intervals too short does not go far enough on a charge. Have I covered most bases? :kiss:

Well i think its the way forward to help keep us and our ever ageing population independent and mobile and eco friendly .I will be well pleased at the ripe old age of 107 riding my 3 wheel electric hog ( made by sym of coarse ) to the coast for a hemsby bingo night out .

Once you realise that the gripes and moans you read on here are the reasons which are stopping you from selling product you might actually get somewhere.
We are giving you the combined benefit of hundreds of years of bike and scooter ownership and you seem unable to take it seriously.
So here is another thing to ponder.
Would I buy a Maxsym 400 or a Kymco 400?
Why would I choose one over the other?
Is it possible to equip a Maxsym 400 with the missing items which would prevent you from selling me one?
