Electric Revival of East Germany’s Iconic Two-Wheeled Vehicle

The e-Schwalbe 1st Edition pays tribute to the iconic Simson Schwalbe KR51 from East Germany, swapping its classic two-stroke engine for a silent electric motor developed by Govecs. Launched in 2017 and recently refined, this modern scooter emphasizes sustainability, European craftsmanship, and stylish design. Equipped with a 48V hub motor, hydraulic disc brakes, and LED lighting, it reaches speeds of 28 mph with a range of up to 62 miles using dual batteries. Priced at €7,999, the e-Schwalbe targets urban riders who value heritage and aesthetics over pure performance, making it a niche yet appealing choice in the electric scooter market.
