There were countless talks about whether the C Evolution is truly an evolution in electric scooter manufacturing, or if BMW could have done many things better than they appear to be.

For a potentially rich discussion on this matter, you can check the pertinent opinion our reader Venzuello put on the table in a recent article on the BMW C Evolution.

We here kind of like the new scooter, and we're delving deeper to find out details on pricing. Bearing a BMW badge, we're not expecting anything cheap, but everybody seems to agree that the price tag will definitely play a major role in the new e-wheeler playing it cool or being the fool.
