British manufacturer Bo, founded by former Williams Formula One engineers, is developing The Turbo, a high-performance electric scooter that aims to surpass 160 km/h during the 2025 Bonneville Speed Week.

With an impressive power-to-weight ratio greater than that of a Bugatti Veyron, the model is designed to be the fastest in its category, combining cutting-edge technology with a bold approach to two-wheeled extreme performance.

The Turbo features two motors with a total output of 24,000W and a cooling system inspired by Formula 1, including air intakes that help keep temperatures under control at high speeds. Its main 1,800 Wh battery promises up to 240 km of range, although that can vary depending on usage. According to the company, acceleration is even faster than a Tesla Model 3, despite prioritizing top speed over instant torque.

Built to order, the scooter will be available in a limited edition with a starting price of US$29,500. The first unit will be delivered in Madrid during the Formula 1 Grand Prix in 2026. Based on the same chassis as the urban-focused Bo Model-M, the The Turbo version will be equipped with electronic stability and control systems aimed at making it manageable for experienced riders.

The brand’s goal is clear: to break the Guinness World Record and redefine the limits of high-performance electric scooters.
