Dubai has just announced the creation of an electric scooter race featuring the fastest models in the world.

The Dubai Electric Scooter Cup aims to become the premier international electric scooter racing event. According to the joint announcement made by the Federation for Micromobility and Sports and the Dubai Sports Council, a scooter model known as RS-Zero DXB has been specially designed for the Dubai Electric Scooter Cup.

And is it fast?

Well, it’s simply the world’s fastest electric racing scooter with a top speed of over 140 km/h. A true technological gem, it allows its pilots to take turns at inclinations greater than 58 degrees. MotoGP didn’t do much better a few years ago.

This is a mixed competition, and sixteen male and female riders will gather on December 16, 2023, on a course created through the streets of Dubai. The event will feature a knockout format in the quest for the title of first Dubai Electric Scooter Cup champion.

The scooter of tomorrow.

Dubai’s role as the host city is particularly significant, explains Alex Wurz, former Formula 1 driver and President of the Federation for Micromobility and Sports: “I am delighted to take this important step in a city that strives to find new mobility solutions. This unique event will showcase the potential of micromobility racing across future cities.” Behind this ambitious speech and the presence of Alex Wurz, one can sense the influence of the all-powerful FIA, the International Automobile Federation.
