The CSC Monterey electric scooter combines classic styling with modern electric technology.
The Monterey is is a scooter designed for errands, affordable commuting, and FUN. Big smiles come at no extra charge! CSC Motorcycles has combined the timeless profile of the retro Super Cub with a modern, rechargeable powerplant. Ride in style and NEVER stop for gas again.
Electric bike and vehicle expert, Micah Toll reports in his review at Electrek, “I’ve gotten more looks on the CSC Monterey than other e-motorcycles or e-scooters I’ve ridden, hands down. People stop walking and simply gawk. Kids give me the thumbs up while their parents stare.”
The CSC Monterey delivers more than just a timeless scooter design.
The Monterey is equipped with a powerful electric motor that supplies 2400-watts of power to scoot you from home to work or school at up to 30 mph. A 60-volt lithium battery provides the rechargeable power supply, and the battery is removable for charging outside of the cycle. The range is 20 to 40 miles between charge.*
The Monterey couldn’t be easier to ride – there are NO clutch or gears.
At just 181 pounds and rolling on large-diameter 17-inch wheels, the Monterey is easy to park and store between rides. It has front and rear hydraulic suspension to smooth the ride. There is NO drive chain (the electric motor is inside the rear hub) so you will NEVER touch or maintain a greasy chain! The front and rear brakes are sealed drums for low maintenance and all-weather riding.
Many public buildings provide preferential parking for scooters and free recharging facilities.
The classic step-through frame makes climbing aboard easy for a wide range of rider sizes. The large fenders and front fairing deflect both the wind and rain, while the large floorboard footrests add stability. that accommodate various foot positions and leg lengths. The saddle is at a low 30-inch height for easy balance at stoplights.
No detail has been overlooked in the design of the CSC Monterey electric scooter.
The saddle of the Monterey has lockable storage underneath. A passenger seat and passenger footpegs are also provided. An optional rear passenger back rest is available. (The rated weight capacity is 331 pounds, combined weight of passengers and cargo.) Remove the passenger seat and add a basket to the rear rack for shopping. You can also add an optional front shopping basket.
The retro appearance hides a host of modern conveniences.
The Monterey includes full LED lighting: headlight, taillight and turn signals. A USB port in the front accessory bin keeps your phone fully charged. The digital dash displays your speed and battery level, along with miles. Dual round rearview mirrors add saftey and complete the retro style.
Between rides, the Monterey balances upright on the included center stand. Press the Park button to stop and disable the motor when parked.
Amazingly, the CSC Monterey electric scooter costs less than many electric bicycles.
Regularly priced at $2,395.00, the Monterey is currently ON SALE for only $1,789.00. (CSC Motorcycles charges a flat rate $410.00 for set-up and predelivery. If required, shipping to your door is an added $25.00 in the lower 48-states.)
Now compare the CSC Monterey electric scooter to its inspiration, the original Honda “Super Cub” 125cc motorcycle.
The Cub has been Honda’s all-time worldwide best seller since the 1960's. The current MSRP is $3,899.00, plus $300.00 freight plus additional dealer markups. The “out the door” price averages more than $4,600.00. This cost does not include local taxes, registration, and insurance. The Super Cub is a motorcycle and requires a motorcycle endorsement on your driver’s license.
The CSC Monterey is NOT a motorcycle. At the 30-mph maximum speed, it is licensed as a scooter or moped in most municipalities and does not require a motorcycle driver’s license.
You can buy a PAIR of CSC Monterey electric scooters for LESS than a Super Cub – and never need to buy gas or change oil – ever!
The CSC Monterey electric scooter is the perfect combination of striking style and 21st-century practicality. It’s available in your choice of three attractive two-tone colorways: Blue with white, Green with white, and Red with white accents.
