Suzuki Introduces ‘MOQBA’, A Visionary Quad Bike That Can Climb Stairs

[Community]

Suzuki has introduced the MOQBA, a four-wheeled electric scooter with a distinctive feature: articulating legs that allow it to… climb up stairs.

The MOQBA’s design is specifically tailored to address transportation challenges, particularly those posed by steps, in urban environments, including regions with well-established public transit systems, such as Japan, where it can be challenging for those with mobility issues to get around metro stations as there are a lot of stairs and a lack of elevators and ramps. Although it remains in the conceptual stage, this innovative design aims to redefine urban scootering by offering enhanced stability and the ability to overcome obstacles.

The MOQBA is designed with four legs that can transition into wheels, enabling it to surmount obstacles like stairs and navigate rough terrain. Its design is a unique fusion of a motorcycle-style saddle and handlebars and a distinctive chassis connected to modular rails and articulated legs.
