Concept
The Johanson3 electric scooter concept is to replace current polluting and inefficient means of transportation in suburban and urban areas[2] . It is the first light stable vehicle with high payload capacity also designed for women and children. [3]
History
The company was created in 2011 by Johan Neerman CEO. Johanson3 SA emerged out of a family business with numerous prestigious references in the design of public transport systems with more than 40 original vehicles designed worldwide. [4] His father, Philippe Neerman, was Belgian industrial designer.[5][6][1][7]
Several prototypes were made prior to the creation of the company.[8]Most of them were made in Italy and corrected in northern France.It took several years to validate the concept the business model and define the right functionalities. [8] The first mule was designed to validate the propulsion and the ergonomics.[9] The second prototype was materialized in a shorter version and was equipped with two rear engines and was tested successfully.[10][11] Speeds up to 60 km/h were reached with a range of 40 km in full charge.[12]Springs were added making the tilting more efficient and responsive. [13] [14] Many more ergonomic studies and refinement where made on the design side before another prototype was made.
