Hyosung ST-E3 Electric Scooter Coming to America in 2011

Hyosung recently unveiled its new eco-friendly and energy efficient electric scooter called the ST E3 in Korea. ST E3 has a range of
approximately 120 km (74.6 miles) on a single charge while traveling at
a constant speed of 35 km/h (21.7 mph). Maximum speed is estimated at
60 km/h (37.3 mph).

With its VFD (Vacuum Fluorescent Display), the ride can easily read battery status, scooter body condition, and drive condition all simultaneously. The adoption of the MCU (Motor Control Unit) constantly checks overcharge and over-current and adjusts for premium conditions.

Hyosung Motors America, Inc. plans to launch the ST-E3 in United States, Canada and South America in 2011.

The Sturgis Motorcycle Museum and Hall of Fame recently named Marilyn Stemp and Steve Piehl to its board of directors.

Stemp is a pioneering figure in the motorcycle industry, founding IronWorks Magazine with her late husband, Dennis, and becoming the first female editor of a nationally circulated, mainstream motorcycle magazine. She also revived their trade magazine, Iron Trader News; edits the monthly Kiwi Indian News; contributes to several powersports media outlets; and is the founding editor of Sturgis Rider Daily. Stemp is a noted editor and writer of several motorcycle-focused books. Her consistent support for charitable efforts in the industry include the annual Biker Belles Celebration, Las Vegas BikeFest and as campaign chair for the Sturgis Motorcycle Museum’s development plan in 2014. She co-founded the Flying Piston charity events taking place in Daytona and Sturgis each year and is a National Ambassador for All Kids Bike. Stemp was inducted into both the Las Vegas Motorcycle Hall of Fame and the Sturgis Museum's Hall of Fame in 2018, and in 2022 she was recognized as one of the Top 100 Women in Powersports by DealerNews.
