Best Buy to start selling electric vehicles

Best Buy has now entered into the electric vehicle market by offering customers the chance to buy electric motorcycles, scooters, and Segways. These products have slowly been introduced into various Best Buy locations since the spring. Over twenty west coast Best Buy stores now carry these products.

To expand even more on their electric vehicle inventory, Best Buy plans to start selling the Brammo Enertia this month. The Brammo Enertia is a compact electric motorcycle with the ability to charge in less than three hours. It gets approximately 373 miles per gallon of gasoline and can reach speeds as high as 50 miles per hour. It also has an on board web server. The bike retails for close to $12,000 so it is unlikely that Best Buy will bring in big bucks from the venture.

The CEO of Best Buy has stated that the new electric vehicle line is the company’s chance to further diversify their product line and to offer consumers the chance to access the latest technologies.
