The world of small, practical electric transport has exploded (not literally, usually) over the past few years, and there’s never been more choice if you want to get around town without petrol. It’s hard to navigate all the new brands mind, so this one sticks out a bit – it’s the new MÓ electric scooter, from the Seat car firm. SEAT – or Sociedad Española de Automóviles de Turismo – is the Spanish division of the giant Volkswagen Audi car group, and brings a massive chunk of credibility and backup to this new bike. In fact, the MÓ is a rebranded variant of the Silence scooter, another Spanish firm, but in the UK it’s being imported, sold and backed up by the SEAT firm and its car dealer network.

Ducati Riding Experience
When I rode the Ducati DesertX to France last year, I did have a bit of an explore on some easy fire roads and gentle green lanes in the wilds of the Médoc area, but was left with the feeling that, had I the experience, the DesertX would have been capable of taking me along some more extreme trails to some even more exciting places. If only there was a way of finding out just how well the Italian adventure bike could cope with some more extreme terrain...

First Time Lucky?
It's ironic that the first all-new MV Agusta model to hit the marketplace right after Italy's No.1 trophy brand was acquired by Austrian giant Pierer Mobility, owner of off-road titans KTM, should be the company's first dual-purpose model of the modern era, powered by MV's all-new 931cc three-cylinder engine that's destined to form the basis of a whole series of new models in coming months and years.
