What last mile solution fits in a Tesla (scooter, one wheel, etc)

[S4WRXTTCS]

I rode my Boosted Board to pick up my Model S.

When I'm at superchargers I'll often ride my boosted board to go somewhere while it's charging. That gives me extra time to eat before heading back before the charge is finished.

I thought about a folding e-bike, but I'm really too tall for folding bikes.

Why not getting those running shoes, you will run 4% faster!

"If a running shoe made you 25 percent faster, would it be fair to wear it in a race?
What about 10 percent? Or 2 percent?
The Nike Zoom Vaporfly 4% — a bouncy, expensive shoe released to the public one year ago — raises these questions
like no shoe in recent distance running history.

Nike says the shoes are about 4 percent better than some of its best racing shoes,
as measured by how much energy runners spend when running in them.
That is an astonishing claim, an efficiency improvement worth almost six minutes to a three-hour marathoner,
or about eight minutes to a four-hour marathoner.

And it may be an accurate one, according to a new analysis by The New York Times of race data
from about 500,000 marathon and half marathon running times since 2014."

And, run the risk of the possibility of another squeaky nike shoe?

I think I'll pass.

Oh, and the last time I ran (not including the elliptical) I was late for chocolate. Wheels were invented so we didn't have to run.

My Brompton was a perfect fit in my Spark EV... would’ve been great if it fit the Model 3 frunk.

The HoverBike (poor nomenclature) looks like a cool solution for those of us with limited mobility. It needs some packaging engineering to make its collapsed form factor more like a carry-on piece of luggage..

 

[CapnOMatic]

These may not fit inside a backpack but they do look fun. I heard they give a good workout and are fun to wear. I figured we are all semi geeky if we have Tesla's so why not be different? Your biggest issue is going to be how to store/carry whatever you are taking with you when you get to your destination.

Wow, thanks for all the replies. I am shocked no one mentioned the Solo style unicycle. I was hoping they fit as I would rather hit a pine cone with a wheel that big than with those skateboards. When I had the 20 MPH electric GoPed the only "accident" I was in was hitting train tracks that let the wheel go in the space and STOP the bike right there. Lots of other devices (except the shoes) will not carry my 260lbs. The OneWheel looks just like riding the hoverboard from Back to the Future, but DAM, $2000?? And awkward to carry.

The only device that has bought my eye is the Kiwano upright unicycle. But in the year plus that I have been waiting for them to come to market, it's seemed to be almost a scam. Send us money and we'll finish developing this. The site finally has an update from this month on it, after NOTHING since June before. Since it is upright and thus not having a large footprint, I hope people will let me take it into wherever I am, it will even follow me as I wonder in a store, cool. It won't fit in the trunk bin or frunk, but then neither will my umbrella. Maybe I can fashion a mount for them under the trunk deck.

How about this one?

One Wheel Electric Motorcycle MH is the Best Hoverboard of Innovative

 

[gilscales]

Or this one, it’s a lot cheaper than the rest and the most compact at only 19” long but even the full size one wheel is only 28” but to big for trunk bin

I use an URB-E Sport GT (URB-E Foldable Electric Vehicle)
Small, light weight, long lasting, relatively comfortable and the battery can be used for other things (has USB ports built in)
Works great on Light Rail too!

I have a Halo Rover board in the frunk. Thinking of trying out the new Segway slaw shoes

 

[gilscales]

This one looks really cool but not made yet so...?

[ℬête Noire]

Are those standard range or long range...

No badging but it's easy to tell. No socks = SR.

...and how long do they take to charge?

They respond poorly to any electrical charging attempt.

Now assume your driver is 65yo and obese.

I regularly toss my Boosted Dual+XR long board in the trunk. It won't fit in the covered bin or the frunk, but Boosted's Mini probably would fit in those spaces.
I've spent a lot of time on Onewheels... so much fun!! But, I wouldn't choose one as my last-mile vehicle.
My personal preference is for a long board due to it's improved stability & comfort, and ability to be pushed/coast.

Boosted Mini fits the frunk!

My folding electric bike fits in the trunk with a cart load of groceries and room to spare

 

[forkee]

Does anyone use a Hoverboard or One Wheel or Electric Skateboard or even a folding bike?

Finding a place to charge, where I can leave the car, would be easier with another form of transportation.

-Randy

I reckon you can fit at least 2 hoverboards in the frunk, plus your favorite pair of Nike's.

Electric unicycles are gaining fast in popularity. Check out this thread why they are more popular than other options:
Why did you choose EUC instead of other type of electric vehicle

I have a Citizen folding bike which easily fits in the trunk. I recently added an electric motor to the front wheel to make it easy for city travel.
