I’ve got to admire Karl Lagerfield. The world’s economy is crumbling, yet the Chanel designer has released the ultimate fun but frivolous vehicle, the Chanel Segway.
This new black leather personal transporter is a standard issue Segway tricked up with plenty of Chanel glamour. The CC logo proudly adorns the front, wheel, and handlebar. But the real centerpiece is that quilted 2.55 handbag hanging from the front. It won’t provide a lot of storage, but it will carry your wallet and cell phone while you’re scooting around!
These fun vehicles are almost a cross between a motorbike and an old-fashion scooter. Navigating them is easy – you just lean in the direction you want to go. It won’t keep pace on the freeway, but with a top speed of nearly 20 kph it’s entirely appropriate for taking on the urban jungle.
There’s no word yet on price, but you can bet this kind of ride won’t come cheap. Expect to see Paris Hilton zooming about on one of these beauties soon.
