I think they’re talking about e-motos. I wish the term e-bike would be restricted to bicycles but people seem to want to muddy the waters.

I have an e-moto, but then it's vespa shaped so I don't want to sound thirsty calling it an e-moto.

But then, I can't call it an e-scooter as that's one those stand up things. So I opt for e-moped, even though technically a moped is something different in our country everything shaped like a vespa is a moped
