This looks interesting. An Electric scooter from Seat, part of the VW group.
https://www.seat.co.uk/mo/seat-mo-125.html

60mph, 85 mile theoretical range, and a battery that you can detach and charge inside the house. £5800 in the UK after the grant.

Only about 2x the price needed for it to stick! Other than that, looks great.

Doesn't vw group also own MV Augusta?

Don't know about MV, but they own Ducati.
For comparison the Vespa Elettrica cost £6300 and only does 43mph, and a Primavera 125 is £4350.

At £5k after subsidy, this looks pretty competitive.

That price sounds ridiculous for the performance/range it offers. I wonder if it will make its way to the US?

No, Mercedes used to own an interest in MV Agusta but sold it about 5 years ago. My understanding is that MV Agusta is owned by the Castiglioni family and the Black Ocean Group.
