The Batman stickers make it for me! I've long been fascinated by how minimal a thing can be made yet still serve its original purpose. This kinda fits in there.

its like they lifted the design off renault , took a wheel off & installed comfier seating.

look at it from behind & then the twizy rear.

ps, why the hell are the photos for that facebook listing so god-awful!?

Despise the nature of one click photography on sales platforms with little or no description bothered with!

(spoon fed generation or utterly stupid percentile of the populace taking over)?

Is that not a Carver. A friend bought one a yr ago. 2 Person in tandem and it leans over to a max of 30deg? going round bends. More of a motorbike really.

I initially thought it may be till seconds later I read the kph (25mph) limitation of speed, the carver EV is 50 odd mph capable (apparantly)
Light cluster is different too, which may simply mean older gen? ..I don't know, or chinese respect for design copyright *cough*

& the carver seemed to have a steering wheel not motorbike handlebars..

It's a curiosity indeed.

I can only see steering wheel models, (not wasting time scouring the internet much though)

The sellers are calling it "Monster" ..not a carver though, but that could mean anything these days (it doesn't help a buyer much though if / when the seller is a lazy & leave you guessing)

So even putting BRAND: MONSTER ..helps..

& look what it turned up
