Officially Launched in Brazil, the New Electric Scooter Bee Type 2 Costs R$ 12,990, Has a Range of 60 km and Can Be Ridden Without a Driving License. With Retro Visuals and Modern Technology, the Electric Bike Emerges as a Sustainable Alternative for Urban Transport.
Urban mobility is changing — and with it, the profile of vehicles that circulate in Brazilian cities. Bee, a Brazilian startup specialized in electric micromobility, has just launched a model that promises to attract attention and break paradigms: the new electric ‘motinha’ Bee Type 2. Compact, stylish, affordable, and with ideal autonomy for daily use, the novelty stands out for not requiring a driver’s license and for offering a set that balances sustainability and convenience.
The new electric scooter from Bee arrives on the market with a promotional price of R$ 12,990 and promises to win over consumers looking for a practical, economical means of transportation with a unique design. With a design reminiscent of classic Italian scooters, the Bee Type 2 bets on a combination of retro style and technology to stand out in a rapidly expanding market.
Design Inspired by Italian Scooters and Sustainable Construction
The first distinctive feature of the electric scooter Bee Type 2 is its design. The fairing immediately brings to mind the famous Italian “vespinhas,” with curved lines and details that deliver a charming retro aesthetic. But there’s more than just style: the finish is made with recycled and scratch-resistant materials, reinforcing the commitment to sustainability.

Among the visual details that catch the eye are the Angel Eye headlight, the digital panel styled like the Tetris game, and minimalistic graphics. Additionally, the model is available in military green and coyote beige, colors that give an urban and modern touch to the electric motinha.
Another highlight in the design of the new electric scooter is the inclined monoshock shock absorber, installed at the rear, which ensures more comfort for the rider and stability during maneuvers — an important item especially on bumpy roads or longer routes.
Electric Motor with Urban Performance and Exemption from Drivers License
The Bee Type 2 is equipped with a 1,000 W electric motor manufactured by Keeway, a company in the Geely group — a Chinese conglomerate that also controls brands such as Volvo and Lotus. The maximum speed of the scooter is 32 km/h, which classifies it as a self-propelled vehicle, according to Resolution No. 996/2023 of CONTRAN.
This classification is essential because it exempts the need for a driver’s license (CNH) and registration, broadening the potential audience for the electric motinha. Young people, students, delivery drivers, and even those who have not yet obtained their driver’s license can legally ride the Bee Type 2 on public roads.
Focusing on urban efficiency, the performance of the motinha perfectly meets everyday needs. With reduced weight and good initial acceleration, it is ideal for short and medium distances within the city.
Removable Battery with Up to 60 km of Autonomy
One of the strong points of the new electric motorcycle that doesn’t require a driver’s license is its autonomy. The Bee Type 2 comes equipped with a removable 24Ah lithium battery that can be charged at any household outlet. The autonomy reaches 60 km per charge, a value sufficient for daily commutes in the city.
The charging time varies between 6 and 8 hours, allowing the user to leave the battery charging overnight or at the workplace. The company has also announced that it is already studying the launch of fast charging versions, which should further enhance the convenience of use.
Another differential is the fact that the battery is removable, allowing the driver to take it to recharge in enclosed spaces, such as apartments or offices, without needing to bring the scooter to an outlet.
Light, Economical and Capable of Carrying Two Adults
With only 70 kg of weight with the battery installed, the Bee Type 2 is one of the lightest electric scooters available in Brazil. This characteristic makes maneuvers easier, reduces the effort when parking, and ensures greater agility in heavy city traffic.
Even though it is light, the scooter does not disappoint in robustness. Its load capacity is up to 180 kg, allowing for the comfortable transport of two adults. This factor broadens the usability of the model for couples, delivery drivers, or logistics app drivers handling light volumes.
Additionally, being electric, the Bee Type 2 emits no pollutants, makes no noise, and has a very low operating cost, making it ideal for those looking for a more sustainable and economical means of transportation in the long term.
Safety Items and Embedded Technology
The new electric scooter from Bee also stands out for its package of equipment. Despite the competitive price, the model includes:
- Disc brakes on both wheels, providing greater braking efficiency;
- 10-inch alloy wheels, with tubeless tires (3.50-10), which reduce the risk of punctures;
- Anti-theft system with alarm and NFC card, which enhances security against theft;
- USB port for charging cellphones, an essential item for those using the vehicle daily;
- Reverse gear, which facilitates maneuvers in tight spaces.
These features show that, even being an electric motorcycle that doesn’t require a driver’s license, the Bee Type 2 was designed to deliver practicality and comfort, with differentiators that usually appear only in higher-category models.
International Partnership and Expansion of the Bee Brand
The new electric scooter Bee Type 2 is the result of a partnership between the Brazilian Bee and the manufacturer Keeway from China, strengthening technological exchange between the countries. Keeway provides the motor, the mechanical components, and the chassis, ensuring international quality standards for the electric motinha.
Currently, Bee has five owned stores in Brazil and is already operating in Portugal and Spain. The company announced plans to expand its physical presence in the national territory, with new stores and technical assistance points.
Furthermore, a new line of electric scooters and bicycles is in development, featuring more autonomy, app connectivity, and telemetry features. Bee intends to lead the electric micromobility segment in Brazil, democratizing access to clean technology.
Price, Conditions and Delivery Throughout Brazil
The promotional price of the Bee Type 2 electric motorcycle is R$ 12,990, a competitive value considering the package of items and the exemption from a driver’s license. Bee also offers installments up to 12 times with no interest, making the model even more accessible for those needing a practical and economical transportation option.
Delivery is available throughout Brazil, with shipping costs calculated according to the region. The company also provides technical support and direct contact channels via WhatsApp, email, and physical store, which is essential for consumers purchasing an electric vehicle for the first time.
