There’s nothing in the world you could say to make me believe this isn’t a scooter. Well then again there are quite a few things. There’s no scooter engine and no wheels, you’re standing up and there’s no extra room for your gloves.

The Hover Scooter will make you fly even if it’s not a real scooter. It has an engine that powers up a fan which lifts the scooter above the ground. The stream of air from a vent in the rear will help you steer the scooter. You will have to use your body and weight to take turns and accelerate. You get a top speed of 15 mph but you will need about 20 feet to stop. The thing cost $17,000! Well it’s not a scooter, it’s a thing!
