From the article:

"We really are developing what I would consider a new class of vehicle," Kraus said. "We do something that's a little bit wild, which is we actually put a motor in the vehicle. So even though it's towed, it's also self-propelling. It's supporting its own drag and its own mass."

    It would also do regenerative braking. I've wanted to do the same for a bike trailer, but there is no regulation anywhere that would call it a legal vehicle/combo. Regulations tend to be based on "this is a legal vehicle that is allowed to be on this road" Technically, all motor standup scooters are illegal everywhere that is a public road.
