Modobag- Changing The Way To The World Travels
If you miss your next flight, there is no need to worry because this rideable luggage will keep you occupied in an airport terminal for hours. Modobag is the world’s first motorized suitcase. This innovative product was invented by Chicago entrepreneur and avid traveler Kevin O’Donnell.
The Modobag is a revolutionary piece of motorized carry-on luggage. With 1800 cubic inches of packing space, the Modobag can accommodate riders up to 260 lbs. Modobag will retail for $1495.
The bag can travel up to 6+ miles on a single charge. It is lightweight, and can easily convert from motor to pull-behind use. It comes with dual USB charging ports for your electronics and optional GPRS-GSM tracking.
The Modobag is a standard airline carry-on bag, so you can keep it with you when you fly. You’ll lose about 20 percent of the luggage space to the batteries, motor, control stick and other pieces required to motorize it.
It can be pulled like a conventional bag but the developers envisage you won’t be doing much of that. Instead, you’ll take a seat on the bag, pull up the handle, press down on the accelerator and speed off. Little foot rests fold out from the side of the bag to make riding easier and the sturdy wheels, similar to those on skateboards, appear strong enough to take
