Usain is the latest Bolt to sprint into the EV race

Former Olympian Usain Bolt holds the world records in the 100-meter and 200-meter sprints. But if you need to go a little farther than that, Bolt says he has just the solution.

His company, Bolt Mobility — apparently, everyone has a mobility startup these days — last month unveiled a two-seat electric vehicle called the Bolt Nano, or B-Nano for short, that features a swappable battery and a price tag of less than $10,000.

Bolt, no relation to the Chevrolet EV, worked with engineers in Florida to design the car primarily for travel within 15 miles, The Drive reported. The company is taking reservations for $999 and says it will start delivering the cars in 2020.

"Through its portfolio of micromobility products, Bolt Mobility fulfills the dream that many of us share to operate in a world where our vehicles will fit perfectly into the fabric of our urban environments while respecting the air we breathe," the 6-foot-5 Jamaican said in a statement issued by his company.

When Bolt isn't running faster than everyone else on Earth or promoting EVs, he has been pushing a line of electric scooters to compete with Bird, Lime and Spin. Oddly, though, he launched the scooter venture in New York City, where the scooters are illegal.
