An announcement in the Stellaspeed forums (Thanks Julie), gives us the scoop on Genuine’s two new scoots. One is the Buddy, and it looks like this:

The other is the Black Cat (special edition?) and it looks like this:

Other than looking like PGO products, we don’t have any other specs at this point on the Buddy.
But if you want to see MORE on the Black Cat, go to Black Cat’s website. There you will find a press release on the 50cc Black Cat… here’s a snippet:

Chicago, IL / Prairie Village, KS (February 16, 2006): Today, the Leading
Consumer Brand of Fireworks in the US, Black Cat, and the makers of Stella – one
of America’s most popular motor scooters, Genuine Scooter Company, announced an
exciting and innovative Brand association.

Genuine Scooter has been
awarded an exclusive License for the Black Cat brand, to be used in their
upcoming, top of the line 50cc Sport Model, expected to be in dealer showrooms
by late April of this year.

“As we continue to build on our Brand’s strongest attributes, we believe we have another homerun with this partnership”, said Adrian Toader, VP of Marketing and Brand Management for Black Cat Marketing USA. “The common fun, nostalgia, and non-conformist attributes of our Brands make for some incredible and unique synergies!”.

Philip McCaleb of Genuine Scooter Company added: “This co-branding opportunity hits right on target to put a “bang” into the introduction of a unique product, the Black Cat scooter. An ‘explosive’ performer, it will be a blast for every firework’s lover and scooter enthusiast in America. We feel this product will be an instant hit
and ‘collectible- right out of the box.’ We are grateful for the opportunity to launch the Black Cat scooter through our USA dealer network and pleased that our
partners at Black Cat Marketing share our enthusiasm.”
