Description
The current owner inherited the Eloped from his father, a well-known entrepreneur and car enthusiast who owned several collector vehicles. It has been part of the family’s collection since the 1980s. The heirs have now decided to sell the electric moped and hope it will end up with someone who appreciates electric vehicles.
This is a ??????ce auction. The images and information about the moped and its technical condition have been provided by the owner. BWA has therefore not inspected the vehicle on site.
Technical data
Condition
-
Mechanical condition
Equipped with a 24-volt electric motor powered by two standard 12-volt car batteries. The batteries are missing from this Eloped, but they can be easily sourced on the open market (see example image). A specially designed Berix battery charger is included.
The Eloped has been part of a collection and has not been in operation for 25 years. -
Exterior condition
Normal wear from light use and subsequent storage in a collection. The rubber gaiters over the front fork shock absorbers have dried out and cracked—primarily a cosmetic issue. There is also some damage to the seat upholstery.
-
General condition
A typically innovative product of the optimistic 1980s—a time when everything seemed possible. The idea was sound, but the technology of the era proved to be a limiting factor. Today, early electric vehicles are on their way to achieving cult status.
Facts about the model
Founder Leif Berix also published the magazine Elfordons-Nytt for a few years in the early 1990s. He passed away in the summer of 2023. His legacy has included some controversial aspects, gaining significant media attention when it emerged after his death that he had bequeathed a large sum of money to the Sweden Democrats.
Berix Svenska AB ceased operations in 2022.

General information about the condition of the vehicles .
- At this auction, many vehicles have been included in car collections and have been stored (mothballed) for a long time. For this reason, they are described from a collector's perspective and may need technical reviews and maintenance service - oil, battery replacement, new tires, brake review, etc. - before they can be used. .
- During the auction days information about a vehicle may be updated up to the day before the auction ends. When you bid at the end of the auction period - and also if you have made an earlier bid - we therefore ask you to read the descriptions carefully, in case something has been changed due to new information.
