Fear not, Best Buy is ready to breakout in a new direction. Innovative companies always have a way to apply their resources in new directions. The Wall Street Journal’s “Best Buy to Sell Green Vehicles” reports that the store has begun selling electric scooters, bicycles and even Segways in 19 California, Oregon and Washington locations.
The $11,995 Brammo Enertia electric motorcycle will be coming to Best Buy soon. This is a clear reminder of when the company created an ecosystem around the high cost flat panel HDTVs. Best Buy is preparing to just replace one electronic revenue driver with another. Electronic transports are now clean enough and cool enough for general retail. Wal-Mart (WMT) and Target (TGT) will be next.
