She was scootin' around on one of these. Here is another link, of Marques Brownlee giving specs and driving one.
That's not really a suit case though. That's a foldable bike.
I guess you are right, my bad. Still the commercial for it is hilarious.

This is the purest form of battery-on-wheels I can imagine and I find this highly amusing.
Except the one Marques has can go 15mph, or about 24kph, almost twice that of the one in the article.
My bad.
