Does the new Like 200i also have a kick starter?

Hello, Can't find this info anywhere:
Do these new Like 200i scooters come with electric and kick starters?

And, I'm feeling a little peculiar.

Hello again, The Like200i has only an electric starter and no kick. The Like 50 has both kick and electric. The Kymco Agility  has both as well.

I'm told you can't use a kick starter with EFI because the electric fuel pump has to be working for it to start.

In my old bike that has an AC fired CDI, I use the kick starter when the battery is very weak and can't turn the engine... In my new Kymco that has a DC CDI, I can't use the kick starter if the battery is weak because it has to have the right voltage to fire up the engine....so.... what is the purpose of the kick starter on my scoot?   ::)   any thoughts?
