Range refers to the distance a scooter can travel before it runs out of battery power. The range of your electric scooter will depend on various factors, including motor power, battery capacity, rider weight, scooter weight, weather, riding mode, and average speed.
Contact us to discuss your requirements of electric scooter street. Our experienced sales team can help you identify the options that best suit your needs.
To give consumers the most accurate and realistic range assessment, we perform rigorous real-world tests on every electric scooter we receive and display the data on our scooter database.
To ensure standardization and reliable results-our RG-certified range test is performed by the same rider on the same urban route with frequent stops, rough roads, and uphill climbs in the scooter&#;s highest performance mode. The 165 lb rider pushes the scooter to its limit, maxing out the throttle and riding until the battery dies completely.
There is no denying it, manufacturers have been known to overstate the range of their electric scooters. This is why we advise a cautious rule of thumb to err on the side of caution &#; take whatever they advertise and divide it by two. This is especially true given that the results from our electric scooter survey conducted in showed that many vendors overstate the actual range of their scooters by up to 30%.
To ensure you find the right scooter for your needs, calculate the number of miles you will cover for your regular commute (to and from) and then look for a scooter that can deliver that same amount with a few extra miles left as a buffer. This should give you plenty of leeway in case of unexpected events.
You can&#;t think about range without talking about batteries. In regards to this, two elements come into play: brand and battery capacity.
Known brands such as LG, Panasonic, and Samsung tend to be more reliable and have longer expected lifespans than generic brands.
When it comes to capacity (the amount of power stored in each battery&#;typically measured in watt hours (Wh) ); the higher the battery capacity, the greater its range will be. To illustrate this point: the Minimotors Dualtron X Limited has a 5,040 Watt hour LG battery that allows it to reach 86.4 miles of tested range, while the Segway Ninebot Air T15&#;s branded battery only offers 4.2 miles due to its comparatively lower capacity of 144 Wh.

However, like all batteries, your battery capacity (and scooter range) will diminish as time goes by. Most batteries will maintain their integrity for at least 300 to 500 charging cycles, with the best batteries enduring up to charging cycles before beginning to degrade.
Pro Tip: You can bring your charger with you or buy an extra charger to leave at your destination. Some high-performance scooters have dual charging ports, cutting charge time in half when using two chargers. You can also purchase an extra battery for scooters that have a removable battery configuration like the Anyhill UM-2, EMOVE RoadRunner, TurboAnt X7 Max, or Minimotor&#;s Dualtron Storm.
Although it doesn&#;t take long to gain experience riding an electric scooter, some high performance models are more than most can handle (in speed and physical weight).
An electric scooter&#;s specs will greatly impact its cost and performance &#; just like cars &#; and advanced vehicles need experienced drivers. Do you know how to drive a Formula 1 car? Not without prior experience, and you should expect the same riding scooters.
If your experience is limited to riding rental scooters, even our beginner model, the EMOVE Touring, will be a huge level up in performance &#; about 10-15 mph (15-24 km/h) higher top speed and triple the range of shared scooters.
With a year or more experience riding PEV, you&#;ve probably figured out how fast and far you&#;re comfortable riding, and looking for more advanced features.
Here&#;s categories for beginner, commuter, luxury commuter, and expert electric scooters, matching rider experience with estimated top speed, estimated range, and feature package.
