Top 10 Electric Scooters and Smart Mopeds (2018 Models and Prices Reviewed)

Riding a bicycle is a fun and healthy activity. However, what if getting to your final destination without breaking a sweat and becoming all gross is key? In that case, one of the options that you have is riding a compact and super maneuverable moped scooter. This type of transportation is becoming more and more popular due to the possibility to reach any corner and some models not even requiring a driver’s license.
Since we are fans of electric vehicles on this channel we would like to review the best solely electric models that are not only matching all of the major criteria of a standard scooter, but surpass them in terms of briskly acceleration, zero noise and zero emission, so every last corner of your downtown should be within your reach, even if emission regulations are in place.

[@boabiewee2548]

Glad to find someone promoting their goods and including the price

I wouldn't say that I'm promoting anything, I'm giving consumer advice to my viewers. I spend time doing research, so do have to do less of it.

[@magnusjohansson295]

Thank you for this video! The world is lucky now that we have these fun, modern and ecofriendly vehicles. I want one!

[@automotiveterritory]

Hi there! Glad that I managed to reach out to you! Which model is your favorite?

[@borobo0729]

Have Gogoro S for an year now. The speed is less than 3.7 sec from 0-30. It's fast scooter compares with the prices of others and the long range, not to mention the 6 seconds to get fresh battery for another 60+ miles.

[@automotiveterritory]

So glad to hear that! Getting feedback from people, who actually have the products from the video is amazing.

[@jorgemendez4517]

NIU rules baby

[@GreenMopeds]

Niu is proving really popular with our customers here in the UK. Once they have ridden them, they love them. both the N or M

[@automotiveterritory]

Awesome to hear it. I actually just made a new video about electric scooters. You should check it out too: kzbin.info/www/bejne/qGbWg4eqgJKqptE Do you have any of these in the UK?

[@automotiveterritory]

!!!UPDATE!!! You must have noticed the wrong acceleration parameter for the first scooter Gogoro in the voice over. It should be 0-30 mph in 4.3 sec. We apologise for the confusion. But nevertheless, would you like your scooter to do 0-60 mph that fast? Let us know in the comments below.

[@magnuswf]

An electric scooter doing 0-60 in 4.3 would be the perfect sleeper!! I'd leave fast cars in the dust with my f*cking scooter!!!

You come to work, leave your scooter in the plug, got back home with a full charge.

[@davidcoro27]

Bike 1 is my choice.

[@automotiveterritory]

Pretty cool scoot, right? What about the Niu? It is the second best in my opinion.

[@waynerussell6401]

It is a Taiwanese ride sharing concept with swappable battery pack so I guess the price does not include battery?

[@macatyutube]

Yes. NT$299/per month include 100KM

[@zhonghuang100]

My Niu M1 cost me about $700 here in China 2016. Its top speed is only 27 mph.

[@User-Yu1981]

Gogoro have NT$699/Unlimited km/month.

[@daytriker]

I'm all for city vehicles going electric but for my money I'll stick to a decent folding electric bike. It can stay with me so no fear of theft, I can ride it & get exercise, has a range of 50 miles, is light weight so I can carry it up stairs, put it in the car, has a top speed of 40 kms. no licence, insurance or tax & if I run out of power I can still pedal it home. At a cost of $1500. pretty hard to beat as far as I am concerned.

[@automotiveterritory]

Do you mean an electric bicycles with pedal assist? You see that modern electric bicycles are a bit overpowered and many countries have already set legislation limiting the top speed for this type of vehicles. I have already reviewed electric bicycles on this channel too. But I personally like that most of e-scooters have detachable batteries. Haven't seen many e-bicycles with such a feature.

[@daytriker]

Most LEGAL Power Assist Bicycles are limited to 25kms/hr in Europe & 32 Kms/hr. in North America. That doesn't mean they can't go faster, that's just when the power is programmed to cut out which is fine with me. The Power Assist is usually needed when muscle power is not sufficient. Europe restricts them to Pedal Assist Only without a licence but North American rules mean you can have both, although not necessary in my opinion. As for battery removal, I don't know about the current batch of manufacturers offerings but all conversion kits allow you to remove the battery for charging or replacement.

[@advenchowsmunchows3619]

whats the brand and prdocut you're referring to?

[@CTSHFS]

I just got my Gogoro S2 for a month , the newest product from Gogoro Company. I love it so much.

[@automotiveterritory]

How much did you get it for?

[@CTSHFS]

about 3200 USD.

[@automotiveterritory]

Awesome! Thanks for sharing. Btw, How many miles of real life range do your get?

[@CTSHFS]

@@automotiveterritory 40 miles average , 50 miles is my best record. Some people can go 60 miles before they replace the new batteries. Depend on your right hand!!

[@automotiveterritory]

Good to know. Would you say that riding at higher speeds drains the batteries faster?

[@stanleybribri]

GOGORO , the best choice !

[@automotiveterritory]

Certainly one of the best.

[@antonv.]

Nice!!

[@GPsDQtCWuSg]

My favorites are the first, although, I don't like the design very much. The NES, great design, but pricy (double). And probably my top pick, simply best bang for the buck is the Chinese M1, which also has an acceptable design.

[@guest-fk2dGhDjRhf5]

Gogoro has good speed performance and nice app with high security. But to be global, the charging system is the key! It could be limit Gogoro spreading to the world. You can see Gogoro in Berlin now.

[@dwathen9]

I live in China and bought an electric scooter similar in quality to the Una. I paid the equivalent of about $400 USD. Five 12 volt lead acid batteries.

I like the price range and top speed of gogoro. Wish it's for sale in US

[@automotiveterritory]

Let's hope they start selling them here too because it's a decent scooter indeed.

[@ivorholtskog5506]

What about Canada?

[@meaghanpayeur6629]

Emmo has an excellent line of scooters.

[@automotiveterritory]

Can you please share the link to the official website of this manufacturer?

[@jorgemendez4517]

IMO you put NIU too far behind on the list, when probably is the brand that has sold the most (over 350,000 units in 2 years) and gives more than others.

[@automotiveterritory]

Thank you for your comment. I wouldnt say that these scooters are in any particular order, I was not trying to rate them, but rather share the information, that people have lots of options. Hope you liked the lineup! See you soon!

[@moriwaki80]

All the ranges seem super optimistic, especially with the small size of battery packs. Can only think they did the tests on a level surface at 20mph with no stops and starts which isn't realistic?

[@automotiveterritory]

These are the questions that only manufacturers can answer. Of course, some of the ranges sound optimistic, as you mentioned. But there are standards for measuring the range, so they shouldn't be really far off from the real-world range.

[@moriwaki80]

I tried to find more and it was mentioned the Gogoro range is based on flat ground at a constant 25kph which could explain it. I've built my own electric scooter so pretty familiar with real range, though it's more hilly city driving with average speed of maybe 45kph. With a 3kWh battery expect about 35 mile range. If I drove like a granny on flat ground maybe could make 45 miles?

[@automotiveterritory]

First of all, scooter is a urban form of transport, so a it's no wonder they tested it under such conditions. I rarely see people driving scooters at highway speeds.

[@hdidane00]

when will the Gogoro or M1 be available in the us? whats the top speed of the M1?

[@automotiveterritory]

Links to official websites are in the description.

[@troyp9485]

hdidane00 Trump’s tariffs don’t make this a good time for Chinese manufacturers. Nui scooters do get importer here but the tariffs aren’t naming them competitive with gas scooters.

[@jashton8710]

Gogoro and Muvi are the winners imo. Most bang for the buck.

[@automotiveterritory]

The NIU M1 is also worth checking out in my opinion.

[@GPsDQtCWuSg]

Automotive Territory: Trending News & Car Reviews Yup, that's my pick for best bang for buck.

[@automotiveterritory]

Did you convert the currency to US dollars?

[@automotiveterritory]

All prices in this video were converted to USD. The official website of Gogoro probably displays prices in local currency by default.

[@chandrasekharpanigrahi2474]

Ya Muvi was best among all these

[@opwave79]

I'm going to check these out. I have yo find one that can handle the big hill in my neighborhood. It's a one mile, 700 ft elevation.

[@automotiveterritory]

I've listed all of the links to official websites in the description, so you shouldn't have any trouble finding the ones that are available in your area.

[@normoloid]

Nito's shape would allow putting a solar panel and saddle used as a magnifying glass to enhance charge while parked.

[@automotiveterritory]

Yeah, it would be a great option, if they could engineer and add something like that.

[@tuskedbeast]

Is this the right place to ask tech and transport related questions?

[@automotiveterritory]

Out of all tech and transport related questions and discussions that we could have, this is what you are asking?

[@cheniscus123]

A powerful scooter which has good acceleration and a specially developed capacitor power storage unit which can be charged more or less instantly with more then adequate suspension will be an ideal scooter, do not forget to add a reasonable price tag.

[@automotiveterritory]

How "reasonable" the price tag should be?

[@mangreat71]

how do you use a 860 or 900 cca car battery cause I think it would increase the travel distance ?

[@automotiveterritory]

Thanks for your comment. Unfortunately, I won't be able to answer this question. You will have to suggest the idea to manufacturers. The links to their websites are in the description

[@deathincarnatesplace]

scooter motors at idle can do the same thing just put a belt on the motor with a big wheel and a small one on the generator and the transform for amperage step up and you will get 1000 km good luck.

[@ufohunter3688]

Fonz should have a horn that goes "Heyyyyy" when pushed. Like Fonzy from happy days!

[@automotiveterritory]

Pretty cool reference.

[@automotiveterritory]

[@MrGoogle87]

My take: there are no good long range scooters. With help I’ve build my own 4.5kWh moped conversion. TinyBMS, panasonic batteries and kelly controllers. From a previous brand “Novox - c50” it has a retro look like vespa. Should be good for 150km or more :)

[@automotiveterritory]

Scooter is an amazing means of city transportation, so long range is something that not many people look for, when buying a scooter. However, I'm glad to hear that you've found a way to turn your scooter into a long range one.

[@mangreat71]

What electric scooter or bike i can change the battery if it goes dead ?

[@automotiveterritory]

Electric vehicles aren't much different from the gas counterparts, whenever you need something changes - you either ask your mechanic to source a used replacement part or look for a new one.

[@GreenMopeds]

Great to see the Torrot and Askoll make the grade on here. Both are available in the UK from Green-Mopeds.com

[@automotiveterritory]

Great, thanks for letting everybody know.

[@blakutnuj]

I actually like these scooters more than the electric motorcycles that you recently reviewed. Prices are much more appealing and you won't expect much from a scooter in terms of long range, so 60 miles could be forgiven.

[@technewsbydmitriy8422]

Nothing beats a Zero S electric motorcycle, though. It is an amazing bike, dont you agree?

[@howardhawkey7728]

..lakutnuj

[@deathincarnatesplace]

hey use the motor to turn a generator then add another motor afterwards may require a transformer but it extend the battery when used with a big wheel on the old motor to turn the 30 magnet two rotation generator with a 1\4 inch pin. remember to battery now runs on the tiniest trickle to turn the generator for maximum battery longevity. it will make a best 1500 km out of 15 km good luck. you can also use ebike motor to get best result. stick generator (it looks like a glass bottle laying on its side and it spins as easy a rollerblade.) you may need a transformer to step up amperage for the scooter motor. good luck and may you ride a long time.

[@automotiveterritory]

Thank you for your comment. But I dont really think this is how physics works, sadly 15 km range wont get you 1500 no matter what magic you perform

[@deathincarnatesplace]

hey i am alva like thomas alva edison. the reason they usually don't work is that people use emp devices on them to stop them from working. besides 1500 km is just the absolute max. big oil will break them by the way. if you don't believe try to make one in texas and it will never work. also 1500 km is with an ebike motor running a large wheel at its slowest settings. using the tesla stick generator. also it can be done with a scooter motor at idle running generator with a big wheel to small wheel then using a transformer to control the energy. also you can make 20000 volts using the same system using just a one twenty conveyor motor.

[@automotiveterritory]

You seem to be very confident in your theory. If it's so easy, why hasn't anyone, including you, done this, started selling this and become insanely rich from it?

[@deathincarnatesplace]

i told elon musk and his new electric truck goes 500 miles on battery charge.

[@deathincarnatesplace]

here is the youtube channel associated with elon musk semi truck. please see it for yourself. (Elon Musk Gives First Look At Tesla's Electric Semi) also i told tata nano about my idea and here is the title on the suspect car and what the operator told (auto tub) 1160 km tata nano ev. i made this idea and gave it away so what it is for anybody to use. i have told countless people about it just to make it open source. so have fun and make your own and stop acting like it isn't real please.

[@John.23]

I think the data of Fonz electric scooter may be wrong, the power is 8.5Kw? Thats more than Gogoro's 6.4Kw but top speed is less than gogoro.

[@automotiveterritory]

I think that it may be caused by the difference in size/weight. All of the specs come from official manufacturer websites. All of the links may be found in the description.

[@moriwaki80]

It's all to do with gearing and the KV of the motor so normal.

[@sentientarc]

The future is coming, in spite the efforts of Big Oil and its backers (like the Queen of Holland, a principal shareholder of Royal Dutch Shell). E-Bikes have fast acceleration, low noise, no emissions, very low maintenance. Better models have high top speeds. Bike 1, the Gogoro has swappable batteries and charging stations all over Taiwan. The Gogoro therefore, has the same non-stop functionality as a gasoline/petrol scooter.

[@automotiveterritory]

You are right. I wish there were more types of electric vehicles, so we have a bigger pool of opportunities to choose from.

[@sentientarc]

+Automotive Territory: Trending News & Car Reviews I agree. Also, a standard battery for say, 2 wheel,,4 wheel and then heavier duty vehicles would mean range issues would be obsolete. I also like the idea of returning to body-on-frame vehicles and having the chance to own more than one body for just one frame (4 door sedan but also a pickup truck).

Electric bicycles look exactly the same as regular ones (they only have a thicker frame to house the battery packs). As for the scooters, they don't seem to be much different from regular ones. There is even an electric Vespa (it didn't make to this video though).

[@tiramisu8359]

[@automotiveterritory]

I would say it depends on the selected model. Which one are you referring to?

[@odiotutti2887]

M1

[@automotiveterritory]

Here is the link to the manual guide download.niucache.com/manual/en/M_Manual_en_V1.5.pdf However, if I am not mistaken the charging process consumes 200 Wh.

[@odiotutti2887]

Thank you :D

Did I just hear Gogoro 0-60mph acceleration is 4point something seconds and then that the top speed is 55mph?

[@automotiveterritory]

I don't recall saying something like this. It should be 0-25 mph (0-40 km/h) because it's the most common speed that scooters travel at in city zones.

[@kiritanJ]

2:00

[@automotiveterritory]

It might be a mistake, let me check.

[@automotiveterritory]

I double checked. You are correct, I misspoke and said 0 to 60 instead of 0 to 30 mph. Sorry about the mistake. The correct numbers are on the screen though.

[@kiritanJ]

I'm happy I could be of help.

[@shukracharya_]

Ather 340s is awesome

[@automotiveterritory]

Do you own it? If so, feel free to share your experience.

[@five3ighteen76]

The legal speed for an ebike is 20mph, that's absurd. I have done 28.6 mph on my street bicycle, with an average 21mph at 10 mile trip.

[@automotiveterritory]

Rules are rules. Your street bicycle was propelled by you, not an electric motor, is this correct?

[@siddharthrastogi8644]

expensive............. in india hero motors are leading e bike maker... i am using PHOTON model its on road price is nearly just 750 USD............ isn't it amazing...........

[@automotiveterritory]

The price is indeed amazing, and if the quality is also high, then this scooter is a real steal! I will have to take a look at it, though. Thank you for the suggestion. Do you have any other scooters that we missed on your mind?

[@siddharthrastogi8644]

there a a lot to know about hero e scooters u should check online .. all scooters from hero elecric are value to money but speed is a bit low ranging from 25 KMph to 40 KMph varying from model to model ,. hero offers 4-5 models in diffrent price range from 375 USD TO 750 USD ,, hero has also inroduced 2.0 models with some kind of advance battries, these adv. battries are covered with a 3 year manufacturer warranty and said to be have more distance covering range upto 60 km in one charge of 5 hrs , company is expected to charge additional 200 USD for 2.0 versions.. well i noticed that u reply most of the comments... i appreciate that ,,, good going.. gud luck for ur channel

I say this are just scooters and no mopeds. A moped is like Yamaha DT 50 for example. Scooters are looking like rolling toilets.😂🤘🏼

Thanks for your comment. These two notions are rather close and pretty interchangeable so we thought using both will ensure that everyone understands what the video is about.Do you think these electric models could compete with Yamaha DT 50?

[@rexxbailey2764]

WHY WUD ANYONE BUY THESE WHEN THEY CAN GET MUCH MORE AWESOME ELECTRIC BICYCLES AND SMART BIKES NOW :-/

[@automotiveterritory]

By the looks of it, a scooter is a bit more comfortable to ride than an electric bicycle, don't you think?

[@rexxbailey2764]

WELL NOBODY'S DAT COMFORTABLE ON A SCOOTER EITHER .. IF ONE REALLY WANTS COMFORT THEN ELECTRIC CARS ELECTRIC MOTORBIKES ARE ALREADY THERE, WELL EITHER ONE OF THESE 2. IF SCOOTERS ARE DAT COMFORTABLE THEN NO NEED FOR ELECTRIC MOTORBIKES TO EXIST REALLY SINCE ELECTRIC CYCLES CAN DO THE JOB PRETTY WELL .... PRACTICALLY SPEAKING.

[@automotiveterritory]

There is a certain gradation to comfort. There are bikes and there are scooters, just like there is Nissan Leaf and Tesla Model S. These are just options but every person gets to decide, which one of these options is more suitable.

[@barbarosugur]

Ridiculously expensive!

Some of them are affordable, some of them are expensive but I wouldn't say that any of these are "ridiculously expensive"...

[@michaeldodge]

Automotive Territory: Trending News & Car Reviews For good sake buddy, with that amount of money i can buy around three gas bikes or and that case of the $8000 bike, a second hand Yamaha R1.

[@automotiveterritory]

Let's please not turn it into the gas vs electric argument. There are a lot of things that we can do for $8k. And why are you comparing new products to the second-hand ones?

[@michaeldodge]

Automotive Territory: Trending News & Car Reviews Gas bikes are so cheap than electric. No more to say.

[@automotiveterritory]

Does it make them better than new electric ones? And if they are so good, why do they drop in price so fast?

[@darringoodbrand6603]

They need to make them less expensive Think the motorcycle you could buy for $8000 if they want people to change to electric take the price down

[@automotiveterritory]

I haven't done any research in the gas scooter market in a while but I think that these electric vehicles are reasonably priced. You also have to take into consideration the fact that the running costs are significantly lower.

[@shivanshsingh8331]

Why do they all have look this weird the only one I liked a bit was Fonz. Here in India we have Hero Photon/Optima and it looks much better than any of these. Why can't these emakers just think like Tesla, smart and still attractive.

[@automotiveterritory]

I personally think that these scooters cover different segments of the market - some of them have a futuristic, while some of them have a classic design features.

[@shivanshsingh8331]

Automotive Territory: Trending News & Car Reviews Really! Futuristic! Being different doesn't mean being futuristic. Many of those have lean bodies to maintain equilibrium with underpowered motors and batteries. I don't know about your country but in my country an electric scooter which looks more like Vespa or Honda Activa will receive more appreciation than some futuristic yet ugly looking out of some low budget sci fi movie vehicle. And I accept that a few are good if they're called mopeds not scooters. I think design aesthetics change from country to country for Indonesian scooter_moped crossovers didn't get accepted in India except for one model; Philippino trolly vehicles will be target of ROFLing in India just like Indian Autos are laughed upon in Europe and North America. Designs also arise from needs, maybe some country needs such designs, lol.

[@automotiveterritory]

Your comment is a classic example of the saying that laughing at something you don't understand is a form of bad tone. You are trying to elevate yourself or your country above the others. But in reality here is how this looks - the companies do their research and look for feedback on their products. There is no 100% guarantee that everyone will like their scooters but at the same time, your point of view is just 1 out of a billion and your message doesn't represent the voice of the majority, so I just wish that manufacturers from India come up with something that suits your taste.

As usual, toys for wealthy people ! *Unreasonably High Street Prices !* These bikes will not be adopted en masse until the street price comes in at a reasonable level most peoplke can afford ! *(Circa $990.00)*

[@automotiveterritory]

Welcome to my channel. Thing is that these scooters are already being adopted by masses. The price is indeed higher than the gasoline models, but in the world where a pair of decent tennis shoes costs $50-100, you cannot expect that a reliable, quality made vehicle will cost $1,000. Bicycles without any motors cost more.

[@brianchamberlin6724]

You can get Chinese motor scooters with engines for 1000 dollars. Charging 6,000,7,000 dollars is extortionate. Ridiculous.
