Electric Vespa Clone Unbox & Review: The Aventura X

[@aventura-x]

Great Video! We have fixed the small squeezy noises on all of our Aventuras, no more signal light noises, we have also fixed the side storage pockets. Also it is important to mention that we do offer storage space such as a helmet case, a rear rack and a front rack that can be purchased directly from our website. We also offer a 1 year warranty on our battery, chassis and controller. Aventura-X Electric scooters are assembled in the USA. We also have the 50 miles per hour version and the Aventura-X Sidecar arriving in 2022!

[@evshrug]

40 mph is juuuuuust enough to get around my suburban neighborhood (I understand cars will pass me when I would go uphill). Did the 40 mph version ever get released?

[@aventura-x]

[@amenhotepavoskin1307]

I sold my Vespa-style EMMO e-bike about a month ago, replacing it with an electric push scooter. I liked the e-bike but hardly ever regretted having traded it for the scooter - the latter has a number of very important advantages over the e-bike, at least for me.

[@TheBoardGarage]

Very cool. Great video as always.

[@freshlycharged]

Thanks for tuning in, Mario! Always great to hear from you!

[@joellontoc3231]

It's nice to see another retro Vespa style electric scooter. I've been riding my retro Vespa style electric scooter for 7 years now. My scooter is 72v 3kw with sinewave technology. I recently put in a 72v 30ah Lithium titanate oxide battery in it and am impressed with the quick charging of it and the performance in the cold weather. I would like to get the sidecar for my bike if I don't get that one with the sidecar instead. Great review!

[@freshlycharged]

Seven years! Amazing!

[@joellontoc3231]

@@freshlycharged yes these bikes are great. It still looks and rides like new. I put over 20000 kms on it and never had a problem with it only wear and tear like tires and brake pads and battery pack which will last the rest of my life because it lasts for over 20000 cycles.

[@keithrodan7763]

Thanks Jimmy Chang! Excellent review, makes me want one. The question of how it does on hills is answered in the last minute - "no transition going up a hill, this has a lot of pep". The recent comments from Aventura-X about fixes is reassuring, now how about the headlight - next?

[@aventura-x]

Hello Keith, an Aventura-X Electric performs very well on hills as long as its not above the weight limit of 330 lbs.

[@bonnavideo]

It probably has an ECU battery like the NIU, this is why the alarm works with the batteries removed/unplugged.

[@frog382]

OR... its sentient and in distress

[@dbrowdy]

Love it! I'd get this over a $3k EUC/Scooter any day of the week. I love my sub-$2k EUCs and scooters, but if I'm paying more, I want something that I can take on the street confidently. Interesting to read the comments that there are other comparable (or better) options for cheaper. I wonder how many of them look like they belong on the street, rather than looking like a bicycle with an electric motor strapped on...

[@if_dots]

All of the ones I read in the other comments definitely look like they belong on the street! However there are these weird mandatory dealer fees/etc. inherent to buying those ... it means that e.g. the CSC Monterey (an electric Super Cub basically, and what I'd compare directly to this) costs a little under $3k to the door, instead of the $2200 that is its list price. I'm not sure what fees if any are applicable here, or how realistic the listed range is, but if the list price is /after/ dealer fees/etc./etc. and is just straight out the door - and the listed range is accurate - it could be relatively competitive.

[@dbrowdy]

@@if_dots I looked up some of the other suggestions and none of them had even close to the style of this or the CSC Monterey. People are scoffing and saying "you're paying for style" but what's wrong with paying for something that doesn't look like it was made in my garage?

[@if_dots]

@@dbrowdy What ones did you look up? The Honda Navi, Grom, and Metropolitan are the gas-powered scooters in this range that seem good to me, and they all look good (depending on preference ... I do prefer the metropolitan/this over the other two) and are going to be incredibly reliable. And all of the Niu options look pretty good to me as well - Niu's also a 'trusted brand' in the space, so to speak. ... But this doesn't seem like a terrible option at all. It is a bit unproven, though ... we'll see how that goes when it actually releases (in late April of next year, hopefully).

[@PhiTonics]

[@esk8jaimes]

[@maddmikemu]

The looks and silent ride are what this has going for it. But the rattling and somewhat flimsy plastic breaks the illusion of a silent Vespa. I can imagine the whole thing shattering if it tipped over while parked let alone if it slid out on gravel.

[@aventura-x]

Aventura X is built out of a very durable ABS material, it takes hits much better than what people think :)

[@Andrew-vt4jt]

The plastic is similar to my Yamaha Vino. It's not metal like my Vespa but it's still rigid and durable. I've ridden other scooters that have brittle plastic. This has a more premium feel to it.

[@ewheelsfanclub4027]

Jimmy, what brand is your friends Black Helmut? It is awesome and covers his ears and small visor. RAD.

[@Andrew-vt4jt]

I'm not sure what brand it is. I bought it years ago from a local motorcycle shop. I'll try to find the brand for you.

[@ahsanchoudhury4856]

I test drove one last month and also noticed the squeaky noise. I loved the look and acceleration but the noise was noticeable

[@jackvolta3489]

I love the thing and that color reminds me of a '56' crown vic, ford used the same color on a lot of their classic cars, but if I were to buy one, had have to pick a black one although black might attract the sun more meaning in places like Arizona the sun just might melt the plastic? Anyway great video. 😎👍

[@AndrewSkow1]

6:40 I'd be real careful about advising people to lubricate their brakes. I'd be so careful saying it that my mouth wouldn't open and no sound would be heard.

[@freshlycharged]

Lubricating brake caliper pins is completely safe and recommended for maintenance.

[@josephtaranto5838]

Hey jimmy love your videos 👍 i have actually just bought a Nan robot D6 and I love it , your video on it was the reason I purchased it and couldn’t be happier so thank you 🙏..

each state has it's own law regarding registration, all our scooters come with an MCO. Electric is the better option than gas because it is cheaper and less maintenance, we see a lot of riders selling their gas scooters to purchase an Aventura-X specially lately due to the high gas prices. Our scooters come with a 1 year warranty and we use premium quality lithium ion batteries so we never had a problem with anyone's scooter stopping.
