Realistic Range Test - NIU NQi Sport

[@hughjanus7354]

That kite dropping its prey moment at 2:15 was epic.

[@managaniwth]

that's a proper range test. thanks for the info so you have the 60V29Ah battery (that gives 1.74 kWh). therefore the consumption is approximately 3.5kWh/100km. nice to know

[@captainflatspot]

Thanks. Was fun to do this test. Yea that was the battery this one has.

[@johnnyrosenberg8674]

I always thought my electric moped (other brand, not a NIU) was very efficient, because I hade no problem reaching 55 km in decent weather at full speed at 28 Ah, 60 V (1680 Wh). According to the label of the battery it's 60 V 28 Ah, but when I recently opened it I realized that it's actually one extra cell i series and one extra in parallel, that is 17 × 11 (I assumed 16 × 10) Samsung 29E cells, which adds up to 31 Ah, or 1945 Wh (min 2,75 × 11 = 30,25 Ah, typ 2,85 × 11 = 31,35 Ah or 2,85 × 11 × 3,65 × 17 = 1945 Wh). So with that in mind I realize that its effiency is just about the same as for most other electric mopeds.

[@jarikinnunen1718]

My NIU M+ SPORT have 48 V, 31 Ah, 1488 Wh battery. Nominal power 1200 W. With high speed, maybe 40 - 50 km and with half speed 60 - 70 km. Calculator gave half of energy consumption, if speed reduced 45 to 35 km/h.

Thank you very much for your great range test. It was really fun to watch 😊

[@captainflatspot]

Glad you liked it 😁👍 actually thinking of doing another one now when its winter and snow here in Sweden. Can be very different results I guess 😅

[@denniskong7185]

13:07 I must be tripping... this man does not care about the season

🤣 very true 👍

Very normal in Scandinavia Crazy folk

[@johnnyrosenberg8674]

I don't know, but I ride all year. There are a few days every year when I take the bus to work, usually because of snow, but when the winter tyres are mounted, I'm back riding again.

[@captainflatspot]

Hehe Yea I ride all year around too. But I think they meant the guy ski ing 🤣

[@r4yfoong190]

Based on your opinion, do you think the bike handles well with 2 seater (with passenger). Comfortable for the passenger ? Good enough seat room ?

[@captainflatspot]

yea I gotta say it handles 2 people very good. I had my girlfriend ride it so I could sit behind and try it out. Worked good for what it is 👍

[@CoasterRob]

I love these I just hate the fact they're only charged via wall socket they need to do fast charging

[@captainflatspot]

Yea, I charge mine overnight so its not really a problem for me. And I only have to do it once or twice every week I'm using it. But I can understand that faster charging would be nice if riding longer distances and need to charge every day.

[@tedpal5098]

🤣🤣🤣 You made him dop his dinner. EVs make city or town commuting fun 👍🏾🏁✌🏾

[@captainflatspot]

Indeed I did 🤣 Yea its very handy to do some small shopping with. I have saved a lot of money getting rid of my car and using this instead every day.

[@StriziMgR]

Super interesting video!

[@captainflatspot]

Thanks mate 👍

[@cryptsub]

Great video! This is the two battery version?

[@captainflatspot]

Thanks. No this is the 2020 version with one battery (29Ah)

[@denbolie]

How much kilometerd did you have on the counter when you started with this test? Because that also has an impact on the batteryforce

[@johnmelnik]

Do you have custom controller or does the limiter allow higher speeds than 45km/h?

[@captainflatspot]

I'm having stock controller. It allows it to go between 48-50km/h full throttle. And sadly it autobrakes going downhill and speed goes over that. Maybe you can get it to roll in 55 if you let go of the throttle.

[@venezuela-y9d]

hello men how you doing. I recently bought nqi sport is really nice, today first time I bringing to the work. around 17 km. I spend until 74% but I turn it on later and shows me now 84% . why that's. happen to you too?

[@venezuela-y9d]

also say 68 km available. is that true or something is failing?

[@venezuela-y9d]

because it's suppose to have 60 km range max hehe maybe because I'm low weigh 😂

[@captainflatspot]

Hello. Maybe the weather got warmer during the day and therefore it gets more power from the battery. If its cold the battery will perform worse.

[@hansmariustorgersen3218]

I'm considering getting one of these.. What would you estimate the range to be at constant full speed? I have a 36km mostly flat round trip on country roads that I would like to be able to ride at constant full speed 😊

[@captainflatspot]

In this video I got 51km in mode 3 (the fastest). I think at Winter the range would be about 40km depending on how cold it is.

[@hansmariustorgersen3218]

@@captainflatspotThanks 😊 Was this constant 45km/h though, looked like it involved some city driving at slower speeds?

[@captainflatspot]

Yea pretty much. Only did a short run through a small city.

[@hansmariustorgersen3218]

@@captainflatspot Cool, thanks 👍😊

[@jurnieuwenhuizen391]

You can also get the Nqi long range

[@joakimdam9723]

How much is your weight, and how much less would it go in winter?

[@captainflatspot]

I weight 80kg. I think it would go about 10km less in the winter. I didn't tried the range, but that is what I would guess anyway.

[@joakimdam9723]

@@captainflatspot cool thanks. What did you pay for it? Do you protect it for rust in any way

[@captainflatspot]

@@joakimdam9723 I got it for 27 000 SEK. Just trying to keep it clean and storing it in a cold garage away from the weathers. But I'm starting to see some rust around some small parts. Like wire holders above the brakes. I guess the Swedish winter was hard for it 😅 And also the paint on the rear swing is not of the best quality. Other than that it looks good.

[@joakimdam9723]

@@captainflatspot cool man, i think it's a bit more expensive here in Denmark. So they use lots of road salt in Sweden at winter? They use lots of salt here in dk at winter

[@captainflatspot]

Yea thats propably the reason. A lot of salt. I bought this moped so I don't have to use my Yamaha FS1 in the winter 😅 getting rusty soo fast

[@orionconstellation2]

Do you have 42a battery

[@venezuela-y9d]

hello, how long with mode 2?

[@captainflatspot]

I havnt really tested that. But I guess it will be about 10 kilometer more range. But Yea that is just a guess

[@jimihendrixx11]

So it seems like its a best fit for small distances in cities/urban not for longer distances regularly

[@captainflatspot]

Yea, exactly.

only a learners license

Depends where you live but in most EU countries it needs moped license.
