Electric Scooter Range: Everything You Need to Know

Understanding Your Electric Scooter's Range

Range is the #1 criterion when buying an electric scooter. But what does it really depend on?

Factors That Affect Range

• Battery Capacity : measured in Wh (Watt-hours). The higher, the greater the range.
• Rider Weight : a 90 kg rider will consume 20-30% more than a 60 kg rider.
• Terrain : hills and wind significantly reduce range.
• Riding Mode : eco mode can double range compared to sport mode.
• Temperature : cold weather reduces battery performance.

Range by Price Range

Entry Level (250-400 Wh) : 20-30 km. Mid Range (400-750 Wh) : 30-50 km. High End (750 Wh+) : 50-120 km.

5 Tips to Optimise Range

1. Use eco mode on flat terrain
2. Check tyre pressure regularly
3. Avoid sudden acceleration
4. Charge between 20% and 80% to preserve battery life
5. Store your scooter at room temperature
