Design & Style
The scooter has an interesting and slick modern design that will definitely get noticed. It is offered in multiple colour options, including matte black, white, and electric blue. The design is complemented by the LED headlamp which adds to the futuristic aesthetic, while the sharp body lines are sporty.
It is worth noting that this scooter has a fully digital console, a first for any scooter I have seen, while the switchgear is extremely minimal, which I like. The footboard appears large and open, and the under-seat storage is enough for an average helmet or backpack. Fit and finish seems good for a scooter in this price point, and the overall build quality feels solid.

Engine & Performance
This electric scooter uses a 2.5 kW motor that peaks at 4.0 kW, which provides instantaneous torque delivery; one of the most attractive features of EVs. The scooter excels at accelerating from 0-40 km/hr in approximately 4 seconds, which is fast enough for city riding.
The scooter’s top speed of 90 km/h means you aren’t limited to short journeys. Riding through city traffic delivery may be a favorite but you can also ride on the highway, where the scooter performs quite well. The performance is smooth and silent, delivering a premium feeling to the experience.
Handling and Ride Quality
From a ride quality perspective, the scooter is fairly well balanced. It has telescopic front suspension and dual rear shock absorbers that handle uneven road surfaces reasonably well. The 12-inch alloy wheels fitted with tubeless tyres also provide pretty good grip where required – on urban streets.
The upright seating posture is comfortable enough for daily riding, and even when holding a pillion the bike remains stable. The lightweight body is easy to manoeuvre in traffic, and the scooter has a minimum turning radius that allows quick U-turns where needed in crowded areas.
