Electric scooter, Adventures of Scooterboy!

Riding my EVT4000e fully electric scooter I ride from my home to town for a morning coffee. Shot on Saltspring Island, B.C. Canada.

This bike was definitely in the beta stages of emachines and I take in consideration the hilly landscape of where I live in how long the batteries lasted. In the city on more level terrain I would imagine a very long life per battery set. I was getting about a year and a half of daily use per battery set. I averaged about 1,000 km/per year as well.

Thanks Prisonson, I couldn't have said it better myself. For those who enjoy the open air, the smell of the road and seeing things at a slower pace (something we all should try now and then) this scooter is for you. I had fun. All that matters.

Weak. What is that? Like .5 HP?

Not that I am making fun, but I am curious why people want such poor acceleration.

[gooseberry123]

mmmm maybe you don't get it. Speed is not the issue...it is a 'do-no-harm' kinda ride. What you loose in acceleration you gain in the silence. A smooth quiet ride in the country. No exhaust, no gas! Just humming along and listening to the birds. That said, I also have a gas scooter that zips along at about 75 kms if I want a loud bumpy ride in the country.

30 or 40 kmh??

[gooseberry123]

30, 40 and sometimes around 60 on the flats.

dude its a cool scooter,,,,im just sayin for that price you could easily get up to 40 mph,,,mine dose,,,,600 dollars

Durability is what I question about these scooters, how long does the battery last over a period of time and how many miles have you put on it?

[nhralph]

Not bad. I can understand having a nice quiet ride. As long as it has enough juice to get you to where you're going and back again.

Very nice buddy. I've got one aswell and it costs me £2105.95 which is $3445.25 and it goes 50 km/h and runs for 50 miles. What do you think about it?

[N41J4]

@stevenherbert1000 no

Man, that's a long way to go for a coffee!

Pretty cool though. Haters gonna hate, but I like how torquey it seems to be off the line (even if it runs out of puff at 30mph), and how quiet it is even up to 50mph - or keeping pace with that noisy pickup! Certainly a lot quicker than even a good cyclist, or lower tuned 50cc gas scooters.

Boo at the people overtaking you on double centre lines whilst you're already busting through the 50km/h limit, too!
