Simple Dot One Electric Scooter: Details
As per the official details, the new e-scooter from Simple will be an affordable version of the Simple One. Its design will be more or less the same as the One e-scooter. But the major difference will be in terms of battery capacity & features. The upcoming e-scooter will use a smaller 3.7-kWh battery pack. This battery pack will have an IDC-claimed maximum riding range of 160 km. Also, it might miss out on a few features that the One scooter gets.
Mind you, Simple Energy has consistently received questions & doubts from buyers. Only a handful of Simple One e-scooters have been delivered. Despite having a backlog of pending deliveries, the new reports are suggesting that Simple is asking customers to withdraw their bookings. However, this image might change if Simple launches this affordable e-scooter. It is said that this new e-scooter will be priced below Rs 1 lakh. Its main rivals will be the Ather 450S & the Ola S1 X.
Verdict
The new Dot one e-scooter will not just be an affordable scooter but it is expected to revive the fate of Simple Energy's future. Being constantly critisized for not fulfiling the promises about the One e-scooter, the Dot-one might change the game for the brand in India.
