This makes it ideal for your day-to-day office commutes or even your grocery runs. Most importantly, the charging time remains similar to the 2.2kWh variant. It can go from 0-80% in 2 hours and 45 minutes.
Mechanically, the scooter remains the same, braking duties are handled by a 220mm disc up front and a 130mm drum at the back.
