How far can an electric scooter go on a full charge?

Power train – these are components that push an e-scooter forward. It creates the power from the engine and delivers it to the wheels.

Engine – check the engine power rating. Budget versions consume 200W to 600W while pricier models consume up to 5000W. If you want efficiency, choose low wattage, but for power, high wattage is the best.

Battery – lithium ion batteries are the best options, although they are expensive. They have battery life and are lightweight.

Engine’s Controller – an efficient engine controller accurately controls the power that reaches the e-scooter engine.

Temperature – temperature affects electric scooter battery. Cold weather conditions reduce a scooter’s power range by up to 50%. The battery gets cold, lowering its voltage; thus, producing less energy.

Aerodynamic level – an aerodynamically designed scooter experiences little wind resistance and thus, has a longer range.

Speed – riding at a lower speed prolongs the battery life, increasing the overall range. Select e-scooters with an eco-mode/cruise control feature to automatically extend the range of your electric scooter.

Terrain – you require up to 60 % more power when riding on rough terrain, dirt, or sand than on smooth terrain. This reduces your range.

Relief – riding uphill consumes more power than riding downhill. Uphill rides may reduce the range up to 70%.
