Piaggio 1 Active
Equivalent to 125 cc, the Piaggio 1 Active takes advantage of its small size and its 10-inch front wheel to sneak around town easily. Strictly urban, this handy scooterproduced in China, is as stable as its size allows.
Its 2 kW/95 Nm motor located in the hub of the rear wheel only allows spinning (in theory) up to 60 km/h. Overlooking its motorcycle-style handlebars, a small color TFT screen contributes to the attractive presentation and displays all the necessary information.
The Piaggio 1 Active starts “hands-free”. Its removable 2.3 kWh battery of capacity (which weighs about fifteen kilos), arranged under the saddle, only leaves room for a jet helmet. It allows 85 kilometers of autonomy in Eco mode, and 63 km in sport mode. Price: 3,299 euros.
LVNENG NCE-S
Good to know before injuring the musculomembranous organ that is the tongue: the brand of this Chinese scooter pronounces Luneng.
To enrich an original and already supplied catalog of 100% electric models, it is launching the NCE-S, a 125 cc equivalent which has a 6600 W Bosch motor and runs up to 90 km/h. His autonomy announced reaches 90 km at maximum speed, thanks to a system combining two small batteries, designed by LG.
The scooter, equipped with CBS coupled braking, comes with a dedicated application allowing geolocation, alarm activation and remote start. In dealership in October 2022, at a price of €6,999.
Horwin SK1
New in the Chinese manufacturer’s range, the SK1 takes up the architecture and design of the 125 equivalent electric SK3. But its motor integrated into the rear wheel is limited to 3 kW peak and 153 Nm of torque, for a maximum speed limited to 45 km/h.
The SK1 offers the choice between two battery capacities: 1.87 or 2.59 kWh, for respective ranges of 71 and 96 kilometres. The Horwin novelty, expected in the fall of 2022 in France, should display a base price of less than 3,000 euros.
Kymco i-One
45 small kilometers per hour at maximum speed, and 46 small kilometers of autonomy in Normal mode; the Kymco i-One, 100% electric, has characteristics of small urban scooter, equivalent to 50 cc.
And for those for whom this autonomy is not enough, it enjoysa removable battery, which can be recharged at home and can therefore be exchanged with a second battery (700 €). The Taiwanese also benefits from a classic charging socket, at the front.
Very compact (1.81 m long) and light (86 kg without battery), it develops up to 3.6 kW and generates a good acceleration over the first meters covered. Pretty pretty, the i-One, displayed from €3,999will put its two small wheels in Kymco dealerships from the start of the 2022 school year.
Mob-ion AM1
It’s rare enough to be specified: the AM1 is a scooter designed and produced in France. Developed by the company Mob-ion, it is a 50 cc equivalent designed in an eco-design approach, with repairability, reconditioning and recycling objectives.
The battery, which arrives from Artigues-près-Bordeaux, in New Aquitaine, allows a minimum of 42 kilometers of autonomy, depending on the version, and can climb up to 195 km. The management electronics arrive from Nantes.
After four years of use or 60,000 km traveled, the brand says it is ready to buy back the AM1 scooter from its owner, at 15% of its purchase price, set at €3,583.
Motor Vision
Behind its reduced roadster look, the Vizion hides a small 3,700 W (50 cc equivalent) electric motor.
The machine does everything like a “real” motorcycle, with a double saddle, rear grab handles and storage in the usual location of the tank. Its maximum autonomy reaches 65 km and its top speed is 45 km/h. Price: €3,199
Zapp i300
Its appearance is breathtaking, its acceleration too: the i300 promises a 0 to 30 mph (48 km/h) in 2.2 seconds and a 0 to 60 mph (96 km/h) in 4.8 seconds!
Zapp, a British brand, unveiled its Z-shaped scooter, equipped with a belt transmission and a motor developing 14 kW (or 19 hp) at peak. It is powered by two small removable batteries 720 Wh capacity (6 kg each), for a range limited to 60 km in Eco mode.
