For USD 1400 you also get a good E-scooter from Taiwan. I got mine here in Germany for that price. It's far better than an E-bike.


I think the scooter is going to be the winner in the U.S. People not used to biking are averse to being unable to sit and have both feet solidly on the ground at a stop.

And it will also be a "cargo" scooter because carrying things.


Just that the e-scooter batteries last much shorter than the e-bike batteries. And they won't work in colder temperatures.

Typically 2 years only. E-bike batteries last much longer.


Why's that? I have no experience here so I'm confused as to why the batteries would be different. Is it a size thing? Or are they just different tech all together?


I'm not sure why that would be.

Why? Not doubting you, but would love to hear more.
