escoota - electric scooters for commuters

Is the market ready for electric motorcycles and scooters? Yes it is- now!

Don’t know how to source EC type approved electric scooters?

Read the motorcycle trade press and almost each week there is an article on the "electric and green revolution". Performance and range issues are now firmly in the past and technology has improved significantly.

Why electric? It’s simple and appealing. Cheap to run- no road tax, pressure to "go green", 8p (yes eight pence) to charge from a standard 13amp electric plug point which gives approximately 30 miles travel. That’s the equivalent of nearly 1000 miles per gallon! And of course, there’s no exhaust fumes or CO2 emissions.

Electric motorbikes and scooters are different to their petrol counterparts sold to the recreational two wheel enthusiast. In particular, electric scooters are aimed at a rapidly emerging new market, the commuter who is fed up with the cost of running a car or who has decided not to rely on public transport and is aware of the "green agenda"

Let’s now dispel the myth of "range and speed". Did you know the average commute to work by motorcycle/scooter is less than 9 miles and the time taken is some 22 minutes (Office for National Statistics), that’s an average speed of 24 mph- well within the range and speed of an electric scooter.

Not to mention we have agreed a marketing leading insurance scheme, administered by MCE Insurance. Our unique insurance prices cover rider from 16 to 90 years old in any area of the UK, including London and Northern Ireland.
