Most scooters available on the market today are under one thousand dollars. Some of the higher-end models can cost nearly ten thousand dollars. For this reason, it’s important to decide on a budget and only buy a scooter if it meets your requirements. The Unagi Scooter is a perfect example of a mid-range scooter that’s affordable and delivers the performance expected of it.
There are several benefits of Unagi electric scooters. To begin with, if you ever need to move the scooter during a ride, it’s easily collapsible for storage. This is great when packing in tight places or transporting it to the scooter rally.
Like most scooters, the Unagi e500 has a fiberglass reinforced plastic Unagi deck and an aluminum frame. The wheelbase is measured in terms of three figures. The higher the number, the faster the scooter’s maximum speed will be. Although some models of Unagi scooters do have higher top speeds, they are fitted with lower kicking values.
Since the Unagi electric scooter uses a lithium polymer (or LiPo) battery rather than a nickel-metal hydride (NiCad) battery as some other models use, the newer technology requires a battery that is a lot smaller than normal LiPo batteries. Because of this smaller size, a major advantage of the Unagi electric scooters is the weight of the batteries. The LiPo batteries can be placed in the scooter’s smallest port instead of being forced into a large casing to look like a standard-sized battery. As a result, the scooters weigh a lot less.
In comparison to other models of electric scooters, the Unagi model one has the lowest weight capacity. This allows the rider to climb hills easier. The larger tires allow the Unagi model one to cover longer distances. Although the Unagi model one does not have the highest maximum speed, the speed difference can be explained by the difference in weight capacity between the scooter’s tires.
Although the Unagi model one electric scooter does have a smaller battery than most other models, the rechargeable batteries in the scooters can offer an extended riding range. Rechargeable batteries can offer up to two hours of ride time on a single charge. Some riders will purchase additional batteries for their electric scooters to extend their riding range. Some consumers who enjoy taking long rides on the e-scooters will consider purchasing a sidecar kit to attach to the scooter to give the rider a complete rider experience.
