Good Day everyone! Today I am reviewing the 2021 Emove Touring electric scooter!
Review
So in February/March I was able to obtain a used Emove Touring for a whopping price! I won’t discuss the exact details but I paid less for this then I did for my Turboant!
Upon buying this scooter I was informed by my scooter mentor (yes my very own scooter tutor haha) that for my weight ~240lbs I should expect about 20miles. And based on other reviews I had read previously I was expecting 25mph max.
Let me say that my first initial rides I was a bit weary. This electric scooter has dual suspension but smaller 8inch tires that worried me a little bit. So although the ride was smooth I was pretty nervous going over speedbumps and over grass and back onto curbs. But now after riding it for more then 70 miles total I really am starting to enjoy and appreciate this scooter. Its not too heavy to carry for a commuter scooter, and I’m able to lead the way on smaller rides with friends or keep a closer pace with faster riders on group rides! No longer being left in the dust! lol.
This scooter easily hits 25mph on flat road with my 240lbs on it. As for distance, I have completed a 18 mile round trip ride on it and had just went down to 1 battery bar left on the screen when I finished.
Pros & Cons
Pros: Fast acceleration! If your not looking to challenge cars for speed, this scooter has fast acceleration to 25pmh max.
Not heavy to carry. You can carry it one handed as its 40lbs. There are lighter scooters but they won’t provide the max speed or acceleration.
Cons: For the price point I dont see any other then the 8inch tires. I’m a pretty conservative rider, don’t jump curbs, don’t really go off-roading other then little bit in grass, but still wish it had 10 inch tires. If you are riding at night, look to get more lights for visibility.
Who is this scooter for?
If you already had an entry level scooter experience then this is a worthy upgrade if you find a great deal on a used one. If you already have a scooter that goes 20mph and want more speed or only interested in buying brand new then i’d say skip it as although it does ride well, the 25mph max speed still may leave you wanting more speed & power. I myself am looking for something that can go 30-35 mph now. And I ain’t no speed demon! This scooter is for riders that wanna go for a nice 15-20mile “tour” regardless of their weight.
