Robot, I will never buy a bike in your store, as I live in Berlin, Germany. But I very much appreciate your videos and your expertise, which is invaluable.
The same goes for me, from Hamburg, Germany.
You had me in the first half, not gonna lie!
wait what
Imagine the aftermarket parts for this scooter:
-Malossi big-winding Stators
-Polini ESC controller
-Brembo Regenerative Brake Kit
About to buy one and put my own custom 40kw motor batteries and esc 😁
Very nice review Robot! I drove it as well previous week. :)
Great video 😃 almost all areas covered 👏
I have a BMW C Evolution electric scooter and I'm loving it. My big K1600GTL has not moved an inch while the scooter has logged 5100 miles in less than 4 months. It is a maxi scooter and costs double the Vespa but I do get about 100 miles of range and can get up to 85mph. So because it has much better utility, performance between the Zero DS and DSR and built-in Level 2 charging, some level of weather protection and a reverse mode that's easier to access than the Elettrica. Stoplight drag races are easily won by the C Evolution. I would get the Elettricca if I lived in a city. The small form factor makes it better for urban riding and parking. Coffee shop posing is a Vespa forte.
Hey, great video. What was the conference/show you mentioned where you saw the scooters with 1 battery inside? Thanks!
Thanks for the review Electric Vespa tuning time😈🤓
Great review! Thank you! How about the new Vespa electric 70, which is more powerful? The best vehicle if you live in a city / urban environment.
Great review Robot! :)
Hello, excellent video ... a query that bikes are the ones that are seen at the beginning of the background video? the yellow and the black. Thank you
Great information my friend! Does this scooter have enough space to accomodate a second rider in the back? I own 4 e-bikes that will go max 23 MPH and i am tempted to purchase a Vespa!
Yes it does. It's the same size as the sprint/primavera. It will be a bit more cramped than the 300, but I imagine you won't be going on long treks with a passenger on an electric scooter. Though a bit under powered for the size and weight, it's probably one of the more luxurious E-Scooters out there!
Interesting choice for tyres, the Pirelli Angel is rarely seen on a scooter compared to CityGrip
great and detailed review, thank you! 😊
What is the life of these batteries and how much do they cost to replace? What is the life of the motor and how much is it to replace the motor? Is there any maintenance for the electric motor ?
With rolling blackouts in California I sure don't What to overload the electrical grid anymore then it is.
Thanks for the review👍
excellent review. Thanks !
Elettrica,i like the sound of that,its glam meets metal.
1:56 BMW 2002 followed by a lowered bay window VW bus. Later on a 80s Ford Fairmont and Accord hatchback. Please more local test rides!
I have reverse on my electric scooter (a Chinese one called UGBEST Romex) and I wouldn't want one without it. I use it every day. I park my scooter in a bicycle room, and it's a steep slope to the door. I go reverse up that slope and park as close to the door as possible because there are many bicycles inside and basically no place else to park the scooter. Without the reverse mode it would be very hard to push it up that slope and going forwards isn't much of an option either. So, at least I appreciate the reverse mode. And mine does not beep! :)
An on coming BMW 2002 at 1:54 .in great shape followed by a VW Micro Bus.
Southern California I love ye!
20:30 the auxiiary battery, for what i've understood, its used to power the screen and other electronics and its charged with a dynamo; if it runs out of power the vespa wont start, even if the main battery is full.
I love everything about it except two (2) things - it doesn't have enough Speed (needs to go at least 60 MPH), and not enough range. I'm going for the Zero Electric Motorcycle. Thanks for the great review.
Has to be detuned. I have a similar looking E-Scooter with only a 500w motor not 4000W and it does almost the same speed of 38 km/hr.
"I like this EV except it doesn't go fast enough and doesn't go far enough"
Yep pretty much.
Thanks for taking it up a steep hill! You'd be surprised how many people don't cover that.
Splendid !!!!
Is the battery attached to the frame below the pet carrier? Or is it attached to the swing arm?
I'll definitely be sending you money soon to hold mine🤓😀
Hopefully they release one day a 150 equivalent, or even better, a 300 equivalent. A 50 equivalent for the price of a gas 300 just seems pointless. Good review though!
Piaggio back in November 2019 released a new version of the Elettrica with a top speed of 70 km/h (43 mph). That makes it a lot safer to drive on many of the wider main streets in the USA.
@@Sacto1654 is it for sale in the USA ? is it also a Primavera model ?
the best enviroment for this vespa are busy european cities with narrow streets and lot of traffic, i'm waiting my vespa elettrica to be delivered and i'm very happy, but if i lived in american suburb (wich implies long trips in arterial roads) i would not recomend it.
thanks of this ride I know that your area is the nicest place to live.
what is the name of the neighborhood ?
@@andyn4797 Qom
Would love a electric scooter with power of bv350 here in Australia want to ride must have motorcycle license, and no reduction in registration charges
Amazing!!!! ☺️☺️
Thank you!! 😁
I like a lot that you can remove the underseat storage and wash it! Those aren't air tight you know and when the trees and flowers bloom there will be a lot of pollen inside.. It was not nice when I had a scooter at the age of 15.
Awesome!
Great video , Very Nice . I Love It
Glad you enjoyed it
I will buy one once they improve it.
I'm not looking for 80 MPH, but a true 50 MPH would be great. That would allow me to keep up with traffic on 45 MPH posted roads. I'd pay $7,500 for that, but not for 30 MPH. That would be pretty much a hazard where I live.
go for NIU GT scooter.. I tested it .. it goes 78 kmh in worst conditions full trhrottle 80 km range and more. Price is about 4500 euro, but Its the last thing u buy for going around the city
Vespa now do a 70kmh (43mph) version of the Elettrica.
I'm not looking for 50 mph, I'm looking for 30 mph. see?
hello mr robot never see you do maintnance to electric scooters??is that also coming in your videos in 2024 maybe??regards from the netherlands
Good idea to use a carpet sample for a pad to put the kickstand on.
We try to have one for every bike in our showroom. At least an attempt to preserve our nice floor!
@@VespaMotorsport Spot on!!...Gonna copy the idea now.
Waiting on that Elettrica test ride video footage from Tijuana. 😂
Long live Mexico 💪
Top Scooter , Very Good
Thanks ✌️
Mallossi please make a tune up kit for this!
Us electric tuners have our own ESC,s and Motors now we been waiting 15 years for this platform and chassis this Original motorcycle tuner of 40 year's about to shock the world with my 40kw! electronic propulsion system for this jewel 🤓
Here comes a custom 40kw electric Gp Circuit Scooter first off straight from Los Angeles whoa I been waiting on this wish Yamaha Aerox Valentino Rossi Edition made one for the US🤐
This is my dream electric platform time to pull that shamelessly weak motor out and put my 40kw custom electric Race motor in that jewel it has the same gearing and transmission as the regular 50cc that we stroke out to 100cc and 38bhp malossi and many other have full tuning and aftermarket parts for this jewel shit yeah time to build a Harley Davidson killer silently😈😈😈😈🤓
Vespa Electric scooters which areas available in India plz inform me details
شكرا شكرا . ايطا ليا
12:10 - I`m sorry in this particulary place what the STOP is for ?
that stop at 4:14 was super clean.
We have 230 volts in Europe, not 220 (I think Russia has 220 though, not sure). My country switched from 220 to 230 in 1989, that is thirty years ago, and people still say 220, which annoys me a little… 😄
I want to buy my first vespa either electria or gts. Which one is a good first vespa? Are they easy to balance on stops
Very easy to balance with the low center of gravity, especially the smaller 150s and the Electtrica. Have you considered the Sprint or Primavera 150? That would be my first recommendation, unless you are dead set on electric.
@@VespaMotorsport not yet thanks. Looks like the primavera 150 is nice is the 300 easy also. Wish the electric has the same power as a 150
Ariel N my first was a 150; keep in mind the gross weight. Mine's about 250 lbs and it can be a handful if it starts to tip over and there' no way I could lift the back, but I am not a weight lifter either
@@danwebster5439 thanks
Can you disconnect the speed limiter, to get more speed. With 3.5 kilowatts and a peak of 5 kilowatts surely can give you a hell more power than 31 mph.
I have a 500w 170lb scooter that almost does the same speed , so there must be a trick.
Need more for tech people. The Voltage , the AH of the battery, the weight are they samsung cells or from China? Thanks for letting us know its wattage.
4.2kwh for the battery, LG Chem. Not sure on AH, or voltage, but it’s completely separated from the 12v system that runs the dash, lights etc.
Motor is 4kw peak (for 30 seconds at a time), then 3.5kw continuous for the 28mph version, and 3.6kw continuous for the 43mph version.
Are you guys getting any Royal alloy 300cc scooters anytime soon?
Don't think they're in the US yet, but we'll be sure to review one as soon as we can.
1:56 nice BMW
Dude we modify those to run on Gp Circuit tracks using 2stroke Big Bore kits making above 35bhp @100mph! They are designed and handle just like Gp bikes when you add the aftermarket suspension and brakes that's made by Gp manufacturers in Italy just like NASCAR drivers practice on shifter karts Gp rider's like Doctor Valentino Rossi practice on tuned 2 stroke Gp Circuit Scooter's nevertheless after building motorcycles All my life from minibikes to the Mighty Hayabusas I'm 50 now and the future has arrived now that I have been building electric Gp scooter for the last 15 years straight I'm do Happy that Piaggio sent this jewel to the USA for me to put my own prototype 5lb 40kw!!! Outrunner on😉🤓
Horsepower, according to Wikipedia:
”Two common definitions being used today are the mechanical horsepower (or imperial horsepower), which is about 745.7 watts, and the metric horsepower, which is approximately 735.5 watts.”
That means that 4kW is either 5.44 or 5.36 horse-powers. Is one of these what is referred to in this video as ”American horse-powers”?
Yes, the U.K. and America use imperial HP - whereas Europe uses PS.
i really can't find the spare plug part which you put on top of the outletplug....anyone?!
i have been driving a Honda Metropolitan for 10 years, cops told me i dont need a M1. im in Riverside CA.
You don't they don't bother 50cc Scooter's just have a regular class c driver's license my first scooter was a 1984 Honda Aero I'm definitely buying this one to tune 40kw!!! 100mph+ all malossi racing suspension and gearing😉
Tried to de restrict it yet? I know a good electritian! Just in case!
You don't need an electritian for that just a computer with the right software and interface.
Zero Cool whatever! That intention was to find out if they de restrict it yet! If they call a nasa engineer i dont care how they do it
Vespa now offer a 70kmh version of this - 43mph I think that translates to
What can this do that a boosted board or an advanced stand-up e scooter can't?
Carry stuff, seat down on a padded seat with suspension ,double ride ,not care about drainage grates or potholes wiping you out.
Damn, with those indicators (I know, some US regulation) makes the bike look so sad.
Don`t you mean the reflectors on the mudguard and side panels?
Can you charge this at any EV charging station? Thanks.
People make adaptors that allow you to use standard EV chargers.
I'm a huge fan of your videos and reviews, but the price of this scooter is a joke that only hits up to 31mph. For that, this scooter should be priced at $2,500
Newer technology always costs a premium, but overtime this reduces down. Some people are happy to pay extra to be at the cutting edge of technology.
Look at the first Tesla Roadster, vs the cost of the new model 3.
Look at the price of the first iPad, vs the cheapest iPad you can buy now.
It is available in Nepal also??? I also want 2 buy this 1
they're not available for 3rd world country.
Please let there be a derestriction for this bike.
Can you tell me, are the batteries removable?
No, they are not. They are fixed in place.
The NIU scooters do have removable batteries (one under the floor and one under the seat). This makes the floor higher which isn’t as comfortable, and they also don’t have storage space, whereas the Vespa has a nice under seat compartment - so there’s pros and cons!
Sad, hope it will be better in time. 😳
Why do u call it 2020 if we are in 2019?
Order it now, you might get it in 6 months. By the time most scooter shops get significant inventory, it'll be 2020. Inventory for scooters is very different than cars. Some scooter shops currently have brand new '16 and '17 bikes for sale. Car dealerships can move old inventory easier by reducing prices. The margins are so small on scooters, it's not worth it to sell them at a huge discount.
I’m like 5 feet tall.... do you think that I can handle this scooter?
Might be on the tall side, but we offer a few options to lower the scooter slightly. Best to take a look I n person and decide what fits best. Thanks!
230 volts is the European standard since at least 1989, not 220. I think that Russia still has 220 volts though.
Gas scooters can do 37 mph from the factory. This needs to do the same. 22 mph in eco mode is crazy.
Eco mode is purely there so they can quote a higher “range” figure. I doubt anyone will actually use that mode in practice.
does it have a GPS built-in?
No. You can see where you parked it, and where you’ve ridden, but you can’t track it if it’s stolen while the scooter is turned off.
!@#$ CA's DMV for making this scoter M1 needed.
thats why i drive a Honda Metropoltan 49 cc all i need is a class c to drive
31mph is a joke. Bring in Gogoro from Taiwan and I'll buy one today.
Vladimir Harabor I got a gogoro, it’s awesome!
Invasion where you got it from? I have been looking for month, please tell me. I would love to get the S1 but at this time of not being able to even smell a Gogoro I will take anyone.
Cheers
@@invasion1824 Are you Taiwanese or live in Taiwan? Because afaik you can't get a Gogoro anywhere outside of Taiwan - except for those ride sharing programs. please let us know.
Paulo Alexandre oh, I live in Taiwan. 👍 my gogoro just played happy birthday for me this morning when I switched it on!
Joke or not, in many countries that's the fastest you're allowed to go on two wheels (except bicycle) without a motorcycle driving license. In my country it's actually 45 km/h (divide by 1.609 for mph) and the vehicle type is called Moped Class 1. There's also something called Moped Class 2 here, which are limited to 25 km/h, but you are allowed to ride them on bicycle lanes.
it sound like the jetsons cartoon
i think you're traveling on a magnet wave because it looks on the screen of the vespa,
Knowing Vespa they will charge 1/2 the price of a Zero motorcycle for 1/4 the performance.
freeway legal?
Far from it! Tops out around 30-35-mph unfortunately.
I was expecting more... That's too bad, I was hopeful. Dam, I just heard the price in the Video... No way...
Of course he'll never say anything that would discourage potential buyer to come check it out in their store. It's why reviews from dealers are never good just bias, Bottom line DON'T BUY 7K scooter that goes only 40 mph regardless of the name of the Brand.
In a lot of countries, the government pay some money towards the vehicle as it’s seen as eco friendly.
Where would Tesla be if their cars wouldn't go faster than 40?
even the zero electric bikes go fast haha
As he said in the video, it's intended for a market with certain regulations. There's no similar market for cars, so the question is irrelevant. And stupid, if you ask me, but I guess you didn't, so maybe it's a good question after all, then…
The market for this is purely city based. It’s targeting customers who want more than electric bicycle has to offer. In congested cities, top speed is mostly irrelevant - especially in places where filtering is legal.
It’s certainly not as silent as they advertised. That’s the only feature I cared about. Gas engines sound better than that high pitch whine.
What price in Indian rupee
i probably wont buy that version but i make harley reviews, i would be glad if you guys gave me a chance to check me out
Great review. Far too slow, can’t see that catching on particularly in the uk
It can be driven on a car licence in England though, and without L plates - which makes it tempting... but I guess only for city riding
My opinion is, Vespa is producing this scooter only for the brand image.
In a lot of countries, there are government grants that pay a percentage towards this scooter, so the scooter will sell well.
My opinion Vespa is targeting a certain political demographics, if you buy an electric scooter Vespa donates money to liberal Democrat organizations. Companies need to keep their political affiliations to themselves.
yes a woke one 🙄👎
The big question is: is it tunable? No way im buying a 30mph scooter.. a 50mph would work
A 70kmh version (43mph) is now available, but ultimately this is an inner city scooter
Is. It. Suitable. For. A. Tall. Guy. ....like. 6. Feet. Or. More. .....!!! ???
I honestly think 30mph is kinda disappointing. You might as well just buy an ebike and you wouldn't need an M1 license even in California. They should have made it more powerful. Anyone looking for a Vespa probably already has a motorcycle license.
Make Jackson Brown ride one, he thinks he is the steward of our planet.
You need a special license for a Vespa but you can go buy a Lamborghini or a long RV without even a road test.
Too expensive for it's speed, or lack thereof.
I've just watched a video on the Zero motorcycle, now this one on the Vespa equivalent. Our governments are telling us that we need to drastically reduce our carbon foot print for future generations and our country appears to be doing its bit, but Trump in the States thinks its all bollocks and it's China that's to blame. That's another story.
I can only see this scooter as a rental within a city much like electric bikes. The price is insane as is the range. No one mentions just how much pollution is emitted into the atmosphere just to make this battery which is probably made in China hence the reason that they get the blame for polluting our world.
If electric bikes and scooters are our future, then the "Mad Max" scenario is for real.
I didn't realise how screwed up your road system is over there, so many "Stop" signs it would drive me insane. Those hills are like the "Streets of San Francisco" series from the 70's. :)
I will pay no more than $3000 for this thing.
Don't buy it, then. Problem solved.
@@johnnyrosenberg9522 Nope. I'm just saying it is overpriced as hell.
Drumbrakes on a $7500 bike UNACCEPTABLE!!!!!!
Well it regenerates so might not need as powerful brakes..
@@K1989L I know but still...
It’s got 2 rear brakes (drum plus the electric motor regen), and the weight is towards the rear so the braking is actually really good.
Drum brakes offer advantages over disc brakes. They stay a lot cleaner, and they reduce dust around the motor. It’s also extremely rare to get anything stuck between the friction materials (as can sometimes happen with disc brakes).
just get a chines bike.
the ones that start fires?
👎👎👎
To slov👎😉
I'd be better off getting a high quality electric mountainbike for $4k that has a range of 120 miles
No kidding
I’d never buy this overpriced slow Vespa ! Love how it looks but an NIU NQI PRO is not that bad looking… cheaper, longer range and faster !
nope i would be better off just walking my dog,thanks.
