Features of Xiaomi electric scooters
The most important aspects that differentiate electric scooters are the following:
Range
This depends largely on the power and battery capacity, and it can range from around 20 km to more than 40 km. This greatly defines ease of use, since the greater the range, the fewer times you need to recharge it. It also helps extend battery life, since lithium batteries typically have a lifespan of around 500 charge cycles. In Xiaomi scooters, range is the biggest difference between basic models and pro models.
Motor power
Although the speed limit for electric scooters in Spain is 25 km/h, motor power greatly influences performance when riding uphill. It is important to consider the type of city you live in when choosing the power of your scooter.
Riding stability
This is determined by the scooter’s weight, wheel size, and whether it has suspension. In the case of Xiaomi electric scooters, they are not large or heavy, making them very portable and easy to carry. On the other hand, you may feel some vibrations when riding them on uneven surfaces.
