Ninebot N Series Electric Scooter

Ninebot has done it again. It has made scooter all-so-classy and upmarket when in reality, in its home country, a luxury car is the mark of success. Not going to lie. I was almost sold.

I was willing to ditch the BMW 2 series for a Ninebot N Series Electric Scooter. I guess it will make an old man like me look cooler? Probably not. But for a person who appreciates all-thing beautiful, transportation included, I like what I see.

In all honestly, there’s nothing extraordinary with the Ninebot N Series Electric Scooter. It just looks sleek. That’s all. It may just make riding scooter cool again since after the original Vespa. Maybe?

Under the hood, the Ninebot N Series Electric Scooter is powered by a Ninebot custom 10-inch brushless motor, which has a rated power of 800W and 1,200W, depending on the model.

Oh yes, it has not one but two N: the N70C and N90. While the rated power is different, both models have a top speed of 47 km/h (29 mph).

Further differences between the two models are the battery and the brakes. For the latter, the N70C is equipped with a front disc and rear drum and the N90 gets an all-around disc.
