Okai Electric Vehicles

E-scooters have become the preferred mode of transportation for urban micro-mobility in most of the European cities. Even if it is the micro-mobility solution, anyone would want an e-scooter to last at least 40 km on a single charge so that they are not worried about draining the battery before they get out of the house. The range of a good e-scooter varies from 40-60 km, but it is the promise made by the e-scooter manufacturers when it is used optimally. Have a look at the five tips to increase the range of an e-scooter. Drive at Optimum Speed         Drive-in an eco-mode. Every manufacturer in the automotive industry tells you to do that to improve fuel efficiency. The same happens with e-scooters. If you drive your e-scooter at the maximum speed, the battery drains faster compared to driving at the optimum speed. You can refer to your e-scooter manufacturer’s guide to find the speed in eco-mode. Reduce the unnecessary battery consumption   Advanced e-scooters come with a r

On June 14, 2019, a regulation on the use of light electric vehicles on public roads was published in Germany’s Federal Law Gazette, which legalised light electric vehicles on German roads. Furthermore, a 50-page ordinance by the Federal Ministry of Transport suggested the rules for riding e-scooters in Germany .

In addition, there are other regulations, such as a light electric vehicle having a continuous rated power of no more than 500 watts, or no more than 1400 watts if at least 60% of the power is used for self-balancing. Therefore, if an electric scooter does not meet those criteria stipulated by the ordinance, it will not be considered legal.   Rules for Ridin
