GreenEMotor

GreenEMotor in Santa Clara, CA, offers a nice line of electric scooters. They have two different motor sizes: 1600 watt and 2200 watt and two different body styles: motorcycle and Vespa style. The 1600 watt comes with a 48v-26ah battery system, while the 2200 comes with a 60v-26ah battery system.

The scooters have all the usual accessories and also come with a unique high-power mode. At a stop, if you press the small red button on the right handlebar, then your acceleration off the line will be faster and it will use less power. In the high-power mode however, you can only go about 20 mph, so once you get going faster than 10 mph, you push the red lever under your right thumb to switch into the high-speed mode to  proceed to 30+ mph. We tested this feature and it really does make a difference in the acceleration off the line. However, the buttons are a little awkward to operate.

Another difference is that the back brake is a drum instead of a disk brake. With these scooters weighing almost 300 lbs plus the weight of the driver, you definitely want a good brake system to help you stop quickly. While we didn't have any problems stopping the GreenEMotor's scooters, we definitely are more comfortable with disk brakes in both front and back.

The specs they quote are probably a little on the high side, and the bikes are the most expensive in their class, but it is a nicely built bike.
