YES !, although more expensive than some electric bicycles, a Sobowo Scooter can carry a rider weighing up to 150 kgs, for distances up to 50 kms. Also, you don’t need to pedal like you do on an electric pedal-assisted bicycle. The only real costs are electricity to recharge your Sobowo electric kick Scooter and the occasional replacement of tyres and brake pads.
So…. how much does it cost to charge and operate an electric Sobowo electric kick Scooter?
The calculations are easy, and the example is made using the peak electricity price in Queensland of $0.33 per kWh. Your rate may/will vary depending on your location
We need to work out the cost of charging a typical Sobowo electric kick Scooter battery.
Sobowo electric kick Scooter batteries are 48V and 12.8 AH capacity, to convert this to watt hours the calculation is 48 × 12.8 = 614 watt hours. You then divide by 1000 to get the kilowatt hours so 614 ÷ 1000 = 0.61 kWh
To work out how much a complete charge will cost, we multiply the battery capacity in kilowatt hours by the electricity rate, 0.61 x 0.33 = $0.2013, or if we round this off it costs just $0.20 to recharge the battery using the peak electricity rate and around $0.11 cents to charge the battery at off-peak rates.
The average range for a Sobowo electric kick Scooter is around 40 km. This means you can travel up to 40 km for around $0.20, or, to break it down even further it will cost you $0.0050325 cents per kilometer to travel on the Sobowo electric kick Scooter….
Travel to the shops and back, riding about 5 kms in distance will only cost 2.5 cents! 20 kms = 10 cents, Pretty cheap!
But cheapness is not what the Sobowo electric kick Scooter is about, riding the Sobowo electric kick Scooter is all about FUN !
If you use solar panels to charge your Sobowo electric kick Scooter then you are riding for FREE.

The main difference between an electric kick scooter and a kick scooter is that an electric kick scooter has a motor and battery, while a kick scooter does not. Here are some more differences:
Power source: As mentioned, an electric kick scooter is powered by a motor and battery, while a kick scooter is powered by the rider's physical effort.
Speed: Electric kick scooters are generally faster than kick scooters because of the motor assistance. Electric kick scooters can usually reach speeds of up to 15-20 miles per hour, while kick scooters can only go as fast as the rider can physically kick.
Distance: An electric kick scooter can usually travel further than a kick scooter because of the battery. Depending on the model and the terrain, electric kick scooters can travel up to 15-25 miles on a single charge, while kick scooters rely on the rider's energy to travel a certain distance.
Weight: Electric kick scooters are generally heavier than kick scooters because of the motor and battery. This can make them more difficult to carry and store.
Price: Electric kick scooters are generally more expensive than kick scooters because of the added motor and battery components.
Overall, the main difference between an electric kick scooter and a kick scooter is the addition of a motor and battery to the former, which allows for faster speeds and greater distances.
The legality of electric kick scooters in the United States varies by state and city. Some states and cities have specific laws allowing or prohibiting electric kick scooters, while others may have no laws addressing them at all.
In general, many states and cities have passed laws allowing electric kick scooters on roads, bike lanes, and sidewalks, but with certain restrictions. For example, riders may be required to wear helmets, have a valid driver's license, and stay within specific speed limits. Additionally, some cities may require electric kick scooters to be rented from specific companies that have permits to operate in the area.
It's important to check with your local and state authorities to determine the specific laws and regulations regarding electric kick scooters in your area. Riders should also follow all traffic laws and safety guidelines to ensure a safe and legal ride.
Electric kick scooters can provide a form of physical activity and can be a healthy way to get around for some individuals, but it depends on how they are used.
Here are some potential health benefits and drawbacks of using electric kick scooters:
Benefits:
Low-impact exercise: Electric kick scooters can provide low-impact exercise as riders use their legs to push off the ground and balance on the scooter.
Convenient transportation: Electric kick scooters can be a convenient mode of transportation, allowing riders to avoid the stress of traffic and the expense of a car or public transportation.
Eco-friendly: Electric kick scooters are a form of sustainable transportation that can reduce carbon emissions and air pollution.
Drawbacks:
Limited physical activity: Unlike traditional kick scooters or bicycles, electric kick scooters provide little physical exertion as the motor assists the rider in propelling the scooter forward.
Safety concerns: Riding electric kick scooters can be dangerous if proper safety precautions are not taken. Falls and collisions can cause injuries or even fatalities.
Sedentary lifestyle: Electric kick scooters can be seen as a substitute for walking or cycling, leading to a more sedentary lifestyle if used as the primary mode of transportation.
Overall, while electric kick scooters can offer some health benefits, they should not be relied upon as the sole form of physical activity. It's important to balance the use of electric kick scooters with other forms of exercise and to take safety precautions while riding.
Generally, electric bikes are faster than electric kick scooters because they have more powerful motors and larger batteries.
While electric kick scooters can reach speeds of up to 15-20 miles per hour, depending on the model and terrain, electric bikes can typically reach speeds of up to 20-28 miles per hour or even higher. Electric bikes also have the advantage of pedal assist, which means that the motor will assist the rider's pedaling, making it easier to maintain higher speeds and cover longer distances.
Additionally, electric bikes typically have larger wheels and more stable frames, which can make them more comfortable and efficient to ride over longer distances and varied terrain compared to electric kick scooters.
That being said, the speed of an electric kick scooter versus an electric bike can depend on many factors, including the power of the motor, the size of the battery, the weight of the rider, and the terrain. Ultimately, it's important to choose the mode of transportation that best suits your needs and preferences.
Yes, electric kick scooters can go uphill, but the ability to do so depends on several factors such as the power of the motor, the weight of the rider, the steepness of the incline, and the condition of the scooter's battery.
Most electric kick scooters have motors that can assist with climbing moderate inclines of up to 10-15 degrees. However, steeper inclines may require more powerful motors or the rider may need to assist by pushing with their legs.
It's also important to consider the weight of the rider and any additional load being carried on the scooter, such as a backpack or groceries. Heavier loads may make it more difficult for the scooter to climb hills.
Finally, the condition of the scooter's battery can affect its ability to climb hills. If the battery is low or not fully charged, the motor may not have enough power to assist with uphill climbing.
Overall, electric kick scooters can go uphill to some extent, but their ability to do so varies depending on the specific scooter model and the conditions of the terrain. It's important to consider the factors mentioned above before attempting to climb hills on an electric kick scooter.
The range of an electric kick scooter on a full charge varies depending on the specific model, the weight of the rider, the terrain, the speed of travel, and other factors.
On average, most electric kick scooters have a range of between 10 and 25 miles on a single charge, with some high-end models having a range of up to 40 miles. However, it's important to note that the range can vary widely depending on the factors mentioned above.
For example, traveling at higher speeds or climbing steep hills can drain the battery more quickly, reducing the scooter's range. Similarly, heavier riders or carrying additional weight can also reduce the scooter's range.
It's important to check the specifications of the specific electric kick scooter model to determine its range on a full charge. Additionally, riders can take steps to maximize the scooter's range, such as avoiding excessive acceleration, maintaining a consistent speed, and avoiding steep hills or rough terrain.
