Every figure from the manufacturer's sheet, plus what each feature actually does for you.
Motor, battery and charging
A full charge from a home socket takes about 3.45 hours, and it supports fast charging for a quicker top-up on the road. The battery is fixed, so you need a plug where the scooter parks.
Chassis hardware includes a rear monoshock and a combi-brake system, with a disc, 200 mm up front and drum, 130 mm at the rear.

Features, and why each matters
Grouped by what they do for you. Underlined items link to a plain-English explainer.
Safety and braking
Links the rear brake lever to the front so a rear-only stamp still slows you properly.
Front disc brake
Sheds heat and works when wet. Worth the small premium over a drum on any commuter.
Tubeless tyres
A puncture deflates slowly instead of instantly, and roadside repair takes ten minutes.
Chassis
Alloy wheels
Lighter than spoked wheels and they allow tubeless tyres.
Rear monoshock
One central shock instead of twin units; usually better damping on broken roads.
Lighting
LED headlamp
Brighter, whiter and lasts the life of the bike. Halogens on rivals look yellow by comparison.
LED daytime running lamp
Makes you visible to cars in daylight, when most two-wheeler collisions happen.
LED tail lamp
Lights up instantly, which gives the vehicle behind a fraction more warning.
Console and connectivity
Digital console
Trip meters, real-time mileage and a gear indicator. The analogue dial is disappearing.
Bluetooth connectivity
Call and message alerts on the console so the phone stays in your pocket.
Ride modes
An Eco map for mileage and a Power map for overtakes, switched from the bars.
Convenience
USB charging port
Charges the phone on a long commute. Check whether it is Type-A or Type-C.
Under-seat storage
Whether a full-face helmet fits is the question to ask at the showroom.
Electric
Public or home fast charger support cuts a full charge from overnight to an hour or two.
Reverse mode
Walks the scooter backwards out of a tight parking spot under motor power.
Hill hold
Holds the brakes on a slope for a moment so you do not roll back at a signal.
Cruise control
Holds a set speed on open roads. Mostly a highway feature.
Equipment against Konarc and Orbiter
Against Konarc or Orbiter, it gets front disc brake and rear monoshock that most rivals skip.
What it lacks: side-stand engine cut-off, hazard lamps, colour tft console and turn-by-turn navigation, which rivals at this price offer. The safety items in that list matter more than the console.
