Okinawa Lite specifications and features
Every figure from the manufacturer's sheet, plus what each feature actually does for you.
The numbers in context
Each figure read against the 88 electric scooters we have reviewed.
A spec sheet on its own says little. Here every Lite figure is set against the average for the 88 electric scooters on this site, so you can see which numbers are ordinary for the class and which ones set it apart.
The 0.3 kW motor is 4.8 kW below the class average of 5 kW, 64th of 76. Battery of 1.3 kWh is 1.5 kWh below the class average of 2.7 kWh, 82nd of 88. Certified range of 60 km is 62 km below the class average of 122 km, 83rd of 88.
Charging time is 5 hours, right on the class average of 4.9 hours. Top speed is 25 km/h, 42 km/h below the class average of 67 km/h, 72nd of 88. Seat height is 740 mm, 36 mm below the class average of 776 mm, 52nd of 57. Most riders from about 5'2" will get both feet flat.

Dimensions in practice
The Lite has an 740 mm seat, 160 mm of ground clearance. Clearance is on the low side; take tall speed breakers at an angle with a pillion.
Tyres are 3.00-10 front and 3.00-10 rear, tubeless.
Features, and why each matters
Grouped by what they do for you. Underlined items link to a plain-English explainer.
Safety and braking
ABS on the front wheel only. Far better than none; the rear can still lock.
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.
Hazard lamps
All four indicators flash; useful in fog and when stopped on a highway shoulder.
Chassis
Alloy wheels
Lighter than spoked wheels and they allow tubeless tyres.
Electric
Carry the pack upstairs to charge. Solves the no-plug-at-parking problem.
Recovers a little charge when slowing and saves brake pads.
Cruise control
Holds a set speed on open roads. Mostly a highway feature.
Over-the-air updates
Software features and fixes arrive without a service visit.
Lighting
LED headlamp
Brighter, whiter and lasts the life of the bike. Halogens on rivals look yellow by comparison.
Projector headlamp
Sharper cut-off and a longer throw than a reflector unit.
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.
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.
Equipment against R30, Reo and Gen Nxt
Equipment present on at least one variant of each; check the variant table for trim-specific items.
