Motor, battery and charging

The S1 X's 7 kW motor is the 7rd most powerful among the 21 electric scooters here and takes it to a top speed of 101 km/h, fast enough for a ring road or short highway stretch.

A full charge from a home socket takes about 5 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.

Dimensions in practice

The S1 X weighs 105 kg with fluids, has an 791 mm seat, 160 mm of ground clearance, and rides on a 1359 mm wheelbase. Clearance is on the low side; take tall speed breakers at an angle with a pillion.

Tyres are 90/90-R12 front and 90/90-R12 rear.

Features, and why each matters

Grouped by what they do for you. Underlined items link to a plain-English explainer.

Safety and braking

  • Combi-brake (CBS)

    Links the rear brake lever to the front so a rear-only stamp still slows you properly.

  • Side-stand engine cut-off

    Engine will not run with the stand down, which prevents a common low-speed crash.

  • Hazard lamps

    All four indicators flash; useful in fog and when stopped on a highway shoulder.

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.

  • Bluetooth connectivity

    Call and message alerts on the console so the phone stays in your pocket.

  • Turn-by-turn navigation

    Directions on the console via the phone app. Saves mounting a phone on the bars.

  • Ride modes

    An Eco map for mileage and a Power map for overtakes, switched from the bars.

Convenience

  • Under-seat storage

    Whether a full-face helmet fits is the question to ask at the showroom.

Electric

  • Fast charging

    Public or home fast charger support cuts a full charge from overnight to an hour or two.

  • Regenerative braking

    Recovers a little charge when slowing and saves brake pads.

  • Reverse mode

    Walks the scooter backwards out of a tight parking spot under motor power.

  • 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.

  • Companion app

    Charge status, location and ride stats on your phone.
