Motor, battery and charging

The Wave's 6.4 kW motor is the 20rd most powerful among the 48 electric scooters here and takes it to a top speed of 75 km/h, which limits it to city use.

Seat height is a low 775 mm, so riders around 5'2" and above can plant both feet at a stop.

Dimensions in practice

The Wave has an 775 mm seat, 175 mm of ground clearance. That clearance is generous: speed breakers and broken roads will not trouble the underbody.

Features, and why each matters

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

Safety and braking

  • Front disc brake

    Sheds heat and works when wet. Worth the small premium over a drum on any commuter.

Lighting

  • LED headlamp

    Brighter, whiter and lasts the life of the bike. Halogens on rivals look yellow by comparison.

  • LED tail lamp

    Lights up instantly, which gives the vehicle behind a fraction more warning.

Console and connectivity

  • 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.

Chassis

  • Alloy wheels

    Lighter than spoked wheels and they allow tubeless tyres.

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

  • Reverse mode

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

  • Over-the-air updates

    Software features and fixes arrive without a service visit.

  • Companion app

    Charge status, location and ride stats on your phone.

Against VX2, DX or N-First, it gets front disc brake, turn-by-turn navigation and usb charging port that most rivals skip.

What it lacks: combi-brake (cbs), tubeless tyres, led daytime running lamp and digital console, which rivals at this price offer. The safety items in that list matter more than the console.
