Piaggio One electric scooter specifications released



Piaggio One will be available in three trims - One, One + and One Active.

The Piaggio One is the base model and is powered by a 1.2kW motor and has a top speed of 45kph. It also has the smallest battery of the three models, at 1.8kWh, and unsurprisingly the least range, at 55km.

The mid-spec variant, the One+ gets the same 1.2kWh electric motor but a larger battery, at 2.3kWh. This variant can hit speeds of 55kph and can cover 100km on a single charge.

The Piaggio One Active is the top-spec variant and hence gets a 2kW motor. It propels the scooter to a top whack of 60kph. The battery size, meanwhile, is the same as the One+ but the range is lower, at 85km.

Piaggio claims removable batteries can be charged from 0 to full in six hours.

The Piaggio One has a comprehensive features list that includes removable batteries, two ride modes, LED lights and USB charging. It also gets a fully-digital instrument cluster.

The electric scooter features single-sided trailing-link front suspension. At the rear, there's a double-sided swingarm suspended on twin shock absorbers. Braking duties are taken care of by a disc brake on both wheels.
