Horwin EK3 Electric Scooter
The top-of-the-range model, the Horwin EK3 , is the latest electric scooter from the Austrian brand Horwin. It offers an excellent level of finish with quality materials and a maximum speed of 95 km/h .
Its 72V 40Ah battery (same system as the batteries fitted to the Tesla Model S) makes it possible to obtain a large subsidy of up to 720 euros for individuals and 1500 euros for professionals. Thanks to its central belt-driven motor with a power of 6200W and a torque of 195 Nm, this scooter can easily take the fast lane with an estimated range of 100km (200km with a second battery).
The Horwin EK3 is equipped with a keyless start with remote control to be able to lock/unlock it remotely. The light signature of the Horwin EK3 makes it perfectly visible with its 3 daytime running lights on the front, sides and rear of the scooter. For ease of maneuvering around town, the Horwin EK3 is equipped with a handy reverse gear for easy parking.
Doohan iTank 125 Electric Scooter
The Doohan iTank 125 is one of the rare 125cc three-wheel electric models on the French market. It is designed for users looking for great driving comfort combined with the stability of a three-wheeler. Equipped with 3 very powerful hydraulic disc brakes, the braking distances of this electric scooter are reassuring. With its high quality QS 3000W brushless motor, the Doohan iTank is powered by a removable Panasonic lithium battery (60V 26Ah).
With the Doohan iTank and its two batteries, you have a range of 90 km , which is perfectly suited to urban use by being stable and powerful with its 70 km/h maximum speed. An ideal choice as the first cheap 3-wheel electric scooter equivalent to 125 with its unusual look, its very practical reverse function and its neat finishes.
Super Soco CPX Electric Scooter
Available since summer 2020 in France, the Super SOCO CPX from the famous Chinese brand Super SOCO has a sporty look to go with its top speed of 90 km/h. Performance that makes it one of the most complete on the 125 equivalent two-wheel market ( tested here ). It has an acceleration (171 Nm) superior to thermal engines of similar category.
With one or two batteries (60V 45Ah), the Super SOCO CPX transports you with agility over a range of up to 180 km depending on the driving mode chosen. If each battery is on the other hand quite heavy (18 kg all the same), the subsidies are quite generous and constitute a strong argument (it is the case to say it) in the purchase of this electric scooter 125.
Sunra Robo Electric Scooter
As much to say it right away, the SUNRA Robo is one of our favorites at Weebot. Leader on the electric vehicle market in its country China, the SUNRA brand has achieved an almost flawless performance on this inexpensive 125 cm3 electric scooter.
One of the main characteristics on this model is to have placed the removable batteries (72V 20Ah) in the floor. This makes it possible to offer great agility and better balance to this machine with a very low center of gravity, but also to have a huge storage box under the saddle .
The SUNRA Robo has 75 km of autonomy (one battery) or 135 km (2 batteries) for a maximum speed of 75 km/h. More than correct performance for a two-wheeler that is very pleasant to drive, both flexible and responsive, thanks to its high torque of 230 Nm. It does not forget the top-of-the-range equipment such as the keyless start by fingerprint , reverse and hydraulic disc brakes front and rear. An excellent choice in 125 equivalent for those who want performance while maintaining a discreet look.
Seat MO eScooter 125 Electric Scooter
The new electric scooter from the car brand Seat has been available for sale since June 2021. Finally, new is not really the word. Seat has teamed up with Barcelona-based manufacturer Silence and its Silence S01 to create this 125cc equivalent electric scooter.
The Seat MO eScooter 125 is easily recognizable with its transportable battery on a trolley like on the Silence S01. So you can easily recharge the battery at home without having to carry the 40 kg of battery needed to power this powerful electric scooter.
With a 7000W brushless motor, the SEAT MO eScooter 125 has a top speed of 95 km/h. The absence of ABS, on the other hand, seems detrimental to us for a 125 cm3 equivalent at this price.
Weebot having sold the Silence S01 for years, the price of 6700 euros for the SEAT MO eScooter 125 seems a bit high to us. Available only in the SEAT dealership network, the MÓ eScooter 125 has the advantage of having a logo known to the general public that can reassure some buyers.
Sunra Anger Electric Scooter
Last to arrive in the range of 125 equivalent electric scooters at Weebot, the Sunra Anger is available at a gun price under the bar of 3500 euros. This model is a 125cc version of the famous Sunra Hawk Plus.
It offers everything that made the reputation of its 50cc equivalent. Namely the Bluetooth speakers to easily listen to your music as well as the good power consumption of its removable battery.
the Sunra Anger will get you around 70 km on one battery and up to 130 km using the optional second battery. With a top speed of 80 km/h, it is not the fastest, nor the most powerful in this comparison of the best 125 electric scooters, but it is a reliable and easy-to-use model.
Niu NQI GTS Electric Scooter
The best known brand in the world of electric scooters, Weebot had to mention the Niu NQI GTS electric scooter. This reputedly reliable model with its Bosch 3100W motor reaches a maximum speed of 70 km/h.
It is therefore one of the slowest in terms of maximum speed in our comparison of 125 cc electric scooters. With almost 20 km/h to 25 km/h less, the Niu NQI GTS is nevertheless suitable for use in town. It is pleasant to drive and has connected functions thanks to its powerful smartphone application. Available in two-tone from 3600 euros, this electric scooter is positioned as a good mid-range electric scooter.
Podium for best electric scooter 125
Why ride a 125cm3 electric scooter?
What are the points to consider before buying a 125cc equivalent electric scooter ? The 125cm3 electric models meet a growing need for alternative solutions to CO2-emitting combustion engines. Electric scooters are the future of mobility in extra-urban areas by taking up less space on the road but also in terms of parking.
They are more and more numerous on the roads of large and small towns due to their ease of use. Just like the 50cc equivalents , the 125cc equivalent electric models have developed considerably with both quiet and fast vehicles capable of reaching 70 km/h and even 90 km/h. It is therefore possible to use the expressways with these two wheels to connect ever greater distances.
Eco-friendly driving
Attractive in town, the electric scooter does not emit any polluting gases in circulation . The passage to the gas station no longer exists. By buying an electric scooter, you have the feeling of making a gesture for the planet by participating in the common effort for less polluted air.
Your 125cc electric scooter is recharged on a simple power outlet and if most models provide one (or more) removable battery , take the time to take a good look at this feature if you do not have a garage at home with a power outlet. stream nearby.
The silent operation
The silent operation of 125cc electric scooters is a major advantage compared to their thermal counterparts. It is particularly pleasant to drive with this feeling of zen characterized by the smoothness of the ride. You should know that after air pollution, noise pollution is the next battle horse for cities. Some towns are already beginning to equip themselves with anti-noise radar to automatically report noisy two-wheelers.
Low maintenance compared to thermals
On the maintenance side, you are both a winner against a thermal scooter. Electric motors require no maintenance. Those of the Bosch brand are particularly reliable and renowned for their quality. The operation of an electric brushless motor is simple and allows some models to have a reverse gear . Convenient for carrying out maneuvers with a two-wheeler weighing more than 100 kg.
These 125cc electric scooters have regenerative brakes that allow both the battery to be recharged, but also to wear the brakes much less with driving force. All this contributes to the simplicity of use of an electric scooter.
Economy in use
125cm3 equivalent electric scooters are a particularly economical means of transport. With the price of fuel constantly increasing, an electric scooter consumes on average between €0.20 and €0.60 of electricity per 100 km . Then think of the many savings that await you in use: The more you drive, the more you earn!
To play the game of comparison, a 125 cc thermal scooter consumes on average between €6 and €11 of fuel for 100 km. Very far from the prices so on electric scooters.
Benefit from Subsidies
If the purchase price of a 125cm3 electric scooter can put off, be aware that there are many subsidies (just like the electric bike) which can be combined in many cases. We invite you to browse both our blog which deals with the subject of premiums for electric scooter but also our summary page of grants for electric two-wheelers .
To briefly summarize, there are 3 types of subsidies for the purchase of an electric vehicle. Help from the state , your region and your city. If you are a professional, the aid from the region can go up to 1500 euros for example, which represents a huge part of the price of the vehicle.
7-hour training and Auto license
Since January 1, 2011, it is no longer necessary to pass a motorcycle license to drive a 125 cm3 equivalent if you have a B license. With a car license for at least 2 years and if you are over 21 years old , a 7-hour training to teach you how to master two wheels is therefore sufficient to ride with 125cc electric scooters.
Take the bus lanes in Paris
The last point essentially concerns the city of Paris, which has just made accessible bus lanes to electric scooters , as well as electric motorcycles. This allows these non-polluting vehicles to move around the capital even more easily.
This could soon extend to many other cities for a certain time saving on your daily trips by electric scooter.
How to choose the right 125 cm3 electric scooter?
It is important to identify your needs when buying a 125cc electric scooter. You must first calculate your budget, taking into account the subsidies which will automatically lower the final price of the vehicle.
For her look
Choosing the right scooter means buying a model that you like for its look. Some have a classic scooter appearance, others surf more on the vintage trend while some models bet on a maxi scooter appearance. It's all about having fun, even if that doesn't guarantee that it will meet your needs.
Check the maximum autonomy
When it comes to electric vehicles, this is the essential point that can make all the difference for users. It is possible to find models with several batteries (usually 2 batteries) to be able to extend the maximum autonomy. But we would like to remind you that the subsidy on these electric vehicles only concerns the purchase price of a single lithium ion battery.
The e-scooters in our 125 cm3 range have a range of 50 km, 90 km, even 120 km or even 140 km depending on the model. The Horwin EK3 from the Austrian brand Horwin allows with 2 lithium batteries to reach 200 km of autonomy. But this represents a larger budget.
Do you absolutely want a removable battery to plug it into your home? What is the use of your two wheels? Are you taking the expressways or the highway? The larger the battery, the greater its weight. This is to be considered with a removable battery which can weigh between 10 and 20 kg.
Engine power
The power of an electric motor determines the acceleration capacity of electric scooters. The higher the engine power, the greater the purchase aid will be (but still capped) as will the price of the vehicle. A 125cm3 electric scooter has a maximum motor power between 4000W and 11000W . Below this power, we find 50 cm3 electric scooters which are lighter and also slower.
If the maximum speed is not an end in itself in this category, the acceleration torque of a motor on the electric scooters is very useful both in heavy traffic and on steep slopes depending on your build. .
The maximum speed
With 125 cc electric scooters, the top speed can reach 70 km/h for most models, but some two wheels exceed this limit with a maximum speed of 90 km/h (like the Super Soco CPX ) and even 120 km /h . With this category of electric scooters, it is therefore possible to use the expressways, which makes them versatile vehicles. These two electric wheels are both at ease in town, in rural or departmental areas, but also on the highway for vehicles exceeding 100 km/h. It is therefore crucial to know your travel needs in order to choose the right electric scooter.
Driving comfort
The cycle part is a good indicator of handling on electric scooters. This is therefore important for the quality of driving comfort, especially in town where the driving phases can be more complex between the many accelerations, braking, changes of direction of electric scooters and electric motorcycles. Good wheels, pleasant suspensions and effective braking are therefore essential for electric scooters.
It is also necessary to have enough space for the legs and the seat on the saddle to be comfortable when riding an electric scooter, alone or in pairs. So do not hesitate to try electric scooters before to find the one that suits you.
