Ampere Reo vs Benelli Imperiale 400 Comparison

The Ampere REO offers a compact, lightweight electric scooter which is not very expensive and is easy to ride. Being a low-speed electric scooter, it also doesn’t require any driving licence and is good for short runarounds. But its long charging time, and low top speed of 25 kmph are also hindrances to make it a practical, everyday electric scooter which can replace a conventional petrol-powered scooter for urban use.

The Imperiale 400 could be quite an enjoyable companion on a relaxed ride taking in the sights. Despite the minor vibes, the engine never loses its smoothness, nor does it feel like it will fall apart, even after sustained triple digit speed riding. And that is what makes the Imperiale 400 feel noticeably different. It's not a performance bike by a long shot, but a retro classic, meant for easy, relaxed riding. If that is the kind of motorcycle you seek, it ticks all the right boxes.
