Evolet Derby vs Ampere Reo Comparison

The Evolet Derby is a low speed electric scooter and is available in two variants – EZ, with a lead acid battery, and Classic, with a lithium ion battery. The ICAT certified Derby is powered by a 250 watt BLDC electric motor. The Derby EZ with VRLA battery (lead acid) takes 8-9 hours to be fully charged and has a range of 90-120 kms. Derby Classic with a lithium ion battery, has a charging time of 3-4 hours, and has a maximum range of 90-120 km. The Derby features a spacious seat and also comes with full-digital speedometer, as well as electronic assisted braking system and optional IOT features. As far as low-speed electric scooters go, the Evolet Derby is a decent option.

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.
