Evolet Derby vs Piaggio Vespa 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 Piaggio Vespa is a fun scooter, with a likeable old-school design that has been around for almost five decades. It offers decent performance, has a stiff ride quality. It handles well too but is now getting a little long in the tooth, with Piaggio not having made any recent and significant updates in the last few years. Despite decent dynamics, the brakes lack bite, and the scooter is on the expensive side, even for 150 cc scooter models.
