Okinawa Okhi 90 vs Simple Energy One Comparison

The Okinawa Okhi 90 is the flagship electric two-wheeler from the company and it goes up against established rivals such as the Ather 450X, TVS iQube and Bajaj Chetak. Power on the Okinawa Okhi-90 electric scooter comes from the 3.8 kW belt drive motor. The company says the scooter can hit a top speed of 85-90 kmph. The electric motor draws power from the detachable 3.6 kWh lithium-ion battery. The Okhi-90 can go up to 160 km on a single charge in Sport mode, while exceeding 200 km in Eco mode.

The Simple One is quick, sporty and can very easily compete to take on the very best premium electric scooters in the segment. Straight line performance is very impressive, and the dynamics are well-sorted, with sharp handling and agility. As the first electric scooter from a start-up, the Simple ONE indeed is a very promising product. How it is finally introduced in production form, and if it lives up to the claimed range, features and performance, will be key to its success and acceptability. But few things like quality issues and seat design need to be fixed.
