Construction / commissioning

Xiaomi Scooter-6082dc60 review

The electric scooter is delivered already assembled. A first positive aspect is that this model foldable and thus seems easy to stow away. With dimensions of 110 x 20 x 110 cm and a weight of 12,5 kg, this scooter looks quite robust and well made.

The model is metallic - aluminum - and has a brake at the front and rear. The maximum weight is according to the instructions limited to 100 kg.

After I have set up the Xiaomi electric scooter 1S, it must first have a corresponding App activated will. However, this process is done quickly and the device then activates the display. Yet unnecessary process!

Based on the operating instructions, I could see that the handling is kept quite simple and that Display Displays properties such as battery level, distance traveled, speed and Bluetooth. I think the display is big enough and easy to read.

The device is switched on via the power button directly on the display.

In addition, the Xiaomi electric scooter 1S has a front and rear light. Both should be very energy-saving and thus enable long driving.

A stand for parking the scooter is also available.

Interesting facts

This e-scooter requires street approval. This is a small number, which in my case is only 15 € per year costs. This includes all costs plus electricity costs. Admission is easy online with an insurance company.

The Xiaomi scooter has a rear disc brake, which should enable ideal braking behavior. In addition, numerous reflectors are installed.

The maximum speed is on 20Km/h limited, so that this model is also approved in Germany. Similar models, for example 25Km/h drive,

exceed the permitted maximum speed for e-scooters and are not permitted within the Federal Republic of Germany.

When fully charged Battery with 7650 mAh and 275 Wh can use the Mi Scooter 1S up to 30 km be driven. Even on inclines, the scooter doesn’t run down, so even on inclines to 14% nothing to be desired.

But how does the scooter perform in the real test?

First ride with the Xiaomi electric scooter 1S

Test Xiaomi Scooter Amazon ca7fc7d9

First I had to charge the electric scooter. With his 600 watts, this model is in the average of the performance capacity.

In order to start driving now, you have to Xiaomi electric scooter 1S Briefly push a little and press the corresponding lever (throttle), the scooter will now start moving automatically.

Driving is unusual at first, as the scooter accelerates extremely quickly. I was surprised by the quiet driving style. The engine itself, as well as the tires, generate little noise and produce a safe driving experience, even on uneven surfaces.

As soon as you drive a longer distance, about 100 meters, at the same speed, it is activated Cruise Control independently, so that you don't have to press the throttle any further. That relieves the wrist!

The built-in rear light lights up as soon as the scooter is switched on. The front light can be switched on manually. When driving, however, I noticed that when the front light is activated, the top speed is reduced to a maximum of 10 km / h. After I was initially very surprised about this, I was able to read on the website that this is mandatory in Germany. In this case, I can only guess an external battery operated bicycle light to get around to avoid the throttling.

In my first test, the battery was almost empty after about 22 kilometers and had to be charged. The e-scooter did not make the specified 30 km, but this may be due to my fast driving style.

Driving is absolutely fun. I had a safe feeling, even if you have to be even more careful in traffic. Only the braking takes a bit of getting used to, in my opinion these are very strong. The braking behavior should therefore be tested on the first ride in order to avoid a fall.
