techrua's Review of EVT 4000e Electric Scooter
27th Aug 2007
Overall Rating
- Value for money
- Build quality
- Length of ownership4 Years
- Reliability
Utterly reliable, no sound, no drive belt have driven it for 10.000 km at virtually no costs. Yes, you need to balance the battery set before using it. We still use the first set of batteries, but have opted for a better charging device. Consistent range 50 km. We are contemplating using Li- Ion batteries, longer range and considerable weight reduction.
Bad Points
Heavy in weight, but that is also a bonus in strong winds.
At -1 Celsius range drops to 30 km.
General Comments
Utterly reliable, no sound, no drive belt have driven it for 10.000 km at virtually no costs. Yes, you need to balance the battery set before using it. We still use the first set of batteries, but have opted for a better charging device. Consistent range 50 km. We are contemplating using Li- Ion batteries, longer range and considerable weight reduction. Pre-delivery check at importer is crucial, balance the batteries and adjust the charger to European conditions and you have a perfect means of regional transport. No costs no maintenance, we are running 3 days a week on wind/solar charging.
