All e-motive scooters come with a comprehensive two-year unlimited mileage warranty for the bike, while Silicon batteries carry a 12 month warranty, and 24 months for the Lithium Ion battery.
For added peace of mind, all new e-motive electric scooters also come with two years free AA roadside assistance.

Commented Paul Williams, managing director of e-motive's importer, Koelliker UK, At around 1 penny per mile, an e-motive scooter is cheaper than taking the bus! It provides all the benefits of go when you like personal transport without the hassle, while also doing your bit for the environment.
With petrol prices now nudging £1.30p/litre, and the cost of public transport and car parking on the rise, an increasing number of people are beginning to explore how they can travel more economically. Whether for commuting to work, shopping or just getting around and socializing, an electric scooter gets you there more cheaply; and with zero emissions, you're not creating CO2 pollution and smelly exhaust fumes.

Unlike many companies selling electric scooters, e-motive is part of an established vehicle distribution company, Koelliker UK Ltd. The company operates nationally with the backing of an established network of retailers. This means you can test-ride scooters before purchase, get specific advice from knowledgeable technicians and also get full after-sales servicing and support including AA roadside assistance.

Living with an e-motive scooter

An e-motive scooter takes its power from a series of batteries that are charged-up from your standard 240volt mains supply at home. These drive a highly efficient, low-maintenance brushless electric motor. Just turn the key to on, twist the throttle and the motor turns the wheels. Acceleration is surprisingly swift, but all you hear is a faint whirr. There's no need for an exhaust pipe, because there is no exhaust, helping to keep the bike, your clothing and the air around you completely clean. So you can hear birds singing, breathe more easily and savour the smell of the countryside.

It is calculated to cost about 1p a mile to run an e-motive scooter, and you can recharge the batteries up to 2,000 times before they need recycling.  Under normal use, the battery should last up to three years.
