The Shineray Electric Model Stands Out for Its Competitive Price in Used Listings, Range of Up to 60 Km Per Charge, and Urban Proposal. Confusion with Nomenclature and Consumption in Km/L Sparks Debate Among Consumers.
The promise of a “SHE-S2” for R$ 7 thousand and consumption of 40 km/l circulates on networks and aggregator sites, but the reality check reveals a different scenario.
In Shineray’s official catalog in Brazil, the corresponding model is the SE2, an entry-level electric scooter.
As it is electric, it does not use gasoline and therefore does not have consumption measured in km/l.

Ducati brings to Brazil the Superleggera V4 Centenario: 228 hp that become 247 with a track kit, carbon fiber and carbon-ceramic brakes, estimated price between R$ 1.5 and 2 million, deliveries only in 2027.
The suggested retail price for a zero-kilometer unit starts at R$ 12,490 on the brand’s e-commerce, and this value is subject to shipping fees and regional variations.
What is the Shineray SE2
Although the name “SHE-S2” appears in informal publications, Shineray’s nomenclature for the retro-styled electric scooter is SE2.
It is part of the brand’s urban electric line, alongside versions such as SE1 and the motorcycle SHE-S.
The manufacturer’s website describes the SE2 with a 2,300 W Bosch motor, maintenance-free, and a removable lithium battery of 60 V and 23.4 Ah.
The reported range is up to 60 km per battery, with a recharge time estimated between 6 and 8 hours.
The SHE-S, on the other hand, is a distinct electric model, introduced in Brazil in 2022 and currently sold on the official website starting at R$ 16,490.
At launch, its advertised price was R$ 18,990, focusing on urban use and moderate performance.
This distinction helps to clarify why there has been recent confusion regarding names and prices.
Price of the Shineray SE2: New and Used
For new units, the SE2 starts at R$ 12,490 on the brand’s official channel, which may vary by location and shipping charges.
Automotive platforms list the zero-kilometer model in the range of R$ 14,990 in catalogs and guides, reinforcing the distance from the R$ 7 thousand mentioned in the title.
The value of R$ 7 thousand appears in used listings.
National classifieds show SE2 models with a few years of use offered between R$ 7,500 and R$ 10 thousand, a range that may have led to the perception of a “R$ 7 thousand motorcycle”.
For comparison, this refers to the second-hand market, not the suggested price at dealerships.
Economy and Maintenance of the Shineray SE2
Being electric, the SE2 does not consume fossil fuel, which eliminates variations in gasoline prices in the calculation of daily usage.
The reference for economy here involves range per charge, cost of charging at home, and the durability of components like batteries and tires.
According to the manufacturer, the SE2 achieves up to 60 km per charge and accepts a second battery to extend the range, which is relevant for urban routes.
The Bosch motor is described as maintenance-free, which tends to simplify the maintenance schedule compared to combustion models.
Still, it is important to consider costs not displayed in “km/l”, such as potential battery replacement in the long run and availability of technical assistance.
The Shineray network and its partner stores offer the electric line, but the availability of parts and deadlines may vary by region.
Urban Performance of the Shineray SE2
In terms of use, the SE2 was designed for urban travel over short to medium distances.
The brand’s material indicates a maximum speed close to 59–60 km/h, sufficient for moderately trafficked avenues and neighborhoods.
The scooter offers the advantage of immediate start and driving without gear shifts.
Being compact, it does not provide the same speed and acceleration flexibility as a 150–160 cm³ combustion motorcycle.
Competitors: CG 160 and Factor 150
The comparison with Honda CG 160 and Yamaha Factor 150 arises through the lens of accessible mobility.
These combustion models are benchmarks for durability and wide assistance networks.
They perform well for urban work and run with moderate fuel consumption, in addition to offering high range per tank.
On the other hand, they entail traditional fuel costs and mechanical maintenance associated with gasoline engines.
In contrast, the SE2 proposes a different logic: usage cost linked to electricity and simplified maintenance, with the advantage of home charging.
In terms of price, while the new SE2 starts at R$ 12,490, the value of R$ 7 thousand is feasible for used units.
In the CG/Factor universe, this price level usually refers to used motorcycles with variable mileage and condition.
What to Evaluate Before Buying
Those considering the SE2 proposal should analyze daily range needed, available charging time, and potential second battery purchase.
It is also important to confirm warranty conditions and the presence of a sales point or service in the city.
For anyone considering a CG 160 or Factor 150, the analysis revolves around fuel costs, frequency of maintenance, and versatility for mixed routes.
In summary, the appeal of an “economic motorcycle” holds true in the context of Shineray’s electric line, but the widely publicized numbers in km/l and the price of R$ 7 thousand do not correspond to the suggested new price of the SE2 in Brazil.
These values mainly appear in used offers, and the correct metric for economy is range per charge, not km/l.
If you predominantly ride in the city, have somewhere to charge, and prioritize ease of use, the SE2 makes sense for your daily life, or do highways on your route and the need for higher speed still make CG 160 and Factor 150 more suitable choices?
