Xiaomi Should Launch By 2022 Its New Line Of Electric Scooters That Promises To Cost Less Than Its Smartphones

Xiaomi, known for its amazing mobile devices, is studying a possible entry into the electric scooter and bike market that is cheaper than its smartphones, joining another disruptor, Ola Electric, which is invading the two-wheeled vehicle market.

The partnership between Xiaomi and Great Wall Motor is expected to be announced as soon as next week, according to information from Reuters.

Xiaomi is the third largest smartphone manufacturer in the world, with 11.2% of the market, according to market researcher IDC. However, there was a setback in January when the Trump administration placed the company on a blacklist, preventing American citizens or organizations from investing in the company due to alleged ties with the Chinese military. A U.S. federal judge issued an order earlier this month temporarily blocking this ban.

Design And Performance Of The Xiaomi Ninebot F25 Electric Scooter

Continuing with the attractive and comfortable design of the Xiaomi ES family, this electric scooter features a flexible one-piece metal frame. It uses a fine-particle sandblasted coating that provides excellent texture. The main components are integrated into the tube. Therefore, there are almost no protruding parts or wiring harnesses.

In terms of performance, the customized 700W peak power motor has the same speed of 25 km/h as standard electric bikes. It also has a 15% climbing capacity. The 18650 battery has a lifespan of 25 kilometers.

Price And Availability Similar To The Company’s Smartphones

The Mi Electric Scooter Pro 2 – the Mercedes AMG Petronas F1 Edition has a retail price of $1,499 and is now in Australia, including other European regions.

Additionally, it is available in Mercedes/Petronas colors and features the F1 team’s logo on its branding. However, this limited edition Mi Electric Scooter Pro 2 costs about $300 or more compared to other models available on the market. But if you’re an F1 fan and don’t want to miss the opportunity, grab it.

Urban Mobility With The New Xiaomi Scooter

Weighing only 52 kg, both models feature voice commands and have a removable battery that can be taken out and charged outside the vehicle. Features also include an onboard computer, front disc brakes, and an integrated camera to record the journey in 1080p along with your smartphones.

The differences are that in the A1 Pro, the camera memory is internal and the color screen is touch-sensitive. Additionally, the Pro model has greater autonomy (70 km versus 60 km of the regular A1).

Although Xiaomi is better known in Brazil for its cell phones, in China the manufacturer has been heavily investing in mobility. It began launching scooters there in 2015 and, in March of this year, announced it will invest $10 billion over the next 10 years in its electric car division. It is already known that its rivals in telecommunications, Huawei and Apple, are also working on electric cars.
