This is the latest version of the VSETT 8 Lite and it comes with all of the same spec as the previous version and an upgraded, centre-mounted display.
If you are looking for high quality, high performance on a budget, then look no further than the VSETT 8 electric scooter. It's small, compact and folds beautifully with a telescopic steering column allowing you to slide this baby under your desk or stow it easily in the boot of your car or on public transport. It's driven by a 600w brushless DC hub motor in the rear wheel, so it's not insanely torquey but it's got load of power to take on hills and heavier loads without any decrease in performance. An ice-cool LED strip down the front of the steering column makes you super-visible in low light situations, enhancing your safety on and off the road.
VSETT claim a maximum range of up to 45km for the VSETT 8 Lite 15.6Ah electric scooter. At LOCO we recommend that the achievable range for most electric scooters is about 50% of the manufacturer claimed maximum range. We would expect to see an achievable range of 25km on the VSETT 8 Lite.
Super-smooth braking is delivered by front and rear drum brakes as well as a regenerative brake on the rear hub motor. Hydraulic disc brakes are not essential for an electric scooter at this weight-to-power ratio. Front and rear swing-arm coil suspension provide maximum comfort under any driving conditions, whether you are driving on or off-road.
Front and rear lights are accompanied by integrated front and rear indicators controlled by switches in the handlebar grips. These are the best built-in indicators we have seen in an electric scooter.Â
Overall this a cracking everyday scooter at an entry level price from an incredibly high spec manufacturer. It's got all of the usual wonderful details that we have come to expect from a VSETT electric scooter.
This scooter is rated IP54, meaning it is splash-resistant but not fully waterproof.
Water damage is not covered under the standard manufacturer warranty, and LOCO Care water protection is not available for this model.
If riding regularly in wet Irish conditions is important to you, we recommend exploring our LOCO or PURE models, which are designed with enhanced waterproof protection and built specifically for everyday riding in Ireland.
