Weight-Hauling Smart Scooters

The Lightweight ET Smart Scooter Can Lug Around Heavy Payloads

— November 27, 2015 — Autos
The ET Smart Scooter is proof that if you try again and try hard enough, you can take something that isn't working well and improve it into something top-notch.

The older version of this scooter ran into various problems due to the fact that manufacturing took place in third-party facilities without sufficient oversight. But this new version was manufactured entirely by parent company Royalplay to ensure quality of the product. Moreover, the ET Smart Scooter now comes with keyless start, cruise control as well as a handy USB port for charging your devices on the go. The vehicle is also now capable of carrying as much as 486 kg despite weighing only 16 kg and being able to offer a range of 30 to 40 km per charge.

The ET Smart Scooter will appeal to those who want a lightweight scooter, but one that can itself carry heavy weights around.
