The Y1000 is positioned as the brand's most powerful off-road flagship model, featuring a [dual-motor system](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/splach-twin) capable of a peak output of 2400 watts. This model is built around a 52-volt battery that supports a maximum range of up to 100 kilometers on a single charge, and its performance capabilities are complemented by hydraulic disc brakes and a reinforced suspension system to enhance control and stability in demanding conditions. In contrast, the Y700 is engineered as an entry-level off-road scooter focused on structured daily commuting, equipped with a 1200-watt peak motor that offers up to 85 kilometers of range. Its design incorporates a fixed frame for durability and riding stability, along with a dual suspension system to improve comfort and control on typical city roads and uneven pavement. Both performance-driven electric scooters integrate smart features such as Near Field Communication (NFC) unlocking, Bluetooth-enabled navigation, and cruise control.
