The new Segway-Ninebot E-Series: E22, E25 and E45
SEGWAY-NINEBOT launches three new models. Does the design and weight beat the range king G30D?
With the G30D, SEGWAY-NINEBOT has created a globally successful endurance runner. The 65 km range and price of less than 800 euros are particularly impressive. But now there is competition from within the company. With the new E-series, Segway is following on from the discontinued ES1 and ES2 and is launching three new contenders for a successful city hopper product. Although a closer look reveals that they are more likely to be variants of ONE new model, the E-Scooters bring a lot of new features to the table.
E22, E25, E45D: the Segway-Ninebot product designations
What is probably more familiar as an internal article name structure from the merchandise management system of an office supplies mail order company is the programme at Segway-Ninebot. No creative fantasy names, but simply the range is reflected in the article designation.
The E22 has a range of 22 kilometres, the E25 25 kilometres and the E45 (no wonder?) up to 45 kilometres thanks to a built-in additional battery. There is also a 25 km/h and a 20 km/h version of each model (E or D model). All models offer an ideal way to commute long distances comfortably and conveniently.
E22, E25 and E45 similarities
The new e-models have many things in common across all variants. Here is an overview:
- Maximum speed 20 km/h (all "D" models, "E" models 25 km/h)
- Hands-free, simple folding mechanism for better portability
- elegant, cable-free design (even without Brake Lever thanks to electronic brakes!)
- 300 watts of power
- Puncture-proof tyre technology with special foam filling
- Smart Battery Management System (BMS) for monitoring battery performance and preventing overheating, discharging, overcharging, etc.
- Full LED driver information dashboard for displaying driving information
