Like it or not, electric vehicles are gaining popularity and are here to stay, but what is the Super Soco CPX electric scooter all about. In this video I let you know what I like and what I don't like about the CPX, I hope you enjoy.

I’ve never ridden anything lectric so I couldn’t really make a qualified comment. But your review is one of the most honest ones I’ve seen on EV. 👍🏾🇦🇺

Thanks for that, I am keen to get on some more electric bikes to do some more reviews. I have a few things in the pipeline so watch this space.

I agree that this concept is here to stay, and obviously the technology, as with everything, will continue to evolve. For urban commuting this would be fantastic. ✌️

Im interested in seeing the next iteration of EVs, looks like some really good propositions coming up in the next 6 months, particularly in Australia.

@RoadsOfOz Год назад

My wife was looking at one of these recently. Looks like it is fit for purpose. But definitely needs a top box.

@Raphael-zl5jb 5 месяцев назад

I wanted an electric bike to commute on but couldn't justify the cost when you factor in the range and performance. For $8k, I ended up with a '18 GTS300 Vespa that will easily do 100kmh all while using around 2L/100km of fuel.

@BikerTorque 5 месяцев назад

Love the GTS300 awesome bike

@BikerTorque 8 месяцев назад

@motorcyclestuff1961 2 года назад

not bad for a inner city commute :)

@BikerTorque Год назад

👍

@whatsstefon 2 года назад

It definitely works in the right environment, inner city runabout. I think anywhere outside of that the limitations of poor uphill performance (which I’m amazed and shocked at) will not help for anything outside of a built up area, as you’ll either meet some hills or high speed country roads. The removable battery is great, unfortunately at the cost of space. Which is always a trade off. Proprietary batteries can be made into custom shapes that could help with storage.

@BikerTorque Год назад

@RidingHumboldtCounty 2 года назад

Sure does eliminate the need for gasoline. I guess it all depends on the person. Thumbs up 👍

@checkyourfax 2 года назад

Here scooters are limited at 45km/h and are allowed on many bicycle lanes. I tried this scooter and it's amazing at those speeds. Have to leave it in sports mode though because at 45 km/h all the other modes do is cause a decline in acceleration, but otherwise they all seem to have the same top speed due to the limiting. Uphill when it's limited at 45 km/h it keeps up to that speed 100% of the time. Also, with a dual battery, technically the scooter should be able to output way more power, because the battery will be able to output way more amperage (twice the amount) That's how electrical motors work. At a slight increase of wear it would be technically possible to tweak the ECU to make it better at climbing uphill, and reach higher top speeds. But for some reason Super Soco didn't decide to allow higher speeds. The wiring would possibly also need to be updated to prevent melting, depending on its quality.

@ferosofranek8817 Год назад

only one battery can be discharged at the time - when it reach 20%, then automatically switch to other battery this type of scooter can't deliver significantly more power, because HUB motor design (fast overheating) and also because high battery current (with actual design, it deliver 4.8kW from only 2.7kWh battery)

@checkyourfax Год назад

@@ferosofranek8817 thank you for the clarification. That does make sense. At 45 km/h its good enough. The hub design does make it easy to remove and repair. Can signicantly reduce cost of maintenance

@checkyourfax Год назад

@@ferosofranek8817 Hmmm there's a video of a guy who hacked the battery controller so it uses both batteries at the same time. At that point it SHOULD be possible to get more power out of the engine by tweaking the ECU, but like you said, overheating would likely be a tremendous problem.

@BikerTorque Год назад

Agree, if you are limited to 45kms it’s pretty good

@hachewie 2 года назад

I can’t see it as a viable machine out here in the west, at least for me. I’m still close going to the hope that we can keep our internal combustion engine and use some sort of carbon neutral bio- fuel. It already exists but we don’t hear about it because we’ve already been sold on ev’s.

Hey Chewie, thanks for watching. I personally don't mind the idea of EVs, but definitely don't want to give up my internal combustion engine bikes
