40 mph electric scooter review: Nanrobot N6 tested

author: FutureCar Staff    

For electric scooter riders who need faster speeds, Nanrobot has introduced their latest model, the Nanrobot N6. With a top speed of 40 mph (65 km/h), this scooter is designed to meet the needs of those who want to travel on larger roads or cover longer distances. Unlike some imported scooters, the Nanrobot N6 provides a smooth and stable ride even at its top speed.

The Nanrobot N6 comes with impressive tech specs. It features dual 1,000W hub motors, a 52V 26Ah battery, and 10-inch pneumatic off-road tires. The scooter also has front and rear hydraulic disc brakes, front and rear LED lights, and a load capacity of 330 lb (150 kg). With these specifications, the Nanrobot N6 offers power, speed, and durability.

While fast electric scooters can be expensive, the Nanrobot N6 aims to deliver similar performance at a more affordable price. Priced at $1,899, this scooter provides excellent value for money. It may have a shorter feature list compared to more expensive models, but it still offers impressive performance.

During testing, the Nanrobot N6 proved to be a thrilling ride. Although not constantly traveling at 40 mph, the scooter provided a sense of power and excitement. Safety precautions were taken, including wearing a full-face helmet and Nanrobot's armored jacket. It's important to ride at high speeds in appropriate locations, such as roads with higher speed limits and designated bike lanes.

The Nanrobot N6's ability to reach such high speeds is thanks to its pair of 1,000W hub motors and a large 52V and 26Ah battery. With this battery capacity, riders can expect a range of at least 30 miles (48 km) per charge, and possibly even up to 45 or 50 miles (72-80 km) at more modest speeds. The scooter also includes a second charge port for faster charging.

Comfort is another important aspect of the Nanrobot N6. Whether cruising at lower or higher speeds, the scooter offers a comfortable ride. The suspension is well-designed, providing a smooth and nimble experience. The 360-degree lighting system enhances visibility at night, and the grippy brakes ensure confident stops.

However, one major complaint about the Nanrobot N6 is the throttle design. It uses an index-finger pull throttle, which is located right above the brake lever. This placement can lead to confusion, especially for newcomers to electric scooters. A different throttle design, such as a thumb throttle, would be preferable.

Overall, the Nanrobot N6 delivers impressive performance, comfort, and value for its price. With its fast speeds, powerful motor, and thoughtful design, it's a great option for riders seeking a thrilling scooter experience.
