Piaggio (for which read Vespa) is no stranger to electric scooters. In fact, it launched the elegant Vespa Elettrica back in 2018. Clean, quiet and with all the style of a modern Vespa, it should have sold by the boatload to style conscious commuters. Introducing the new generation of E-Scooters for urban mobility: quality, technology, reliability, and safety for the first time in one essential, easy, and lightweight electric scooter. But now Piaggio has finally got serious about the electric scooter market, launching the 1 and 1 Active. Both are straightforward e-scooters in the modern mould, with lift-out batteries and all-round user convenience. It might seem odd to talk about power and torque with something as small as the 1, but these things still matter. The standard 1 is a bog standard moped with a 1.3kw motor and a 28mph top speed, but the Active is a lot more interesting. A more powerful motor endows it with a top end of 38mph, which might not seem very much but makes a whole lot of difference when cruising a suburban 30-limit where a lot of the traffic is on 35mph or more. In this situation a 28mph moped just hasn't got enough speed to go with the flow, so you can find yourself being tailgated, cut up and generally treated with disdain by faster cars. That doesn't happen with the Active, which can keep up 35-38mph on the flat and even crept up to an indicated 44mph downhill – going up the other side put a bit of a dent in speed, Piaggio 1 maintains all the premium content typical of Piaggio scooters: design and attention to detail, refined, great reliability, and cargo capacity. Piaggio 1 Active: Speed of 37 mph, range of up to 52 miles in ECO*, up to 41 miles in SPORT (WMTC cycle). This scooter is fully serviced, inspected and ready to roll.
