Zapp released the i300 last year
The electric scooter was announced at an event and has now reportedly opened its reservations. The i300 electric scooter comes in several models and one of its biggest highlights is its innovative design. It has a claimed range of 37 miles (about 60 km) and is capable of hitting a top speed of 60 mph (about 97 kmph) in just 4.8 seconds. Zapp says that the i300 is inspired by motorsports in design, technology and materials used.
According to Gizmochina, the reservations for the Zapp i300 have been opened. As we mentioned, the electric scooter was launched last year. However, only its specifications and price were revealed at that time and now the scooter can be reserved online. The electric scooter is available in multiple custom options as well as various color options. The e-bike can be ordered directly from Zapp’s website and can be delivered to any part of the world.
The entry-level ‘Ocean’ model in the Zapp i300 lineup costs around 6,900 Euros (around Rs 6 lakh). There is a ‘bio’ model, which costs 7,900 euros (about Rs 7 lakh). After that, there will be a ‘carbon’ model, which will be priced at Euro 8,900 (roughly Rs. 7.8 lakh) and finally, there will be a limited ‘carbon launch edition’, priced at Euro 9,490 (roughly Rs. 8.4 lakh). Reportedly only 1,000 units of the Launch Edition Zapp EV i300 will be built and sold.
Talking about the features, the i300’s electric motor and battery compartment are fitted in the centre, which the company claims, will give it better balance. The electric motor is capable of generating 9.6 hp of power and 20hp of maximum power. This powertrain generates peak torque of 587 Nm, due to which the electric scooter can accelerate from 0-48 kmph in 2.2 seconds and 0-97 kmph in just 4.8 seconds. Its top speed is around 97 kmph.
The Zapp i300 has a range of 37 miles (60 km). Certainly it looks less in terms of price. With this much range, it will be fine for daily commuting in the city. Zapp says the battery can be easily removed and charged in minutes. The company claims that its battery can go from 0 to 80% within 40 minutes.
