As a new type of personal travel tool, electric scooter has gone through many stages, from the initial simple design to today's diversified functions, continuous innovation and update.
The original electric scooter dates back to the late 1990s as a simple scooter equipped with an electric drive system, mainly for recreation and play. These early electric scooters were simple, slow, mainly children's toys, and had limited battery life and limited use.
With the progress of science and technology and the increasing demand for environmentally friendly travel, electric scooters gradually began to enter the public view. At the beginning of the 21st century, with the development of electric vehicle technology, some companies began to develop and produce more mature electric scooters, with higher speed and longer range, and began to emerge in the field of urban travel.
Around 2010, with the rise of the sharing economy, sharing electric scooters became the new favorite of urban travel. Some startups have launched an electric scooter sharing service, which can be rented anytime and anywhere through the mobile APP, providing a more convenient choice for urban travel and accelerating the popularity of electric scooters in cities.
In recent years, electric scooters have experienced a series of innovation and updates. One of the most significant is the improvement of intelligence and portability. Modern electric scooters are generally equipped with intelligent control system and mobile phone APP connection function, which can realize remote control, location tracking, power monitoring and other functions, improving the user experience. At the same time, the folding design of the electric scooter has been improved, making it more portable and portable, and convenient for users to carry and store on different occasions.
In addition, the safety of electric scooters has also been improved. The new electric scooter is equipped with more advanced braking systems, protective equipment and lighting systems to improve the safety during riding and reduce the risk of accidents. Some electric scooters also have waterproof and dust-proof functions, increasing their applicability in different environments. In addition, the powertrain of electric scooters is also constantly innovating. Traditional electric scooters mostly use lithium batteries as the power source, but with the development of technology, some electric scooters began to try other clean energy sources, such as solar energy, fuel cells, to reduce environmental pollution and improve energy efficiency.
