Overview

Introducing the 2013 Evolve Zinc XR, a standout in the electric scooter category that perfectly marries cutting-edge technology with practical urban commuting. Priced at an accessible US$ 4,600, the Zinc XR is designed for riders seeking an eco-friendly alternative without sacrificing style or performance. With its sleek silver finish and modern aesthetics, this scooter not only captures attention but also reflects Evolve's commitment to sustainable mobility. As cities continue to prioritize green transport solutions, the Zinc XR positions itself as an appealing option for both new riders and seasoned enthusiasts looking to make a conscious choice. Under the hood, the Zinc XR is powered by a robust electric engine that delivers 2.01 horsepower (1.5 kW), providing a top speed of 64.4 km/h (40.0 mph). The automatic gearbox adds to the simplicity of riding, allowing you to focus on the journey rather than shifting gears. With a lightweight body weighing in at just 103.9 kg (229.0 pounds), this scooter offers an impressive power-to-weight ratio of 0.0194 HP/kg, ensuring zippy acceleration and agile handling around city streets. Whether maneuvering through traffic or cruising down the boulevard, the Zinc XR delivers a smooth and responsive ride, further enhanced by its telescopic front suspension and hydraulic coil-over rear suspension that absorb bumps effortlessly. What sets the Evolve Zinc XR apart is its thoughtful design and essential features tailored for urban riders. Equipped with a powerful 100ah LiFe PO4 battery, it boasts an impressive range of up to 110 miles on a single charge, making it ideal for daily commutes or leisurely rides. The 4-hour recharge time, compatible with both 110v and 240v outlets, adds a layer of convenience for busy riders. Safety is prioritized with reliable single disc brakes on both the front and rear, delivering confident stopping power. The compact dimensions—1,880 mm in length, 635 mm in width, and 1,143 mm in height—ensure that this scooter is easy to park and maneuver in tight spaces. **
