Thanks to its intuitive driving, this scooter can be used easily by everyone.

Electric scooters are an efficient mode of transport. After all, when being offered a slicker and speedier alternative to walking, who wouldn’t be tempted to invest?

• Setup and design
  

The Ornii Ariane 2 electric scooter does not require assembly out of the box. 

In the box, you’ll find a charger and user manual (only french language).

To charge it, you simply connect the supplied charger to its charging port.

Aside from turning the electric scooter on, the power button below the display serves two other functions. Pressing it once toggles the headlight on and off. The other function is to switch riding modes.

The scooter is set to Eco mode by default, which reaches a top speed of 6-8 km/h, but double-pressing the power button switches you into Drive Mode 15-18km/h and doing again gets you to Sports Mode 20-25km/h.

The thing that impressed me most is the speed on the climbs. I'm 50kg and the speed on the climbs was 23km/h.

There is a Cruise Control – maintains a constant speed for you automatically when it detects you riding at the same speed for an extended period. This is a lovely addition when you ride longer distances, as you can take your thumb off the throttle.

The scooter also has regenerative braking, putting the motor into reverse when you gently touch the brake lever, slowly putting power back into the motor when as you come to a gradual halt. You should be careful to avoid slipping if the surface you’re riding on is smooth or wet, though, because the scooter’s tires are slick. In fact, it’s a good idea to start out in the gentler Eco Mode until you’ve mastered the basics of accelerating, stopping and making tight turns.

Having three different riding modes makes a big difference when it comes to finding the right balance between speed and battery performance.

It’s also worth being mindful that the 36V, 12.8Ah battery takes around 8 hours to fully charge.

Another feature we were pleasantly surprised about is the minimal motor sound while riding. Of course, there’s the usual hum, but it soon fades into the background as you get accustomed to the scooter. The Ariane 2 is so discreet that I had to use the bell to alert people walking ahead of me a few times. The sound does get a little more noticeable when tackling inclines, but again, it’s not anything you wouldn’t expect apart from the stronger battery pulling its muscle for you.
Everything is perfect for this price. The only negative thing is the weight. I didn't feel comfortable to carry 12kg for more than 100m. Clearly, this is a problem for almost every electric scooter. You need to consider it before buying it. At this point I made 600km. My workplace is at a 4 km distance from my home and I enjoy using this electric scooter. 

Tell me more about your experience with an electric scooter. Also, you can ask me for information about this model and how to change the posterior tire!
