Electric scooter: Gogoro 3 promises up to 170 km of autonomy

Classified in the 125cc equivalent category, the Gogoro 3 has a top speed of 86 km / h and uses new battery technology.

Thanks to an overhaul, the Gogoro 3 contrasts with the looks of its predecessors. Made from recyclable polypropylene, it features improved scratch and impact resistance and features a new "all-LED" headlight technology on the front.

The two removable battery packs are based on new battery technology. In the 2170 format, they are provided by Panasonic, a Tesla Gigafactory partner. In its press release, Gogoro announces the power increase without specifying the number of kilowatt hours on board. In terms of autonomy, the manufacturer claims up to 170 kilometers with a charge.

Classified in category 125, the Gogoro is powered by an engine mounted directly to the rear wheel. Capable of developing power up to 6 kW and 180 Nm of torque, it provides autonomy of up to 83 km / h for the standard version and up to 86 km / h for the Plus version.

Starting with a system based on NFC technology, the Gogoro 3 has a large payload. Under the saddle, the useful volume reaches 26,5 liters. Ample storage space for two helmets.

From 2300 €

Focusing on urban and suburban environments, the Gogoro 3 should start selling in Taiwan within the next few weeks. In terms of price, the model is advertised for $ 2.555 (€ 2300) in the standard version and $ 2775 (€ 2500) in the Plus version.

At the moment we do not know if the model will be sold in Europe and when. A case to follow!
