I am honestly love to go green.
But going green with this scooter seems expensive.
Saving a lot for the usage is a joke because you paid it in advance.
Where is the savings there?
My Piaggio X9-200 Evo gets me 25 Km per liter.
Big underseat compartment and big rear box.
Plus 3 small compartment in front.
I bring my tools, laptop, exrra clothing, rain coat, extra helmet for friends who love to back ride with me and water or cooled drinks to be hook in front compartments.
Zeco is the first zero emission vehicle in singapore THAT REQUIRES A DRIVING LICENSE.
I love going green like Gilbert E. Ornedo, but there must be some real advantage or $savings for the people who choose to use it.
Let me throw in some facts:
-A brand new class 2B bike only cost 3 to $7k
-A 2nd hand version 500 to $3k.
-A new electric bicycle cost which has almost same capabilities (range and speed) cost 1 to $3K and it does not require driving license.
-A 2nd hand electric bicycle cost 500 to $1k
Furthermore,
-For existing motorbike riders, Zeco range is only about 20 to 30% of their bikes and majority of bikers stay in HDB which makes the recharging more of a hassle.
-For existing electric riders, Zeco price is at least double to triple that of their bicycles and they must also spend time obtaining a motor liciense. I observe more of these riders are older folk so it’s almost impossible to complete process.
Therefore i see no monetary incentives or real advantage for existing commuters make a switch to your scooters.
Is your company mission statement poise to make the world a greener place? Are your target market the masses or just the richer tech yuppies? Do you have enough budget to stay in this business for 10, 20 years till you overturn the current trend of using petroleum for vehicles?
Just speaking my mind, if you don’t mind :)

Good Product
The speed of your scooter is consider very slow in the electric scooter world. Zero electric bike can easily do 80km/h , there are many others can do much faster then 80km/h, further more your scooter for battery in this world , every one is using a lithium to run. Seal lead battery is very bad for the enviroment. SGD6900, for the price, i can see you will easily make a good handsome profit. For the starting to sell that kind of price, i think… it is impossible to see a potential buyer. except those guys are really TOO RICH with is pocket , maybe he will buy one from you.
