In this, you get a 60 V 45 Ah polymer lithium battery; one battery gets fully charged in just 3.5 hours, and with this battery pack you get a range of 100km.
Range :
If we talk about the range (mileage), then the Acer CPX Pro electric scooter claims a range of 100km in eco mode on a single charge, but if we talk about the real range, then you can get a range of 90 km+* while driving double seat in eco mode, but still the real range depends on the load and in which mode you are driving it and whether one person is driving the scooter or another person is riding with you behind; it depends on how much range (mileage) the Acer CPX Pro will give you.
Price :
If we talk about the price, then here you will have to spend more money because this electric scooter that Acer has launched in India is actually the CPX Pro electric scooter of Australia’s VMOTO brand, which Acer bought the manufacturing rights of and launched the Acer CPX Pro in India, as of now, the ex-showroom price of this electric scooter is ₹ 2,10,000/-*, which is a little higher according to the Indian market. I think on road price of this electric scooter around ₹ 2,50,000/-*

Opinion:
There is no doubt that the Acer CPX Pro electric scooter is a premium electric scooter. You get all the features in this electric scooter. The look of this electric scooter is also unique. This electric scooter looks futuristic from the front. Despite having a hub motor at the rear, if the alloy wheel needs to be removed, it can be easily separated from the hub motor by removing 4 bolts. The only drawback of this electric scooter is its price which is high according to the Indian market. Because three companies have to share profit with this electric scooter. From now onwards, instead of buying this electric scooter, people will probably think of buying river indie, abzo sigilo, e-Access.
