Fair report from the EICMA 2006, all about 45km/h limited scooters. Further special part about the huge fair representation of Vectrix Maxi Scooters and general part.
| E-Max booth on the EICMA 2006
|
| 
|
|
|
E-Max presents 3 new scooters in the EICMA. All in the same design, only the battery technic and maximal engine power is different at the new models.
|
| Scooter E-Max 140 L Lithium power
|
| 
|
|
|
Regardless Pizza service or scooter to rent service on a holiday island, this is the right scooter for the professional continuous use, when daily up to 160km have to be driven.
|
| E-Max 50 Volt 90 Ah Lithium Batterie
|
| 
|
|
|
14 pieces 90 Ah cells from Thundersky make 4.5 kWh capacity and over 160km range. That's enough to be the electric scooter with the biggest capacity on the EICMA 2006.
|
| Wires for charge balancing
|
| 
|
|
|
Beside the thick wires are at each battery cell 2 thin wires to the battery management box. By ths box, each call is checked and the charge balanced.
|
| E-Max battery controller
|
| 
|
|
|
In the grey cable are 28 wires, from each cell 2, to the battery controller which is located in the frot part of the scooter just after the fron wheel.
|
| E-Max 110 S Silicon
|
| 
|
|
|
4 pieces 60 Ah Silicone batteries are giving the E-Max 110 more range, but also an increase of the weight to 175 kg. 55 kg less, but 50% more battery capacity has the 140L.
|
| From the wheel hub engine to the rim engine
|
| 
|
|
|
This does not look like a wheel hub engine any more. All rim engine meets more the reality. 19 kg including the tire is the weight of the rear wheel.
|
| E-Max 90S instruments
|
| 
|
|
|
Much more information than at the previous model. Day odometer, Amperemeter are on the big porthole. This is typicall for all new E-Max models.
|
| Speedquad booth
|
| 
|
|
|
Suddenly, I stand in front of the since several month announced new models from E-Max. But it is not the E-Max but the speedquad booth.
|
| E-Max S aka Speedquad D
|
| 
|
|
|
No, this is not my long time test vehicle E-Max S, but a Speedquad D. All checked details show, it's the same vehicle.
|
| E-Max comfort aka speedquad A
|
| 
|
|
|
It seems E-Max has abandoned the accounded new models and concentrates only towards own new developments.
|
| Model A rear
|
| 
|
|
|
Compared to the 10'' rims at the E-Max S has the model A 12'' rims. The seat is so much longer that 2 persons can have a comfortable ride.
|
| Model A instruments
|
| 
|
|
|
Compared with the E-Max S, there is additional a digital clock and a consumption display by colored LEDs.
|
| Model A rear disk brakes
|
| 
|
|
|
Compared to the rear drum brake at the E-Max S is here a hydraulic disc brake. Good at a vehicle with so much weight on the rear axle.
|
| E-Max classic aks Speedquad B
|
| 
|
|
|
Only at the from E-Max announced classic model is a difference. It has only a 1500 instead of 2000 W engine and less batteries as a cheap entrance model.
|
| Electric scooter Speedquad C
|
| 
|
|
|
Double headlights, disk brakes also rear, foldable rest for the feet of the fellow passenger are the main differences to the Model D (aka E-Max S) and the model C.
|
| Model C rear
|
| 
|
|
|
Electric scooter model C from rear with folded out rest for the feet of the passenger.
|
| EICMA fair round trip through the halls
|
| 
|
|
|
Even on a motorcycle fair, it is not possible to drive in the halls with a gasoline scooter. Only electric vehicles had been underway in the halls.
