What is this electric scooter?
The Pure Air has a design all in tubes of the most sympathetic. Its clean lines are rather elegant and Pure Electric takes care of the finishes of its machine. The scooter is robust and of good design and offers a reassuring impression of solidity once in hand. Every part is solid and perfectly assembled, from the kickstand to the handles. The latter, made of foam, are comfortable, but retain a little too much water in the event of rain. The deck has a very good grip in case of bad weather. Even in the rain, your feet won’t slip, and there’s enough room for a convenient and comfortable position. The Pure Air range is IP65 certified and is therefore designed to be water resistant.
In terms of lighting, a rear brake light, a front headlight and reflectors ensure you can see and be seen. Unless you’re riding at night, the lights do their job. The circular meter is easily readable even in direct sunlight. You can see the battery level, your speed, or the selected driving mode. On the driving side, the motor with a nominal power of 500 W offers good acceleration power. In S mode (the power mode) the Pure Air quickly reaches the regulatory 25 km/h. Even at full speed, the ride is pleasant and cornering is easy. The 17 kg of the scooter are well distributed.
At less than €400 is the Pure Air a good deal?
This is a very good deal for a quality scooter from a reliable brand. Who says spring says rain. Driving a two-wheeler or a scooter in rainy weather is always a challenge in itself, it all depends on the machine you are on. On wet ground, the tires of the Pure Air drain water well. The rubber holds the road well and the braking offers good response, including on wet roads. In dry weather, driving is flexible and reassuring. Despite the lack of suspension, the 10-inch tires absorb a fair amount of shock and vibration.
If you want to avoid bumpy roads and do part of the journey by public transport, be aware that the Pure Air does not fold easily. The screw system is indeed long and tedious and does not make you want to fold and unfold the machine more than necessary. As for autonomy, maximum speed, count between 15 and 20 km, depending on your weight and the weather. If you have more than 15 km to cover per day, it is essential to plan a recharge during the day so as not to have any unpleasant surprises. It takes just under 5 hours to recharge the 280 Wh battery at 36 V.
