Introducing Yogo, the world’s first electric scooter that uses a fully detachable and portable lithium battery. Traditionally, electric motorbikes in the UK have used impractical fixed batteries which require the owner to run an extension cable from a mains electricity socket to the vehicles’ integrated battery or leave the vehicle unsecured to a charging station for up to 8 hours. For the first time owners can remove and charge their battery in one hour like a mobile phone in their own home, or even at work, making two-wheelers more suitable for busy lifestyles.

Drop&Swap Go a lot further for a lot less with the yogo’s state of the art battery, controller and motor system, giving you the equivalent of 1170 miles per gallon. Our unique removable batteries allow drivers to simply drop and swap empty batteries for full ones without the hassle of charge waiting times. Great for companies on the move.
Plug&play Simply remove the battery, plug in to any three pinned socket, charge and drive away at 40mp/h* with zero noise and zero fuss. The yogo gives commuters the freedom to charge anywhere in under 1 hour. *Available in two options, Yogo S (40mp/h and Yogo (30mp/h)
Thinking outside the box Why limit yourself to scarce charging points or ground floor charging through an extension lead? Removable drop and swap batteries allow charging from any three pinned socket giving commuters who live on higher floors more freedom to charge by simply taking the power to the power source. Charge on the go in less than 30 minutes* with detachable, light weight and ultra rapid charger units that fit neatly into a rear storage compartment. Go further at the flick of a switch with econogo’s sureswitch range, a mechanism that doubles the range by flipping between battery modules. *25 minutes 80% charge, 60 minutes 100% charge
Reducing costs The Yogo’s efficient and robust motor, controller and battery system replace moving parts with static parts, reducing the cost of servicing and maintenance. To fully charge an econogo battery pack costs between 5 and 10 pence, which in mpg terms equates to around 6% of the fuel cost of an average petrol scooter. Add in the road tax, and buying a yogo can save the average commuter £400* a year and the average delivery company** over £1700 a year in running costs.

Servicing All of our products are warranted for 24 months and are subject to a 12 months complimentary service. Expect to get around 2500 charges from your econogo battery pack with deeper discharge cycles and reduced charge times. Smaller, compact and intelligent modular systems mean reduced servicing and maintenance costs.
Applications Econogo employs the latest high-end lithium technology, creating new and exciting ways of battery interfacing that enables us to expand in to different sectors across a variety of applications.
Green The yogo emits none of the air pollutants (carbon monoxide, hydrocarbons and other particulate matter) produced by conventional scooters. Our lithium cell recycling policy further extends our commitment to the environment.
Technology econogo harnesses developments in lithium phosphate compounds and looks at newer ways to interface with that technology to create a brand that challenges and surpasses the most sophisticated petrol systems without sacrificing usability and design. Our intelligent battery management hub works with the Delta Q charge system to monitor on-board voltage distribution and allow for rapid charging and equalizing of the cells. At a quarter of the weight of its lead acid counterpart, development and research into lithium compounds has brought us ways to maximize the energy storage performance and reduce size and weight. Perhaps the most striking realization of these endeavours has enabled us to lead the way for new modular systems in electric vehicles which will revolutionise the way we commute and charge.
Security Security is inherent in the removable battery system as removing the battery immobilises the bike. In 2011, the yogo will come with our patented remote locking system.
