Solar-powered vehicles are shaping the future of environmentally friendly transportation. One of the latest additions to these innovative technologies is the Lightfoot electric scooter. Lightfoot is not only an environmentally friendly transportation vehicle, but also offers a practical alternative by solving the range problem with solar energy.
The most striking feature of Lightfoot is the 120-watt solar panels placed on both sides of its body. These panels give the scooter an extra range of up to 30 kilometers a day. One hour of exposure to sunlight on sunny days means a range increase of about 5 kilometers. In this way, the scooter parked in a sunny area can completely eliminate the need for charging for daily short-distance travel.
Environmentally Friendly Design with Solar Panels
Lightfoot offers a range of 60 kilometers on a single charge with its 48V/1.1 kWh lithium-ion battery and dual 750W brushless hub motors. It also saves energy while driving with its regenerative braking system. With a top speed capacity of 32 km/h, the scooter offers a safe and fast option for urban transportation.
The design of the scooter combines functionality and aesthetics. The cargo compartment in the body offers a storage space with a capacity of approximately 45 liters, and the solar panels on top of this area are designed to be heat-resistant, protecting the rider’s comfort. Users can monitor information such as battery level and speed on the waterproof 2.8-inch LCD touchscreen.
