Dual suspension for smoother rides

With the Xiaomi Electric Scooter 5 Max, Xiaomi has, among other things, taken a look at the chassis and improved the suspension system. A double hydraulic suspension at the front and a double suspension at the rear absorb shocks and promise a smooth ride, even on cobblestones or uneven paths.

The 10-inch tubeless tires contribute to stability and minimize the risk of flat tires. In addition, the 909 cm² pedal surface offers more stability, while the 1.272 mm high handlebars enable an ergonomic posture.

Powerful engine with intelligent energy management

The 400 watt hub motor achieves a peak output of 1000 watts with fast acceleration and masters gradients of up to 22%. The top speed is limited to 25 km/h in line with road regulations. The driving behavior can be flexibly adjusted using three driving modes (Walking Mode, Standard Mode, Sports Mode).

The 48V battery promises a range of up to 60 km. Intelligent energy recovery uses the kinetic energy generated during braking to extend the battery life. The charging process takes 3 hours with a quick charger and 9 hours with a standard charger.

TCS traction control and smart lighting

The TCS traction control system provides better grip on wet roads by using a gyroscope and control software to prevent wheel spin.

Security features also include:

  •  Double brakes: front drum brake and rear electric braking system for quick and controlled stopping.
  •  IPX5 water protection for the scooter housing and IPX6 water resistance for the battery, so that rain or splashes of water cannot harm the scooter.
  •  Smart parking on slopes: A special function allows parking on slopes without stopping the scooter.
  •  Intelligent LED lighting: The front and rear lights turn on automatically when it gets dark, while new ambient light strips improve visibility and safety.

  • Localization of the scooter with a "search" function that triggers light and sound signals
