Ausom F1 Max

What the Ausom F1 Max is built for

The Ausom F1 Max is an electric kick scooter for short trips and the last mile of a commute.

It has a 3.8 kW peak motor and a top speed of 45 mph (72 km/h).

It carries a 1,248 Wh battery and a stated range of up to 62 miles (100 km) on a charge.

The Ausom F1 Max carries up to 331 lb (150 kg) including the rider.

In the United States the Ausom F1 Max sells for $1,489, above the median of $530 across 163 electric scooters with a US price, among the premium models. That is $1 per watt-hour of battery.

Where the Ausom F1 Max may be ridden

Most European countries cap electric scooters at 20 to 25 km/h on public roads; the Ausom F1 Max's top speed of 45 mph (72 km/h) is above that, so it may be ridden at full speed only on private land there. In the United Kingdom privately owned e-scooters may not yet be ridden on public roads, and Germany requires a type-approved model with an insurance plate.

Ausom F1 Max safety certification

The brand's listing for the Ausom F1 Max does not state a UL 2272 or EN 17128 certification. New York City allows only e-scooters certified to UL 2272 to be sold or rented there; ask the seller for the certificate before buying.
