What makes NIU’s electric scooter so unique?
The NIU e-scooter stands out. It’s a unique vehicle on its own, not merely a copy of an existing brand. Much attention has been paid to quality, design, speed and safety. For example, every NIU electric scooter is equipped with a high-quality electric Bosch motor. And the NIU battery pack utilizes Panasonic battery cells - the same battery that is used by Tesla. Moreover, NIU’s electric scooters hold numerous features and gadgets that ensure a ride you won’t forget. Every time.
Carefree driving with Cruise Control
Lock the speed, let go of the throttle and your NIU electric scooter takes over. With Cruise Control, your e-scooter continues to drive at your chosen speed, without your interference.
This feature is specifically useful when driving straight ahead for a longer period of time. As soon as you turn the throttle again, or apply the brakes, Cruise Control switches itself off.
Never lose your e-scooter with GPS
We’ve all been there. You park your bike or scooter somewhere and when you come back, you can’t find it anywhere. Fortunately, with NIU’s electric scooters, this issue belongs to the past. Thanks to the GPS feature in the NIU app you’re always able to find your NIU e-scooter back in seconds.
Receive notifications in case of theft
The last thing you want is for your new NIU electric scooter to be stolen. When someone with malicious intent comes near your scooter, you’ll receive a notification on your phone. The NIU app warns you with an alarm when someone might move the electric NIU scooter.
Flashing lights turn off automatically
Do you sometimes forget to turn off your flashing light while driving? Often it’s not that big of a deal, but things could get dangerous when another driver thinks you’re about to turn right while you’re actually driving straight ahead. Luckily the flashing lights of your NIU e-scooter turn off automatically when the scooter notices that you’ve made a turn.
Always clearly visible with 360° LED lighting
You don’t need to worry about not being noticable in the dark. Thanks to the 360 degrees Halo of light around all NIU electric scooters, you’re extra visible, no matter the weather conditions. And it looks super cool.
In addition, the headlights of the NIU e-scooter are equipped with LED daytime running lights. This makes you optimally visible during the day as well.
Safe braking thanks to advanced braking system
Thanks to the disc brake on both the front and the rear wheel, you can be sure that you’ll come to a safe stop when braking.
Furthermore, the electric NIU scooter is equipped with an Electronic Braking System. This system ensures that the battery is recharged during braking. In some models, up to 6% is recycled!
Start your NIU e-scooter from 50 meters away
Save time driving away by simply pressing the button on your key to start the e-scooter. In other words, ride your electric NIU scooter with the key still in your pocket! This feature is called ‘key ignition’. You start the e-scooter from 50 meters away.
Charge the battery anywhere
You don’t need to find a charging station to charge your NIU electric scooter. All models are equipped with a removable Panasonic lithium battery. Disconnect the battery from the NIU e-scooter and charge it whenever and wherever it suits you.
Thanks to the USB portal it’s possible to charge your phone while driving. Quite useful right?
The different NIU e-scooters in a nutshell
Which NIU e-scooters are actually available? Well, a lot! Large, small, for one or two people, there is a model for everyone.
So we can imagine you might wonder “which e-scooter is right for me?”. To help you make the perfect choice, we have listed the models we sell at Voltes here below.
The NIU MQI series: e-scooter with a beautiful design
If details matter to you, you will like the MQI series. Of all models available, NIU MQI pays the most attention to design. The MQI even won an award for it - the Red Dot City Award in 2017.
The main difference between the NIU MQI series and its big brother the NQI series, is in the weight and size of the electric NIU scooter. The NIU MQI is smaller and lighter, plus it has a more defined and revolutionary look.
The MQi is available in 3 versions: the MQi-1, MQi+ Sport and MQi GT.

The NIU NQI series: spacious, comfortable electric scooter
Do you prefer to drive around the city with 2 people? And do you feel more comfortable on a somewhat larger, sturdy e-scooter?
Then get to know the big brother of the MQI, the NQI series. These NIU electric motor scooters are designed in such a way that you’re able to take someone with you on the back. The co-driver places his or her feet on the folding footrests. This is also possible with the MQI, but with the NQI there’s just a lot more space.
A special model in the list is the NIU NQI Cargo. Delivery boxes can be installed on the back of the e-scooter. This way you transport meals with ease.
The number of watts of the motors varies from 1500 watt (NQi Sport) to no less than 3100 watt (NQi GTS). If you want, you can reach a top speed of no less than 70 km/h with the NQi GTS!
