1. Battery Age and Health: An older battery simply won't hold as much charge as it did when new
2. Riding Style: Aggressive Acceleration. high speed, frequent braking are all factors.
3. Terrain and Riding Conditions: Hills, Surfaces and headwinds should all be considerations.
4. Tire Pressure: Underinflated tires increase rolling resistance.
5. Rider Weight and Cargo: Carrying a heavier load (rider weight plus any bags or cargo) requires more energy to move.
6. Ambient Temperature: Extreme temperatures negatively impact battery performance.
7. Using High-Power Modes: Many scooters have different riding modes (e.g., Eco, Standard, Sport).
8. Constant Use of Accessories: Keeping powerful headlights, taillights, or other electronic accessories running.
9. Poor Maintenance: Besides tire pressure, other maintenance issues like dragging brakes or friction in the wheel bearings.
10. Battery Imbalance or Fault: In rare cases, there might be an internal issue with the battery itself, such as cell imbalance or a developing fault.
