AERO SKY Z2 (E10) Electric Scooter Review
For those seeking an electric scooter that can go the extra mile, the AERO SKY Z2 (E10) deserves serious consideration. Priced at 1,800 AED, this heavy-duty e-scooter backs up its premium cost with an impressive mix of long range, high speeds, and rugged capabilities.
One of the Z2's standout features is its incredible range - up to an impressive 40km on a single charge of the high-capacity battery pack. Combined with a blistering top speed of 45 km/h, this scooter is a legitimate option for longer commutes across the city.
The sturdy 10-inch pneumatic dirt tires provide great grip and shock absorption to tackle rougher urban terrain. And with a hefty 150kg maximum load, the Z2 can easily accommodate heavier riders.
When it comes time to slowing things down, the AERO Z2 has you covered with dual mechanical disc brakes providing strong, confident stopping power. An array of bright LED lights also boost visibility at night, including headlights, turn signals, and a tail light.
On a recent test ride, I was immediately impressed by the Z2's acceleration off the line, thanks to its potent 800W motor. The thumb throttle provided ultra-responsive speed control as I zipped up to the upper reaches of its top speed with ease.
While that top speed definitely gets your adrenaline pumping, the large pneumatic tires and dual suspension did a great job smoothing out bumps and cracks along the way for a comfortable ride experience. The large, textured footpads offered a planted, sturdy stance. And the dual disc brakes inspired confidence with their strong, progressive braking feel.
In addition to its barnstorming performance, the Z2 also packs in premium features like an intuitive LED display, cruise control mode, and a USB port for charging devices on the go. Build quality feels robust from top to bottom.
My only real critique is that at 24kg, the Z2 is quite heavy compared to more portable electric scooters. While it does have a folding mechanism for easier carrying and storage, you'll definitely feel the heft if you need to lug it around for extended periods. But if you're seeking a high-performance electric scooter that can chew up long-distance commutes with ease, that weight trade-off may be well worth it.
There's no getting around the fact that the AERO Z2's premium 1,800 AED price point puts it towards the higher end of the consumer electric scooter market. But you are getting an incredibly well-equipped and high-performance machine for the money.
For urban commuters prioritizing blistering top speeds and maximum range over ultraportability, the AERO SKY Z2 absolutely deserves a spot on your shortlist. It's a beast on the streets that will let you go distances many other electric scooters can't match.
