When you hear the name Lamborghini, visions of sleek, powerful exotic supercars likely come to mind. But the iconic Italian brand has taken its high-performance DNA and injected it into a wholly different kind of machine - the AL EXT electric scooter. Currently available for 5,800 AED (down from 6,000 AED), this head-turning two-wheeled EV promises supercar thrills for the urban streets.

    From the moment you set eyes on the AL EXT, there's no mistaking its Lamborghini pedigree. Aggressive styling cues reminiscent of the Aventador and Huracán models adorn the scooter's aluminum alloy frame and body panels. The signature green-black-yellow color scheme keeps it distinctly on-brand as well.


    But the exotic flair goes beyond just looks. Little design touches like the LED headlights with integrated turn signals, raised fenders over the large tires, and sculpted foot platforms evoke a sense of premium quality and supercar inspiration.

    Aesthetics are one thing, but the AL EXT must also back it up with legitimate performance - and it does not disappoint. A potent 500W electric motor provides robust acceleration to reach the 25 km/h top speed with ease. And with a claimed 40km maximum range, you can zip around the city at full tilt for quite a while before recharging.


    The large 11-inch pneumatic tires and dual disc braking system (front and rear) work in tandem to provide stability and sure-footed stopping power even at higher speeds. Riders up to 120kg can confidently attack winding city streets and carve corners.


    While not quite as extreme as its four-wheeled counterparts, the AL EXT definitely delivers an energetic, lively riding experience full of zip and agility. It's a whole new kind of supercar thrill.

    For all its focus on exotic style and visceral performance, Lamborghini also imbued the AL EXT with plenty of premium practicality and user-friendly features.
The spacious bamboo deck provides a comfortable standing platform, while ergonomic hand grips and an intuitive LED display keep everything easily accessible. And despite its beefy 28.5kg construction, the folding mechanism allows the scooter to compact down for easier carrying and storage.


    Speaking of convenience, the AL EXT's 7-hour recharge time and 40km range provide stellar Battery endurance for urban duty. It's the perfect eco-friendly runaround for daily commutes or weekend jaunts around town.

 

    With pricing that pushes into the higher end of consumer electric scooters, the AL EXT is undoubtedly a premium product. But for devout Lamborghini fans and performance enthusiasts, the chance to own a bonafide product bearing that iconic badge at under 6,000 AED is downright attainable.


    And in typical Lamborghini fashion, you're getting far more than just a name and styling - the AL EXT delivers legitimate supercar spirit and thrills, just in a more sustainable and city-friendly package. It's an exotic like no other on two wheels.


    So if you've dreamed of that raging bull crest in your garage but lack the resources for a V12 Italian missile, this eye-catching, adrenaline-pumping urban scooter may just be the next best thing. Why settle for the ordinary?
