Why the Speedway III Might the Right eScooter for You

Comparing the Speedway III to the Mini4:

Since first offering the Speedway Mini4, from September last year, it has gone through several iterations of improvement, with demand constantly outstripping the available supply. We had held back on increasing the volume of the Mini4 until there was absolutely confidence that all of the issues had been worked out. The next step up from the Mini4 was the SW IV, although it had a lot more to offer, is more depending/reliable, but at double the price there was a market gap for a more economical version of this tried & proven platform, that has now being fulfilled by the SW III: 

  • More Powerful Motor: this motor is rated for 20% more sustained power than the Mini4 & up to 60% more peak power (1600W max) to meet the needs of extreme acceleration, or hill climbing. 
  • Larger 10″ Wheels: the SW III has 10″ diameter & 2.5″ wide air tires on both the front & rear Wheels; this compares with the Mini4 that has 8″x 2″ sold tires.
  • Front/Rear Disc Brakes: the front & rear disc brakes on the SW III/IV provide it an advantage to the Mini4’s single rear drum brake for stopping force. Also, thanks to the more powerful motor, the complementary regenerative braking system of the motor assists the bring the scooter to a rapid stop.
  • Easier Maintenance: changing a tire has been simplified; by unfastening a couple screws on the Wheel, the tire assembly easily slides out.   
  • Better Ride Quality:  the SW’s III longer deck, front spring suspension, & larger air tires all contribute to make the SW series scooter a less fatiguing ride over long distances.  
  • Improved Folding Mechanism: folding/unfolding the latch mechanism on the Mini4 requires a specific sequence of, 1)  applying the brake lever to relieve weight on the latch, 2) pushing down with your heal on the lever, 3) then pulling back to close the handle, it can be challenge initially… The folding mechanism on the SW series has been completely redesigned to make it practically fool-proof, with no forward/back play in the handlebar.   
  • Front Headlight, Turn Signals & Horn: uniquely on the Dualtron/Speedway Scooters, the SW III/IV has a front headlight that’s feed off the main battery. On the reverse, when you apply the brake lever, a series of LEDs on the rear bumper alerts traffic behind that you’ll be slowing down. You also have a rear set of left-right of indicator lights. On the same control area is a horn button. 

Speedway/Dualtron Product Features & Specifications

Comparing the Differences Between the Speedway III & IV

This particular specification of the Speedway III was created for eWheels to fit in between the Mini4 Pro & the Speedway IV. The key requirements which we felt were most import to our Customers, were 1) an effective range of between 25-30 miles, 2) highly reliable & low maintenance, 3) net weight under 45lb, 4) priced below $1000. To meet these ends, the SW III was selected with a custom battery pack to meet these objectives.

Front Lighting:

While the SW III has a mounted front headlight attached to the handle-bar stem, it does not have the integrated deck running lights which the SW IV has. The main advantage to these is the cool visual effect, rather than providing a suitable amount of lighting for riding in low light conditions.

Rear Shock Suspension:

The primary enhancement when the SW IV was released were the adjustable rear shocks. These make the SW IV more effective over extremely rough terrain, providing a smoother, less jarring ride. Although the SW III lacks this rear suspension, the front sprung suspension & inflatable air tires do a reasonably decent job at dampening most of the imperfections on a daily commute. The general ride experience is a big step up from the Mini4 & other small diameter  eScooters. 

Rear Braking Lights & Turning Signals:

At the back of Scooter the visual differences between the two models is most apparent: the turn signals on the SW III are placed on either side of the brake light, while the IVs are placed further up front, at the tail-end of the running boards, making them visible from an oblique angle—the indicators on the III are visible only directly behind, which make sense.

The Benefits of the LG Li-ion Battery Pack

Battery Lithium Ion vs Lithium Polymer

Across the Speedway/Dualtron product line, the battery pack represents more than half of the production costs of the finished eScooter; therefore, what type of battery is selected for a particular model, is one of the most important decisions the Manufacturer-Distributor has to make.

Until now, all the Speedway Electric Scooters were fitted with a Lithium Polymer battery from a reputable Chinese manufacturer; however, from our experience with selling several hundred of Mini4s, it has been found that the battery defect rate averages about 8%, on an annualized basis—majority were out-of-box defects. There are some benefits of this technology, like a lower Wh/$$ cost & higher volumetric/weight densities.  

In our continuous efforts to provide our Customers with the best possible purchase value, reduced downtime, & the greatest product longevity, we are extremely pleased to announce an agreement Speedway to fit a tried & tested Li-ion battery across the Speedway product line, including the Mini4, Speedway IV, & now with the introduction of the Speedway III as well. 

The primary benefit to this LG Li-ion pack are: predicted to yield a 20% improvement on degradation (based on manufacturer cell cycle data), improved safety, robustness, & can be repurposed at the end of the Scooter’s useful life—there is a strong secondary market for this type of battery. This pack is composed of the LG MH1 3.2Ah cell, configured as 14S4P—14 cells in series & 4 parallel—for a total of 56 cells in the pack.
