The Hippo is built for riders who want a full-featured scooter without the bulk of a heavy-duty model. A 500-watt motor, 10 mph top speed, and 31 miles of range — with front and rear suspension, front and rear drum brakes, a lockable rear storage compartment, under-seat storage, and a front basket. LED headlights, tail lights, turn signals, and a license plate light round out a scooter that's ready for daily outdoor use right out of the box.
