The Ausom Electric Scooter Buying Guide: Which One Fits Your Life?
From daily commuting to light off-road fun and long-distance rides, this guide breaks down Ausom’s lineup in plain language so you can match your terrain, range needs, and budget. We explain what “commuter,” “all-rounder,” “power commuter,” and “long-hauler” actually mean, with real distances and everyday examples, so by the end you will know exactly which scooter is right for you.
VoltCentre is the leading marketplace for electric personal vehicles. We ship Ausom scooters free to Canada, the US, the EU, and the UK, and we back every purchase with manufacturer warranty and our in-house rider support team.
The Commuter: Ausom L1
What “commuter” means: You ride 5 to 12 km each way, typically 10 to 25 km round trip. Think home to work or campus, a grocery stop on the way back, predictable city streets, elevator access, and the occasional staircase.
Why it works: An 800 W rear hub reaches 45 km/h. The 48 V 15.6 Ah battery is rated up to 70 km. At 27.6 kg, it is the easiest to carry in this lineup. Dual mechanical discs with E-ABS, 10×2.75 inch tubeless tires, front and rear swing-arm suspension, IP54 electronics, and an NFC lock make it a sensible city package.
Choose this if: You want light, quick, uncomplicated transport for daily A to B with flexibility for a few stairs.
The Weekday-to-Weekend All-Rounder: Ausom L2 Max (Single-Motor)
What “all-rounder” means: Weekdays are 12 to 20 km each way, or 25 to 40 km round trip, and weekends include 30 to 60 km loops on waterfront paths, rail-trails, or light gravel.
Why it works: A 1,000 W motor with a 50 km/h ceiling pairs with a 48 V 20.8 Ah, about 998 Wh pack rated up to 90 km. Front and rear spring suspension and 10×3 inch tubeless tires raise comfort, dual discs with E-ABS improve control, and IP54 splash resistance keeps you rolling in light rain. Around 30 kg, it is still easy to roll and store.
Choose this if: You want comfort and range without stepping into dual motors, with enough battery to wander on the weekend.
The Power Commuter: Ausom L2 Max Dual
What “power commuter” means: Similar distances to the all-rounder, often 8 to 20 km each way, but with steep bridges, long ramps, quick merges, a heavier rider, or a loaded backpack. You want acceleration on tap and stronger braking.
Why it works: Dual 1,000 W hubs, 2,688 W peak, sharpen launches and hill climbs. Top speed reaches 65 km/h with rated range up to 90 km from the 48 V 20.8 Ah pack. ZOOM hydraulic discs with E-ABS, dual swing-arm suspension, and 10×3 inch puncture-resistant tubeless tires keep it composed on broken pavement and in busy traffic. IP54 electronics. About 33 kg.
Choose this if: You want confidence on hills and in traffic, or you are a bigger rider who values strong acceleration and braking.
The Long-Hauler, and Hill Crusher: Ausom DT2 Pro
What “long-hauler” means: You stack 30 to 50 km each way on busy days, or plan 60 to 100 km day trips with detours and hills. You want fewer charging stops and room to grow.
Why it works: Dual 1,100 W hubs reach 68 km/h and handle steep grades. The 52 V 23.4 Ah, about 1,216 Wh pack claims up to 114 km. Max load is 135 kg and net weight is 33.6 kg for a planted feel at speed. Dual swing-arm hydraulic damping, hydraulic discs with E-ABS, 10×3 inch tubeless tires, and dual-port charging complete the package.
Choose this if: You want maximum range and headroom, ride big elevation, or prefer to charge less often.

What is right for you depends on the distances you ride, the hills on your route, how often you carry or store the scooter, your weight and comfort preferences, and your budget. We have laid out the tradeoffs so you can match a model to your daily reality. If you are still unsure, choose the closest fit and start riding, you can fine tune with tires, stem height, and speed modes as you go.

Comfort, Safety, Weather
Braking and control: Every model pairs discs with electronic anti-lock braking. If you ride fast or steep, the hydraulic systems on L2 Max Dual and DT2 Pro are worth it.
Ride quality: Swing-arm suspension and tubeless rubber are standard. The wider 10×3 inch casings on Max and Pro frames tame cracked pavement and light gravel.
Wet days: IP54 electronics handle light rain and spray. Avoid immersion and pressure washing, dry components after wet rides, and keep tires at spec for predictable handling.
Range reality check: Results vary with rider weight, temperature, speed mode, tire pressure, and hills. Treat published ranges as best case in conservative modes.
