The VMAX VX8 is the perfect choice if you live upstairs or love the premium look of real carbon fiber. Weighing in at just 34.2 lbs thanks to its ultra-light carbon frame, the VX8 is the lightest VMAX electric scooter ever made. Easy to carry, it&';s also an unstoppable hill climber and no lightweight when it comes to performance. Important: Unlike silent direct-drive scooters, the VX8 features a robust geared motor. You&&';;ll experience a mechanical "whir" during acceleration and a highly responsive throttle. If you prioritize raw hill-climbing torque over total silence, you&&';;ll love the VX8.

The V-Torque Gear-drive motor delivers 1400 W of peak power, hitting top speeds of 21mph and scaling hills as steep as 38% thanks to its V-Core Gear motor controller. Despite its light weight it still delivers long range covering up to 40 miles on a single charge. Monitor your speed and charge day or night with the gorgeous new 3.5" TFT display with V-Sense light sensor technology, that brightens the display automatically, and turns on your lights at night.
