Backfire M8 Rover

The Backfire M8 Rover is a powerful and robust electric scooter, designed for riders looking for something more capable than a basic urban model, especially for long rides, slopes or demanding routes. It features dual 1000 W motors, a 48 V 20 Ah / 960 Wh battery with Samsung cells, a claimed range of 72 km and an advertised top speed of up to 55 km/h. With 10 x 2.75-inch tubeless tyres, dual suspension, disc brakes with electronic braking, a colour LED display, a full lighting system with turn signals, NFC, GPS, IP55 resistance and a maximum load of 150 kg, it offers a stable and solid package. Weighing approximately 31 kg, it is a sturdy and confidence-inspiring scooter, but not especially light or designed to be carried by hand every day.
