Gogoro Smartscooter
The Gogoro Smartscooter is an electric scooter developed by Gogoro and marketed as the G1 Aluminum Liquid Cooled Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor.[1] It relies on the Gogoro Energy Network as its power replenishment source.[2]
The scooter design integrates sensors that collect information such as speed, energy consumption and levels, system failures, as well as scooter falls. The information is relayed to the Gogoro Energy Network and presented to riders via Gogoro mobile apps compatible with Android and IOS smartphones. The Gogoro mobile app also allows for customization of certain settings such as lighting and sound profiles.
Gogoro Scooter models[edit]
The Gogoro Smartscooter has been marketed with multiple models grouped into several different series. The 1 Series was a retronym applied after the 2 Series was introduced in 2017. The 3 Series was aimed at the mid-priced market upon its introduction in 2019, but it was replaced in that market segment by the more affordable Viva Mix, introduced in 2021;[3] the Viva XL uses the 3 Series chassis rather than the Viva Mix. The Viva was Gogoro's lowest-priced Smartscooter when it was introduced in 2019, and Gogoro have since introduced an even more affordable model, the JEGO, in 2024. Between those dates, Gogoro have introduced the CrossOver series, which they bill as a "2-wheeled SUV", and the flagship Pulse, on model-specific chassis.
