Of all the electric mopeds out there, Juiced’s design is one of the better models for pedaling comfort. I can easily break into 30+ mile territory if I add some pedaling, which is easy on the Scorpion X. That’s theoretically possible in the lowest pedal assist setting, but I find that real-world riding with a variety of throttle and pedal-assist action lands me somewhere around half of that range. The company claims a max range of 55 miles (88 km).

That’s 15% more battery, or around 15% more range. Juiced has standardized around 52V batteries, but has recently increased its minimum pack size from 13 Ah to 15 Ah, boosting the capacity from 676 Wh to 780 Wh. The Scorpion X gets a number of other upgrades too. Juiced must have taken that feedback to heart, but the company didn’t stop there. When I reviewed the original Scorpion last year my main takeaway was “It’s a great bike but it feels like the power doesn’t live up to its badass design.” The extra power is nice, don’t get me wrong.

Extras: Moped seat, included rear rack, included fenders, large LED headlight and tail/brake light, advanced matrix LCD battery meter, kickstand, USB charging, Shimano 8-speed drivetrain.

Rear suspension: Swingarm with dual adjustable spring coilover shocks.

Front suspension: Hydraulic fork with adjustable pre-load, compression, and lockout.

Brakes: Hydraulic disc brakes (180 mm rotors).Wheels: 20 inches with 4.25-inch fat tires, mag-style cast wheels.Battery: 52V 15Ah 780Wh (removable and lockable).Range: Up to 55 miles (88 km) on pedal-assist or closer to half that on throttle.

Motor: 750W “nominal” (claimed 1.8 kW peak) RetroBlade rear hub motor.

Then keep reading for even more perspective on the Scorpion X. To see the bike in action, check out my video review below. Juiced will tell you that it puts out 750W of continuous power, but the peak power really breaks into the low four digits.īetween the added power and other upgrades, the Scorpion X is sure to help Juiced maintain its spot near the top of the pack when it comes to moped-style electric bikes.

The Scorpion X is the little brother to the HyperScorpion, so it doesn’t get to enjoy the full 2,000 watts of power, but it still receives a nice (and quite noticeable) power boost over the original Scorpion from last year. That motor is designed to put out close to 2,000 watts of peak power when installed in the even more extreme HyperScorpion e-bike. The Scorpion X inherits the RetroBlade motor co-developed by Juiced and Bafang. The Juiced Scorpion X recently replaced the original Scorpion moped-style electric bike and offers new upgrades to improve upon an already strong entry in the market.Ĭhief among the upgrades is the inclusion of a more powerful motor and a larger battery.
