eveon Flora

Motor and battery

The Flora is the entry point to eveon’s current line-up. It uses an 800-watt BLDC motor with a quoted top speed of 45 km/h. Its 60V 32Ah graphene battery has a claimed range of 70–80 km. eveon says a full charge uses about 1.3 units of electricity, the lowest figure it quotes for any model, which on paper makes the Flora very cheap to run. eveon describes the Flora as designed for everyday riders who want smart technology, comfort and safety. It does not publish a charging time for this model.

Size and practicality

eveon has not released the Flora’s dimensions, weight or seat height. It rides on 10-inch tubeless tyres mounted on alloy rims, which eveon says offer good grip, low maintenance and puncture resistance. It brakes with a front disc and a rear drum. A side stand sensor adds safety, and reverse gear makes it easier to manoeuvre in tight spaces. In our view, the Flora’s lower power and 45 km/h top speed suit short city trips, school and college runs, and errands on quieter roads better than fast main roads.

Equipment

For the price, the Flora is well equipped. The single version comes with:

Keyless on/off, a digital meter, the side stand sensor, reverse gear, cruise control and an anti-theft alarm system. eveon says the alarm triggers if someone moves the scooter without permission.

The front disc and rear drum brakes and the alloy-rimmed tubeless tyres complete the package. eveon does not list a swappable battery or regenerative braking.

Warranty

The motor is covered for 24 months, and the battery and controller for 18 months. That is in line with eveon’s other graphene-battery scooters, but shorter than the 36-month battery warranty on the LFP-powered N7 Max and N8. Ask the dealer to confirm what the battery warranty covers before you buy.

Should you buy it?

Our opinion: the Flora is a sensible buy for new riders and light users. It has the lowest purchase price in eveon’s range and still includes useful features like cruise control, reverse gear and an alarm. Its claimed range covers most daily city routes. The N7 costs Rs 9,000 more and has a stronger 1,000-watt motor, but it has drum brakes at both ends. In our view, the Flora’s front disc makes it the better value for slow city riding. If you want a longer battery warranty, the N7 Max at Rs 189,000 is the next step up.
