Peugeot E-vivacity
The Peugeot E-vivacity has a top speed of 45 km/h, produces ~4 hp (3 kW continuous rated output) and weighs ~95 kg. Motoryk rates it 6.5/10.
Der Peugeot e-Vivacity wurde etwa 2012 als einer der ersten Elektroroller eines großen europäischen Herstellers eingeführt und knüpfte an den Erfolg des ursprünglichen Vivacity-Benzinrollers an. Er zeichnete sich dadurch aus, dass er unter der etablierten Marke Peugeot Scooters Elektromobilität in das urbane Pendlersegment brachte. Das Modell trug dazu bei, Peugeot als Vorreiter auf dem Markt für elektrische Zweiräder in Europa zu positionieren, obwohl es aufgrund der begrenzten Reichweite und der im Vergleich zu Benzinmodellen relativ hohen Kosten ein Nischenprodukt blieb.

Was Käufer wissen sollten
Removable Battery Design
The e-Vivacity features a removable lithium-ion battery that can be charged indoors without needing access to a power outlet near the scooter. This is a major practical advantage for apartment dwellers or those without a garage.
Watch Battery Degradation
As with most early electric scooters, battery capacity can noticeably degrade after 3-5 years of use, reducing the claimed ~50km range. Always check the battery health and charge cycle count before buying used.
Steep Resale Depreciation
The e-Vivacity depreciates quickly due to the evolving electric scooter market and concerns about aging battery packs. This makes used examples affordable, but factor in potential battery replacement costs which can be significant.

Bewertung von gebrauchten Käufern
"A practical city runabout if range anxiety won't keep you awake."
$1,500-$3,500 usedThe e-Vivacity is Peugeot's stab at the electric scooter market, and used examples are genuinely tempting on price alone. Range is the honest conversation you need to have with yourself first — real-world figures of 25-30 miles per charge are common, and that's on a good day with flat roads. Battery degradation on older units is a legitimate concern, so always check the battery health before handing over any cash. Ask the seller for a full charge and watch the display carefully. Riding it is pleasant enough — smooth, quiet, and surprisingly nippy off the line for urban commuting. Build quality is acceptable Peugeot, meaning it's decent but not exceptional. The removable battery is a genuinely clever feature that makes apartment charging viable, which matters more than people admit. Where it falls apart is longer commutes and hills. It struggles on sustained inclines and the range anxiety becomes real fast. Parts availability can be patchy too, so factor that into your budget. Check charging port condition obsessively on used examples — they take abuse.
