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.
Le Peugeot e-Vivacity a été introduit vers 2012 en tant que l'un des premiers scooters électriques d'un grand fabricant européen, s'appuyant sur le succès du scooter à essence Vivacity original. Elle s'est distinguée par l'introduction de la mobilité électrique sur le segment des navetteurs urbains sous la marque bien établie Peugeot Scooters. Le modèle a contribué à positionner Peugeot parmi les premiers sur le marché des deux-roues électriques en Europe, bien qu'il soit resté un produit de niche en raison de son autonomie limitée et de son coût relativement élevé par rapport aux équivalents essence.

Ce que les acheteurs doivent savoir
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.

Évaluation d'un acheteur d'occasion
"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.
