Peugeot E-ludix Review

Used Buyer Review

The e-Ludix was Peugeot's early swing at electric urban commuting, and honestly it shows its age. Battery technology from this era was primitive by today's standards — you're looking at maybe 25-30km of realistic range if the pack hasn't degraded, which most have. Finding a used one with a healthy battery is genuinely the whole game here. Ask for a full charge test before you hand over any cash, and watch the charge time closely. Mechanically it's simple enough, which is the one genuine blessing. The hub motor rarely causes grief, and the frame is the same basic Ludix architecture Peugeot built thousands of. Parts availability for the scooter bits is fine; proprietary battery and controller parts are where you'll cry. Independent specialists are your only real option when something electrical goes wrong. For a first-time electric two-wheeler or a cheap city runabout covering tiny distances, there's a novelty argument. But compared to what £800-1200 buys you in modern electric scooters, the e-Ludix feels exactly like what it is — a curious relic.
