SEAT MO, the urban mobility subsidiary of the Spanish manufacturer, has just announced the arrival of a 50 cc version of its electric scooter.
The SEAT MO 50 is identical to the 125 cc in terms of style. As a reminder, this scooter was not developed by SEAT but by the company Silence, which also markets it on its own. Its standout feature is a removable trolley battery, meaning it is mounted on wheels and equipped with a handle to facilitate transport. This is an interesting solution, but it only makes sense if you live on the ground floor or in a building with an elevator. Otherwise, you will have to carry the battery… which is almost impossible given its weight (41 kilos).
The SEAT MO 50 retains this trolley system and uses the large 125 battery. With a capacity of 5.6 kWh, it offers a theoretical range of 172 km. An impressive figure for a 50 cc equivalent, though it can only be reached in Eco mode.
Like all 50 cc equivalents, the scooter is limited to 45 km/h, reaching that speed in 3.8 seconds with Sport mode. The motor, directly integrated into the rear wheel, delivers 4 kW (7.3 kW at peak). This feature should allow customers to benefit from interesting purchase subsidies. Indeed, for powers exceeding 2 kW, each kWh of battery grants a €250 bonus, with a cap at €900 and 27% of the total price. Regarding charging time, SEAT states it takes between 6 and 8 hours on a domestic outlet.

The SEAT MO 50 features a storage compartment that can hold 2 helmets (if they are not too bulky). It is equipped with two USB ports and can be connected to an app, which provides access to various information remotely. The reverse gear present on the 125 version is also retained on this non-licensed version.
The 50 cc version of the SEAT MO will go into production in January 2023. The first customers will receive their scooters before the end of the first quarter. For now, SEAT has not yet announced pricing.
