YUME

YUME covers a wide performance spectrum, with scooters generally priced from around $700 to $3,000. The company sells relatively approachable dual-motor models as well as large-battery, high-voltage scooters built for speed, off-road riding and extended range.

YUME operates as a China-based direct-to-consumer manufacturer with international warehousing and support. Its main differentiator is delivering substantial motor output and battery capacity for the price, frequently including steering dampers, chargers and accessories that cost extra elsewhere. Its styling is typically more aggressive and enthusiast-oriented than that of mainstream commuter brands.
