Problem
Combustion engine scooters contribute to environmental pollution and reliance on fossil fuels. Replacing these scooters entirely with new electric models can be expensive and wasteful, especially when the existing scooter chassis is still functional.
Solution
Talet-e offers a retrofit solution to convert existing combustion engine scooters into electric vehicles. The talet-e POWER Kit replaces the internal combustion engine, fuel tank, and exhaust system with an electric motor, batteries, and associated electronics. This conversion enables zero-emission transportation while preserving the original scooter's performance characteristics and extending its lifespan. The process includes sustainable recycling of removed parts and updates to vehicle registration documents.
