FAQ

Askoll - Italian, stylish electric scooters created with reliability and quality. Even the smallest components of Askoll scooters are designed and made in Italy. One of the most distinctive features is the so-called 'mid-drive' powertrain, which gives the scooter an advantage over the regular 'hub' motors in the rear wheel. This type of powertrain does not strain the scooter's rear suspension, so any bumps in the road will be much smoother.
