There's a new way to move around town with Switch electric scooters.

The trendy transportation unit pack a powerful 450W motor, pneumatic 9.5-inch tires, and triple suspension. It's also decked with front and rear lights to keep you safe during night-time rides when visibility might be a challenge.

Every scooter can be connected to your smartphone via a Bluetooth Smart App, which allows you to control your scooter. The app also doubles as a dashboard to track various parameters of your scooter, like its speed on the road, distance covered, and battery level.
