Standing e-scooters that can go at a speed of 20 mph are certainly practical, but what happens when your feet grow weary and need a break? At least if you’re riding a seat scooter, it seems you pop a squat. And that is exactly what the brand-new Fucare HU3 Pro sitting position electric scooter offers: a quick, pleasant riding position in a small, reasonably priced automobile.
The Fucare HU3 Pro e-scooter, which costs around $799, is comparable in price to several other semi e-scooters.
Can the Fucare HU3 Pro dethrone the Xiaomi Mi M365, the current electric scooter king? See how the Fucare HU3 Pro compares to other popular scooters in its class in this review.
Fucare HU3 Pro: DesignÂ
With significant speed, acceleration, and range for its 23 kg size, the Fucare HU3 Pro takes a strong swing at well-known low-cost commuters in a fiercely competitive class of scooters.
Even though it has more power, it loses the smooth ride you require when traveling at speeds close to 32 km/h, largely because of the rather thin 21.6 cm honeycomb (solid) wheels.
However, many riders who prefer not to stand while riding or who feel more stable in a seating posture due to the lower center of gravity would undoubtedly find it more pleasant with an add-on seat attachment.
However, it can be challenging to ignore the Fucare HU3 Pro’s significant head massage and its noisily, obnoxiously rattling fender. The HU3 Pro performs best when kept on level ground because the suspension system on the scooter’s rear did little to nothing to prevent even the smallest grooves in the road from shooting vibrations up our legs.
The HU3 Pro sports an electronic front brake and a disc brake in the back, and its rubber-covered deck can support heavier riders up to 120 kg. The brake lever on the right handlebar is used to engage both brakes, while the thumb control on the left handlebar is used to engage the electronic brake separately.
A single LED headlight and an LED taillight are equipped with the Fucare.
At 1.0 meters, the headlight was seen to output 348 Lux. This is plenty to give some visibility, but for regular nighttime riding, we prefer a much brighter light.
The brakes seem powerful, but they function best when you lean back forcefully while braking in an aggressive rider stance, shifting your weight to the back of the scooter. During forceful braking, if you don’t shift your weight backward, the rear wheel will lock up on you.
With the seat attached, the base scooter may be changed from a standard standing scooter to one that is more like to an electric cycle, with the rider’s feet in front and hands in front. Sadly, the analogy to an electronic bike ends here because there are no pedals. However, compared to someone coming from a standing scooter experience, the seating position will undoubtedly be more comfortable.
Tires without tubes are more resistant to flats than tires with tubes. They should be easier to patch with slime than pneumatic tube tires in the event of a flat.
This feature is a huge plus because, unless the tires are severely damaged, you shouldn’t need to remove them other than to replace them when they become worn out.
In total build quality is quite good. Due to the big diameter stem, the folding mechanism in particular is strong. All pivots and moving elements of the scooter are carefully fastened together with bolts. In general, riding the scooter is quiet and smooth.
Fucare HU3 Pro: Motor and Driving
The scooter’s hub motor is rated at “500+ watts,” so as long as you aren’t trying to climb any significant peaks, it should have enough power for hill climbing.
Fucare claims that it can tackle slopes of 15 degrees, which is probably more than most bikers will ever require. That doesn’t mean someone won’t complain about how the scooter can’t handle a particularly steep hill in their city in the comments section below, but a 15o incline equates to a nearly 27 percent degree grade, and the highest roads in the US have percentage grades in the 30s, so you should be fine on the Fucare.
Generally, the Fucare HU3 Pro is a reliable entry-level electric scooter with a pleasing amount of power and speed for a first-time consumer. The scooter is let down by a rough, rattly ride, but the thumb controls are still perfect for beginners because they allow for smooth braking and acceleration at moderate speeds.
The HU3 Pro’s performance allows it to compete with both the master and the sea of imitators, but the lack of response from the barely there suspension and the sturdy, narrow tires cause it to fall short in terms of overall riding experience.
20 mph or about 32 km/h top speed should be comfortable on the public roads of most cities but may be slow for longer roads. A cyclist will undoubtedly smile as they pass at 20 mph in the pedestrian path during morning rush hour, when car traffic is at a standstill.
Fucare HU3 Pro: Battery and Range
A 48V and 12Ah battery with 576 Wh of capacity—more than you’ll find in most upright electric scooters—allows you to travel farther, even when hills are in the way. Its battery capacity is actually on the verge of becoming typical for electric bicycles. Fucare claims that’s enough for a range of 40 miles or 64 km, which is again probably more than most users will require for routine city commuting.
Fucare HU3 Pro: Conclusions
A nice electric scooter with a removable battery for a longer range is the Fucare.
Even with the seat attached, the entire device folds up, making it simpler to stow in a car trunk or tuck under your desk at work. It appears like the seats are removable, and when the seat is taken out, the vehicle folds even more compactly.
The Fucare HU3 Pro sitting electric scooter, which has a $799 price tag, is already arriving throughout the US and offers a sat ride for anyone who no longer feels like standing up.
