KuKirin e-scooter

KuKirin builds e-scooters in three clearly defined performance classes, and that is exactly what determines whether or not you are allowed to ride the vehicle in traffic in Vienna. In this category, you will find three KuKirin models starting at € 299: the compact S1 Max for everyday commutes, the full-suspension G2 Pro, and the G2 Master with dual motor for use off public roads. Consultation and test rides are available at our shop in Vienna.

Which KuKirin e-scooter is right for you?

The three models cater to different riding profiles. The most important dividing line is not price, but the design speed: in Austria, a vehicle is only considered an e-scooter within the meaning of the Road Traffic Act (StVO) if it has a maximum speed of 25 km/h and 600 watts.

• Short city trips, connecting with public transport: S1 Max. 350 W, rear-wheel drive, folding mechanism, the lightest model in our range.
• Daily commuting, longer distances, uneven surfaces: G2 Pro. Full suspension at the front and rear, 9-inch off-road tires, front and rear disc brakes, detachable seat, maximum permissible weight of 120 kg.
• Private property and off-road: G2 Master. Dual motor with all-wheel drive and hydraulic suspension. This model is not approved for use on public roads in Austria; see the next section.

Road legal status in Austria: which model you can ride where

In Austria, an e-scooter is legally treated the same as a bicycle as long as it adheres to the statutory limits. If these are exceeded, it is no longer an e-scooter, but a motor vehicle requiring registration.

• S1 Max: 350 W and 25 km/h are within the legal limits.
• G2 Pro: Only the 25 km/h StVO version complies with the limits. The 45 km/h version is not permitted for public roads in Austria. When ordering, make sure to select the correct variant.
• G2 Master: With 2 × 1000 W and speeds of up to 60 km/h, this model significantly exceeds both limits. It is permitted for use on private property only.

For use on public roads, the required equipment must be present: an effective braking system, a bell or horn, reflectors (white at the front, red at the rear, and yellow on the sides), a headlight and taillight for darkness or poor visibility, and turn signals at the ends of the handlebars. You can find any missing components under E-scooter lights and E-scooter front lights.

We provide an overview of all road-legal vehicles in our range under E-scooters up to 25 km/h. If you are looking for a faster but legally approved vehicle, the E-moped category is the right place.

New StVO rules effective May 1, 2026

The amendment to the Road Traffic Act (StVO) has tightened the requirements for e-scooters. Three points directly affect KuKirin riders:

• Mandatory turn signals: Indicators must be located at the ends of the handlebars and flash yellow, at a rate of 90 ± 30 flashes per minute. Turn signals on helmets or fenders do not meet the requirement. New e-scooters coming onto the market are already equipped with standard-compliant handlebar end signals from the factory, so there is no need to retrofit them. This topic is only relevant for older existing vehicles: you can find suitable solutions under E-scooter lights.
• Helmet requirement up to age 16: Anyone under the age of 16 must wear a helmet. We offer suitable models under E-scooter helmets.
• Blood alcohol limit of 0.5 per mille and a minimum age of 12 years. Children younger than this require accompaniment by a person aged 16 or older.

Furthermore: one person per vehicle, use of cycle paths is required just as with bicycles, and riding longitudinally on sidewalks is prohibited. There is no compulsory insurance in Austria.

Frequently asked questions about KuKirin e-scooters

Which KuKirin e-scooter is approved for use in Austria?

Models with a design speed of up to 25 km/h and a maximum of 600 watts are approved. This applies to the S1 Max and the 25 km/h version of the G2 Pro. The G2 Master and the 45 km/h version of the G2 Pro may not be operated on public roads.

How much does a KuKirin e-scooter cost at Fadu Bike?

Entry-level models start at € 299. The price increases based on motor power, battery capacity, and suspension. You can see the current price for each model directly in the product overview on this page.

Do I need turn signals on my KuKirin e-scooter since 2026?

Yes, turn signals at the ends of the handlebars have been mandatory since May 1, 2026, flashing yellow at 90 ± 30 flashes per minute. For you as a buyer of a new vehicle, this involves no additional effort: all e-scooters arriving on the market are already delivered with factory-fitted, standard-compliant indicators. Signals on a helmet or fender do not meet the requirement.

Is there a mandatory helmet requirement for e-scooters?

For persons under 16, yes. Adults can decide for themselves. However, a helmet is still highly recommended: the small wheels react more sensitively to rails and curbs than those of a bicycle, and falls usually happen forward over the handlebars.

How do the KuKirin G2 Pro and G2 Master differ?

The G2 Pro has a 600 W motor at 48 V and is road-legal in its 25 km/h version. The G2 Master runs on two 1000 W motors at 52 V with hydraulic suspension, reaches speeds of up to 60 km/h, and is therefore a vehicle for private property.

Can I get spare parts for my KuKirin?

Yes. We permanently stock controllers, displays, switches, brake discs, fenders, and tires for the G2 Pro, G2 Master, G3 Pro, and G4. You can find an overview under KuKirin spare parts.

Can I see the KuKirin before I buy?

Yes. Order online and pick it up for free in Vienna, or visit us directly at Weyringergasse 37, 1040 Vienna. If the model isn't right for you, our 30-day return policy applies.
