The Oxygen electric CargoScooter has been designed for commercial use to help companies save money and lower their carbon footprint.

New to the UK, the Oxygen electric CargoScooter is the two wheel delivery vehicle of choice for the Swiss Post Office, one of the most efficient postal organisations in the world. The current Swiss Post fleet is 2,000 Oxygen scooters, making it the largest electric vehicle fleet in the world.

Oxygen’s success with the Swiss Post is testament to the cost effectiveness of this commercial delivery vehicle, which can carry 70kg of load in the rear cargo box plus 20kg up front, and is often required to pull a trailer as well!

The Oxygen electric CargoScooter is exempt from road tax charges, so further savings can be made.

A full charge takes 3 hours and may be reduced further thanks to regenerative braking, which returns energy to the battery when the throttle is closed. The range on a full charge is 40 to 75 miles, depending on the battery option and the CargoScooter has a speed of 30mph (restricted) or higher depending on the business requirements.

Prices start from £4,150 plus VAT, including a full two-year warranty, which covers the super efficient lithium-ion batteries. An additional +2-year warranty is also available.
