One of them is the electric scooter (e-scooter), often available via scooter-sharing apps such as Beam. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-21062 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.carsome.my\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/wp\/shutterstock_1475338148.jpg\" alt=\"e-scooter\" width=\"1000\" height=\"749\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.carsome.my\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/wp\/shutterstock_1475338148.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.carsome.my\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/wp\/shutterstock_1475338148-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.carsome.my\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/wp\/shutterstock_1475338148-768x575.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You will be able to find these e-scooters all around town, especially near public train and bus stations around commercial areas, and even famous tourist spots. Increasingly, someone on a scooter will cruise past you on the pavement. To access one of these scooters, all you need to do is download the app, find the designated parking spots for these scooters, and scan the QR code on it to unlock and ride it.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Electric scooters or e-scooters are mainly used for commuting, especially in Klang Valley. They connect people from one station to another, from home to your workplace, and also help tourists who wish to see everything Kuala Lumpur has to offer. As traffic can be terrible during rush hours and weekends in Kuala Lumpur, these scooters are the faster, better alternative to motorcycle taxis, taxis, and cars.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Note: e-scooters are not allowed to be used on public roads as it is dangerous and could cause accidents. Violators caught riding one on public roads or highways can be fined RM300 for the first offense and RM1,000 or three months jail for subsequent offenses. If you have to use an e-scooter on public roads, you will need to apply for a special license from JPJ. You are still allowed to ride in gazetted areas such as playgrounds and permitted areas around shopping centers.<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<p><b>Read More: <\/b><a href=\"https:\/\/www.carsome.my\/news\/item\/ora-good-cat-important-ev\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Ora Good Cat: Why It\u2019s One of the Most Important EVs in Malaysia<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a name=\"b\"><\/a><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Why Electric Motorcycles are Better than Conventional Ones<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-21063 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.carsome.my\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/wp\/shutterstock_757384141.jpg\" alt=\"riding an electric motorbike\" width=\"1000\" height=\"667\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.carsome.my\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/wp\/shutterstock_757384141.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.carsome.my\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/wp\/shutterstock_757384141-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.carsome.my\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/wp\/shutterstock_757384141-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><a name=\"c\"><\/a><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Instant Torque &amp; Power<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While gas-powered engines take longer to power up and reach peak torque, requiring the engine to be spinning at high rpm (revolutions per minute), electric motors can output their peak power and torque instantly from 0 rpm and maintain consistent power and torque through the entire rpm range too. In the real world, that means electric motorcycles have better acceleration which is useful when overtaking and climbing a hill, especially in heavy traffic.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Read More: <\/b><a href=\"https:\/\/www.carsome.my\/news\/item\/ev-charging-station-apps-in-malaysia\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">All the EV Charging Station Apps For A Greener Road Trip<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a name=\"d\"><\/a><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Provides More Comfort<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Compared to conventional ones, electric motorcycles don\u2019t vibrate or shake while riding or when you are stopped at a red light. Yes, there are many gas engines that provide additional counter-balances that reduce vibrations, but that adds complexity and cost without totally eliminating the vibration. You also don\u2019t have to worry about accidentally burning yourself on the hot exhaust header.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a name=\"e\"><\/a><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Tuning &amp; Updates<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">One of the best parts about owning an electric motorcycle is it\u2019s easier to customize its performance to suit your needs. Some bikes have an inbuilt performance profile customizer where you can adjust the power and behavior of the motor. Then there are also electric motorcycles that can be tuned by plugging them into a laptop. Compared to petrol-powered motorcycles, there are no carburetors to mess with, and no engine timing or injector profiles to adjust.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Most electric motorcycles also receive regular over-the-air (OTA) updates bringing new features, improved rideability, safety, and other goodies, similar to how you\u2019d update your smartphone. That way, your bike can stay relevant for longer and continuously improve itself.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Read More: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">H<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.carsome.my\/news\/item\/hybrid-cars-malaysia-2\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">ybrid Cars in Malaysia: Here\u2019s Everything You Need to Know<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a name=\"f\"><\/a><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Convenient to Run &amp; Maintain<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">With an electric motorcycle, you don\u2019t have to worry about running out of fuel. You can easily use your own charging station in your house or garage to charge your bike\u2019s batteries. And since electric motorcycle batteries are much smaller than those in electric cars, they take a shorter time to charge, often three to five hours depending on the battery capacity.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Some electric motorcycles in Malaysia, like the Blueshark R1 even have compact, removable batteries that you can swap with a fresh battery at a battery swapping station. Maintaining an electric motorcycle is generally easier and cheaper than a conventional one since there are fewer parts to maintain. And that can offset the higher price of electric motorcycles in Malaysia.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a name=\"g\"><\/a><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Electric Motorcycle Rebate 2024 &amp; Road Tax Rate in Malaysia<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There\u2019s a boom of EVs in Malaysia including motorcycles, as evident with the increasing availability of electric motorcycles here.
