Hero Electric starting range of electric scooters starts from this Flash series previously it comes with a wet battery but now with this new Flash LX model it comes with a lithium-ion battery that makes it more reliable. Now, this electric scooter provides you with a good range and less charging time. Let’s start the review of this Flash LX electric scooter and we will talk about every aspect of this scooter.
Flash LX: Looks
From the front, it looks good, the big-sized headlight given in the apron. On the side of the apron, you can see some colourful designs. Indicators are mounted in the handlebars which give the electric scooter a different look.
If you look at the scooter from the sides, it looks good. Hero added the model badge (HERO ELECTRIC FLASH LX) with some design elements. This design looks overfilled though it is a subjective matter you might like this kind of design.
The rear profile of the Flash LX electric scooter looks quite broad. The taillight and the blinkers are in the same panel which makes it look like a big electric scooter.
Overall the looks of the Hero Electric Flash LX look nice.
Flash LX: Ride and Comfort
The seat of this Flash LX is nice and broad. It can accommodate two people very easily. The seat is on the softer side and well-cushioned. This kind of seat makes the city rides very comfortable.
Flash LX comes with good quality suspensions. Rides that are difficult and bumpy are no longer an option. Every ride is jerk-free and smooth thanks to the cutting-edge telescopic suspension.
Flash LX: Space
If we talk about the space, then first you can see an adequate amount of space near the key socket. It is like a cavity where you can carry little things like shades, keys, purses on the go.
With this, you have a hook to hang your bags and there is a big amount of legroom where you can easily carry your office bags, grocery bags, and anything very easily.
Hero has increased the battery size in this new scooter so that the unseat space has decreased and you get a little space near to the battery but Flash LX provides a big sized grab rail where you can add a box to carry your stuff. The box is provided to you as an accessory.
Flash LX: Instrument Console
You will get a fully digital instrument panel. It is a black and white panel, where you get all required information like battery status, speedometer, and odometer.
Flash LX: Colour Options
This Hero electric flash LX comes in two colour options, which are very common in an electric scooter but with good graphics, these colours really suit the scooter. These colours are:
- Red
- Silver
