The Turboant X7 is a perfect example of a Chinese product that mimics the Chinese brand. In this case, we're referring to Xiaomi, one of the most popular companies today that makes almost everything from vacuum robots, Smartphones or electric scooters.
We can see exactly how Turboant X7 is trying to emulate Xiaomi M365. We see this in the finishing of its black aluminum matt or red brake outer strap or the way it folds, that is, easily confused with the M365.
However, if we look at more details, we can see some differences. For starters, the battery is not under the plate where it stands, otherwise it is in the hold tub and is removable.
For removal you can download or store it inside your house without leaving it outside packed with a scooter. This is really helpful because the internal temperature can be a lot more “good” for the battery than we found in a cold garage in winter.
Price and availability
As we mentioned above, this model cannot be purchased directly in Spain, but can be imported. For this reason, we set the price in dollars, because it's the price you'll find on any page where you want it.
When you buy a scooter right on the page The official Turboant website, you can get it for $ 399.99 (€ 359.22 approx). Of course, for the past few days the average price for a tagged website is 599.99 euros, so we don't know if we are facing a major discount or inflation to make the price look higher.
Another option is to buy through the platform online Gearbest where it is currently offered at a price of $ 424.03 (€ 380.81 approximately).
Don't forget that you will have to pay import duties and VAT if you're in Europe, which raises the cost of the prices shown above.
And remember that there are two versions: one European and one American. The EU version is limited (legal) to 15.5mph, and the US version has a top speed of 20mph. These changes are automatically sent based on your destination address.

Design tools
The Turboant has a 350W four wheel drive motor and a 230Wh battery with enough power at a distance of 25 km. Like any other a motorcycle electric or bicycle, the distance will depend on the temperature, the weight of the cyclist and the number of hills you need.
The wrap is easy to use, and although not as light as a a motorcycle A non-electric tradition, its 12.5 kg weight is still moving.
The stopping power informs you of the rear disc brake and the electronic brake on the front of the engine. In an emergency, you can also place your foot on the back frame to reduce the speed.
The X7 screen is better than that of Xiaomi, showing your speed and battery level. On the red accelerator there is a button that takes you to the menu and lets you configure a few options.
If you press it once, you will go to the next operating mode, including & # 39; Start & # 39;, & # 39; Casual & # 39; & # 39; Games & # 39; Routes are marked by icon (otra D & # 39; white and red). This also indicates the amount of power available to the engine when the accelerator is pressed.
The two short machines start to glow, but the red LEDs that light up in the background are permanently active, and come on when the leak brake is pulled. There is a wrench icon that flashes if there is any kind of error.
The build quality is good overall, it has a good design and resistance will be able to convince anyone.
The 8.5-inch wheels with tubeless tires can be vented with a standard Strrader valve. The box features a flexible Schrader attachment, but unless you have a pump that fits the right cord, it won't do you any good.
We found that most standard bicycle pumps do not fit with the used valve of the front wheel, so you will need to use a cord similar to that provided by most automotive pressure pipes.
It should be noted that the handle does not close as fast as many others carriers, So it takes up more space when put together. And that can be a problem if you plan to use public transportation during rush hour.
Working
In terms of performance, the X7 feels powerful and fast-paced in & # 39; Sport & # 39; mode, even by throwing the front wheel in wooden positions.
The main advantage is that there is less space than most scooters electric, so they are less likely to be buried in curbs and other materials.
However, we note that it greatly reduces power when riding a stone, this way we have seen the difference between the X7 and the a motorcycle Xiaomi M365 Pro.
Specification means that the maximum inclination is 10 degrees, which equates to 19% inclination. Or in fact, depending on our experience with the scooter, it's only 10% mountain.
On the plain, however, it accelerates at full speed with all the proper force.
With all the weight up, you can lean forward when pushing the X7 up the hill, but it's the only time it's a problem.
The decision
The X7 is a a motorcycle Decent, but if you're in Europe, it's hard to determine the cost and inconvenience of importing it or dealing with any warranty repairs when you have to go to El Corte Inglés or MediaMarkt and buy the Xiaomi M365 for a small fee.
However, if you are sure that you prefer the X7-powered screen instead of the simple line of LEDs available on the M365, then it may not be worth it.
