Have a Merry Christmas with HATASU ebike


 

Tis' the season to be jolly! What better way to reward yourself by getting an ebike for your daily travel needs? And here’s three (3) reasons why you should! 

      Budget Friendly Vehicle Alternative - Compared to cars or motorcycles, the HATASU ebikes cost less than P70k but deliver the same functions as a traditional vehicle making it more affordable and will save you a lot of money especially if you are a frequent short distance traveler. There are multiple installment options available as well. 

      No gas needed - With the rising gas prices, more and more are finding alternative ways to go around and since ebikes are powered by electricity with no gas needed! You're therefore able to save whilst still meeting your riding needs. 

      Lower maintenance cost - Ebike batteries usually last for up to 2-3 years before they need to be replaced. This is relatively cheaper than the monthly maintenance cost of owning a traditional gas powered vehicle. 

With all the available options out there, picking the right ebike can be a challenge but no worries! Because we found an ebike brand that has a variety of models that you can pick from depending on your lifestyle.

 

HATASU ebike is a mobility solution brand that’s been establishing its influence in the local market. Their aim is to provide safe, value-for-money, and sustainable products that address the pain points of every Filipino. Whether you need a vehicle for school, work, business, family and or community use, they got it all for you! 

 

To help you pick which HATASU ebike best fits your needs and budget, we’ve come up with a comprehensive list below. 

 

P20,000-P25,000 Budget: HATASU KUMI 2023, best for students and young professionals always on the go! 

 

Are you a student or young professional who’s tired of commuting everyday but at the same need to save costs? 

 

We recommend the KUMI 2023, a two-wheeler ebike that’ll help you go to school and/or your workplace hassle-free. It’s a basic ebike that’s easy to use but has all the features you need. In terms of specifications, it’s equipped with a Lead-Acid Battery, has a speed of 25 kph Max and can go up to 40-50 kms Range. This makes it also perfect for people who need a vehicle for short-range travel so they can run their errands just within their vicinity. Plus it's easier to maintain and you wouldn't have a hard time looking for parking! If you’re not privy with the specs, the KUMI 2023 comes with a Front Basket where you can store your bags and other items and it has a110kgs Load Capacity.

 

The KUMI 2023 comes in two colorways: All Black and Black/Red.

Maybe you already own a motorcycle or bike but you need to cut maintenance and gas costs or you’re just exhausted having to pedal all the way to places. If you can relate to this, then it's time for an ebike upgrade with the NERO Lite! 

 

With features like a Park Button that keeps the ebike securely motionless when parked even when on a hill or a steep road, a Speed Selector so you can control over the speed of the ebike and a durable Digital Display where you can see panel information like battery status, speed & mileage clearly even in broad daylight.

P35,000-P40,000 Budget: HATASU HARU, the compact three-wheeler for everyJuan

 

Now here’s an interesting one! Usually when you think of a 3-wheeler ebike, it's the tricycle type usually meant for 3-4 persons. But what if you just need an ebike for yourself? And you don’t know how to balance a bike? Well even in this very specific situation, HATASU has got the solution for you with its HARU ebike. 

 

The HARU is a compact three-wheeler that seats one person with an additional backseat.  Equipped with beginner friendly features, even someone with no prior experience of driving an ebike can easily hop on and use it! It has a 180 kgs Load Capacity, a powerful 500W Differential MotorWider FootboardCushioned Saddle-Seat and aFront Basket too.
