“VIVA was created to live at the intersection of urban transportation and self-expression and designed to empower a new era of commuters around the world to make cleaner sustainable energy choices,” said Horace Luke, founder, and CEO, Gogoro Inc. “We are always looking for opportunities to create solutions that enable broader access to sustainable urban transportation and this smaller lightweight category of polluting 50-100cc gas scooters was a natural segment to introduce a Gogoro Smartscooter.”

Gogoro Power & Efficiency

VIVA rides like a Gogoro but is optimized for shorter rides and uses a single battery, a first for a Gogoro Smartscooter. With the industry’s only fully integrated powertrain, maintenance is low and its durability is solid. This same powertrain delivers efficiency, providing up to 85km range per battery swap. With its synchronized braking system, VIVA provides braking control when it is needed most and with the integration of Gogoro’s iQ System® is continuously updating itself to provide the ideal ride.
