INOKIM OX S/H 2022

The flagship model of the INOKIM brand embodies all the values of this manufacturer. This scooter is a top model not only by its specs but also in terms of safety, design, comfort and reliability. It is literally a legendary model known by all fans of personal electromobility. The entire OX model series shares an identical scooter body and design and the individual models only differ by their performance and battery capacity. The comparison table of individual OX models is provided at the end of this description.

The entire scooter radiates experience in design as INOKIM is one of the oldest manufacturers of electric scooters in the world. They built and sold their first electric scooter eleven years ago, which cannot be said of the vast majority of “newcomers” to the market. That is why OX is exceptionally well made, to the last detail. By the way, this scooter won a prestigious prize for its design, the Red Dot Design Award, only a few products can boast about.

Safety

Safety comes first when it comes to INOKIM brand. That is why OX has been made of an extremely strong aluminum alloy used in the aerospace industry. The entire structure is cleverly balanced so that it is stable even at high speeds. The two brakes always stop the scooter safely. The front brake is a high-quality maintenance-free drum brake and the rear one is a disc brake. The patented OSAP chassis system contributes not only to comfort but also to safety by maintaining stability even at high speeds and when driving on poor surfaces. The less experienced riders have the option to limit their top speed. The front and rear LED lights contribute to safety. The rear light also serves as a brake light. The strength of the entire scooter allows load capacity of up to 120 kg. The scooter has a kick-start feature, preventing any unwanted start up.

Power

The OX ranks among powerful models. Thanks to its peak power of 1300 W, it reaches speeds of up to 45 km/h! It may provide less power compared to its big brother INOKIM OXO, but this power remains plenty enough for almost everything you could expect from your scooter. The advantage over the OXO model comes with lower weight by more than 7 kg. The scooter accelerates pleasantly without any unnecessary jerking and delivers full acceleration in a way you can fully enjoy without fear in your eyes. It is also suitable for easy terrain and mild climbs. However, if you plan to use your scooter primarily for that purpose, consider the OXO model. On the other hand, if you are mostly planning medium or long trips around the city, the OX model will reward you with its lower weight, fantastic comfort and sufficient power. After all, 45 km/h is abundantly enough.

Design

The international Red Dot Design Award speaks for itself. Not just the amateurs but also the panel of expert judges consider the design of this scooter to be one of the best in the world. It is simply beautiful and, at the same time, different from all other scooters in this performance category, which look similar as one oak leaf to another. The asymmetrical swingarm suspension is definitely one of the main design features, thanks to which you will never get bored looking at this scooter as both sides look different. On the one side you see a beautiful swingarm holding the wheel while on the other side the wheels look as if they were not attached to the scooter at all. The steering column is beautifully aerodynamically shaped and feels robust, which is expected with a scooter travelling at more than 40 km/h. The OX model is produced only in the exclusive black-orange finish reminiscent of the KTM brand that is well-known among motorcyclists. Unlike the OXO model that comes with orange handles, the OX is fitted with black handles that not only look good but are also comfortable to the touch. The OX has relatively well-hidden brake hoses and other cables that do not disturb the overall feel of the unique design of this machine. The black-orange combination fits this design perfectly, it looks aggressive and luxurious at the same time.

Comfort

The patented OSAP chassis system ensures riding comfort with the wheels asymmetrically mounted on the swingarms. The unique thing is that the OX has a height-adjustable chassis, meaning you can easily change your ground clearance depending on whether you are riding off-road or in the city. The scooter can handle poor terrain. We rode with it on a meadow, poor or even field roads. We did not feel tired of excessive vibrations, not even after a long trip. The 10-inch wheels equipped with tires and inner tubes made by CST further contribute to comfort by helping absorbing any uneven surfaces. With this 10-inch wheel size and a branded tire manufacturer, the OX is not very prone to getting a flat tire. The well-arranged backlit LCD display enhances ease-of-use. The OX also features a length-adjustable kickstand that you can adjust to the ground clearance set on the chassis. Folding the scooter is a simple and comfortable process. Moreover, when in folded position the handlebars remain hooked to the raised portion of the step-on surface and it is therefore possible to grab the OX by its steering column and carry it without the scooter twisting in your hands. We consider the overall maintenance-free nature of this model as contributing to comfort, just step on your scooter and ride it. The charging connector is easily accessible and you do not have to laboriously look for it. Weighing less than 30 kg, the OX model is a little more comfortable to carry compared to the extreme OXO model.

Use and practicality

With its design and performance, this is one of the world’s most versatile scooters. It will handle easy terrain or mild climbing. In a city, you will surely appreciate its performance when riding up the hill, as well as its range, not having to worry even when you need to go on a longer trip or when you did not have time to charge the scooter during the day. When it comes to our conditions, you will be literally enchanted by its very comfortable chassis, which you will be able to use on field roads, as well on our regular roads full of holes. Despite its versatility, this is certainly not the most practical city solution, that is definitely not what we wish to claim. You have to keep in mind the scooter’s weight of some 27 kg, meaning avoiding stairs whenever possible. Given its dimensions, you won’t be able to simply fold it and take it with you to a restaurant. Usually, you will have to lock it outside like a bike. Its weight still allows a single person to lift this scooter without too much effort and moving it over a shorter distance is not a problem. It can fit inside the trunk of a regular car, but there will not be a lot of space left. This means that if you want to take it with you on a longer car trip (for instance, to a sea resort), it is better to put the scooter on your car’s rear bicycle rack mounted on a tow hook. Except for its bigger weight, this is a fantastic solution for both inside and outside the city, while in this category this remains one of the lightest scooters on the market.

Our rating

We simply love the entire OX model series. This is one of the most versatile scooters on the market – an enduro among scooters. One can feel that this brand pays attention not only to design and specs on paper, but also to safety and reliability. Whether you travel off-road on a field road or on a regular road at 40 km/h, or even at a pedestrian pace somewhere in the city center, it will always make you smile and you will always feel that it has been made for the situation you are in. It will look great in a café, as well as on your way to work, parked in the office or covered by dust in a meadow somewhere outside the city during the weekend. You will enjoy it each time you look at it and you will not get tired of it even after many years of daily use. When it comes to choosing a particular OX model, it is up to you and your expected power and range. If you wish to ride without compromises, go with OXO. If you value good range and performance at a slightly lower weight, choose OX. If you do not mind lower power and shorter range and you wish to save money, the OX ECO is definitely a good choice. The table below will help you decide.

Naturally, there are more extreme machines on the market. After all, we have them in our portfolio and sometimes we ride them ourselves. However, none of these other machines come with such versatility and such a pleasant feeling as with this flagship model by INOKIM. The OX is simply about irresistible satisfaction on two wheels in every situation. We have personally visited INOKIM on several occasions at their headquarters in Tel Aviv and while having a lunch with the designer and “father” of the whole brand, Nimrod Sapir Riccard, we were told what describes not only this scooter but the entire INOKIM brand: “Yes, we do know that there are more powerful or cheaper scooters out there. Of course, we would be able to make an even faster, crazier and perhaps cheaper scooter. But we do not see this as a competition we would wish to participate in because it is simply is not what the world needs right now. INOKIM is a family. It’s a lifestyle. INOKIM brings joy and pleasant excitement, it brings quality but, especially, INOKIM brings you safely home to your family every night. And that is more important for us than placing first on the list of world’s craziest scooters.”
