The Complete Guide to Electric Scooters and Electric Motorcycles in Greece
Electric scooters, patinia, kick scooters, mopeds and electric motorcycles are becoming the fastest growing mobility choice in Greece. They are easy to use, very affordable to run, quiet, clean, and ideal for both city commuting and longer rides. From small 25 km per hour models that do not require a driving license to powerful 120 km per hour electric motorcycles, the options today fit every lifestyle.
This guide explains why electric two wheelers are becoming the smart alternative to traditional petrol vehicles, whether the cost is really about €1 per 100 km, and how to choose the right model for your needs.
1. Why Choose an Electric Scooter or Motorcycle
Very low operating cost
The biggest advantage is how cheap they are to run. Many electric scooters cost on average around €1 per 100 km, depending on the model, battery capacity, and electricity price. Even if the exact number varies, the cost per kilometer is much lower than petrol scooters or motorcycles. This makes everyday commuting significantly more affordable.
From 25 km per hour to 120 km per hour
There is a model for everyone.
- 25 km per hour electric scooters are ideal for beginners and daily city rides and they do not require a driving license.
- 45 to 50 km per hour mopeds are the most common for urban commuting.
- 80 to 120 km per hour electric motorcycles are perfect for longer distances, faster roads, and riders who want more performance.
Long autonomy that removes range anxiety
Modern batteries offer long range so you can ride freely without worrying about running out of power. Many models deliver enough autonomy for the entire week of commuting. Some even support quick charging or dual battery setups for extra peace of mind.
No noise
Electric engines are extremely quiet. Riding becomes calmer and more enjoyable. You can move through the city without disturbing anyone and you experience less fatigue compared to loud petrol engines.
Zero local emissions
Electric scooters produce no local pollution. They help improve air quality in cities and reduce overall CO₂ emissions. For many riders, this is one of the main reasons they switch to electric.
Charge at home with a simple plug
Most electric scooters and motorcycles come with swappable batteries. You can remove the battery, carry it inside your home or office, and charge it with a normal wall socket. This removes the need for any special charging equipment and gives you complete flexibility.
2. What You Can Expect to Pay
Electric scooters vary widely in price depending on performance and battery size.
- Entry level models for 25 km per hour are typically the most affordable.
- 45 km per hour scooters and 120 km per hour motorcycles cost more but offer stronger motors and greater autonomy.
Even so, the savings from fuel and maintenance make electric models cheaper in the long run.
3. How to Choose the Right Electric Scooter or Motorcycle
Choose by your daily use
- Pure city rides: Light and compact models up to 25 or 45 km per hour.
- Mixed city and suburban routes: Stronger 45 to 80 km per hour scooters.
- Longer distances and fast roads: Full electric motorcycles with 100 to 120 km per hour top speed.
Check the battery
If you live in an apartment or want to charge easily, choose a model with a removable battery that you can plug into any standard socket.
Check the range
Choose the autonomy you need. If you ride often, or long distances, pick a larger battery or dual battery option.
Licensing
25 km per hour models usually do not require a driving license. Faster models follow the usual licensing rules for scooters and motorcycles.
