I still remember when electric scooters first started buzzing through our cities. They were slow, shy little things — more appliance than vehicle. But times have changed. Now they’re the life of the urban party. Cities across Europe have turned into playgrounds for quiet, clean two-wheelers, and the Nerva Exe II electric scooter from Spain might just be the most exciting guest yet.
The Rise of Nerva
The Spanish brand Nerva first made waves with its original Exe scooter — a solid, dependable commuter. But the Exe II is on a whole different level. It’s sharper, sportier, and dripping with confidence. This isn’t just a city runabout anymore; it’s a statement.
Beneath its sculpted panels lies serious power: a liquid-cooled electric motor producing a constant 15 horsepower and peaking at 26 hp when you twist that throttle like you mean it.
Top speed? 81 mph.
That’s fast enough for the highway — and fast enough to make gas scooters look prehistoric.
Powered by BYD’s Blade Battery
At the heart of the Nerva Exe II sits a 7.83 kWh BYD Blade LFP battery — yes, that BYD, the same company building some of the best EV batteries in the world.
This single pack is good for over 6,000 charge cycles. To put that in perspective: if you charged it every day, it’d take 16 years to wear out. You’ll be done with commuting long before the Exe II is done with you.
And charging? Lightning quick. With its 3.3 kW onboard charger, the scooter hits 80% in just 2 hours and fully charges in 2.5 hours from a standard Type 2 plug. That’s less time than watching a Netflix season finale.
Range and Riding Modes
Like any modern EV worth its electrons, the Exe II comes with three riding modes:
Mode | Power | Range |
---|---|---|
Eco | Efficient | 112 miles |
Normal | Balanced | 87 miles |
Sport | Full power | 56 miles |
Whether you’re creeping through traffic or carving up city streets, the Exe II adjusts to your mood — and your schedule.
Designed for the Real World
This scooter isn’t just fast; it’s smart.
You get a crisp 8.8-inch TFT screen with navigation, diagnostics, and keyless start. There’s dual-channel ABS, traction control, and — bless the engineers — a reverse gear.
And let’s talk practicality: under-seat storage for two helmets. Bring a passenger or just fill it with groceries — either way, it’s the kind of detail that makes daily riding easy.
The Price of Spanish Style
Now for the tough part: price.
At around $9,380 USD, the Nerva Exe II isn’t cheap. But let’s be fair — for freeway speeds, 112-mile range, a BYD Blade battery, and all that tech, it’s a lot of scooter for the money.
It’s not trying to be a budget commuter. It’s a premium urban EV that happens to be shaped like a scooter. Clean, fast, smart — the kind of ride that makes traffic feel like theater.
Final Thoughts
So, is the Nerva Exe II the perfect electric scooter?
It just might be. With performance to rival small motorcycles and the reliability of BYD battery tech, it’s proof that Europe isn’t just following the EV trend — it’s leading it.
For now, this Spanish-made beauty is redefining what an electric scooter can be. It’s elegant, practical, and gloriously silent — the perfect partner for the modern city.
