Boom Corbett 14 e-scooter – Design Highlights
The Corbett 14 electric scooter features a minimalist moped-style design. The e-scooter comes with a circular LED headlamp, a straight-lined handlebar, and forward-set footpegs. The scooter comes with only a few body panels. Thanks to its moped-themed styling, the e-scooter does not have a large footboard, which reduces foot space and onboard storage. The e-scooter comes with a distinct exoskeletal frame that extends towards the rear to form a grab rail.

This enables the EX variant to boast a driving range of 200 Km per charge. The standard and EX variants of the Corbett 14 sport a top speed of 65 kmph and 75 kmph, respectively.
