Welcome to the next generation of e-scooters — the Hyperscooter.

The Dragonfly Hyperscooter is more than a scooter with 4 wheels. It’s the urban transportation of the future.

The result of 5 years of engineering, prototyping and testing, the Dragonfly is the only urban transportation to feature the patented first-of-its-kind Full Tilt Steering System, allowing you to enjoy a riding experience like nothing before it.

You can intuitively tilt the large, stable platform naturally from side-to-side and carve through the city just like you’d shred down the mountain on a snowboard. Or dial in tighter moves with the added maneuverability of the ergonomic handlebars. The choice is yours.

This is not an e-scooter. This is a Hyperscooter. This is Dragonfly.

The modern city has more obstacles. More traffic. More people. More dangers. And it seems that no matter who you are, you’re forced into the same tight spots, as the daily rush hour grows ever busier.

But the modern commuter like you is more demanding, and is not satisfied by even the best vehicles from past centuries. 

The Dragonfly Hyperscooter is the future of urban transportation. The refined vehicle for the modern urbanite. The sleek and elegant cruising machine that will turn heads and part the crowds. The platform that will allow you to glide effortlessly through busy streets.

You’ll wish you lived further from the office as you power through traffic and weave past pedestrians at speeds of up to 25 mph (40 km/h) — enjoying a completely reimagined riding experience.

Just lean in and enjoy your next big adventure!

The Dragonfly Hyperscooter’s unique wide 4-wheel carbon fiber platform offers unparalleled stability and safety when tackling the modern urban landscape.

Move fast and weave tightly thanks to Dragonfly Hyperscooter’s ultra-low center of gravity and the most stable yet agile platform on the market. 

And unlike any 2-wheel vehicle, even when you feel like slowing to a stop, you never have to put a foot on the ground.

Designed from the ground up, the Dragonfly Hyperscooter’s patented 3-Dimensional Full-Tilt Steering System is a revolutionary and intuitive way to steer by engaging all 4 wheels at once. 

You can steer as usual by turning the handlebars… but once you go Full-Tilt, you’ll never look back. 

With total control over your Hyperscooter’s steering behavior, you can carve through busy streets like a snowboarder shredding down a mountain, or lean in on slow turns to achieve the tightest 45° turn — something unheard of on any other urban vehicle, scooters and cars included.

Read on to see how this innovative patented steering system works.

The Dragonfly Hyperscooter’s innovative 4-wheel platform represents an opportunity for more power, control, and speed. And why should your ride be limited to just one rear-wheel motor?

The Dragonfly Hyperscooter features 2x powerful 500 W motors pushing a tremendous total peak power of up to 1,650 Watts, allowing you to comfortably and safely maintain speeds of up to 25 mph (40 km/h).

Engage its built-in cruise control and wave as you pass other commuters and leave them in the dust!

With a range of up to 50 miles (80 km) provided by its high-performance 20 W removable battery, you can ride the entire length of Manhattan to work and back home again on a single charge — more than enough to cover your daily commute. 

Have a longer commute? Even better — more thrills riding your Dragonfly for longer! 

Once you get to your destination, just plug your Dragonfly Hyperscooter into any wall socket and watch it charge from 0 to 70% in under 2 hours, or from 0 to 100% in under 3 hours!

Whether you’ve never set foot on a scooter before or you’re a professional racer, the Dragonfly Hyperscooter features a ride mode perfect for you to get the most out of it, while feeling comfortable at all times.

As you progress and gain confidence in your riding abilities, you can unlock more aggressive riding modes and find your perfect balance of comfort and thrills:

  • D1 — Max Speed of 9 mph (15 km/h)
  • D2  — Max Speed of 16 mph (25 km/h)
  • D3  — Max Speed of 25 mph (40 km/h)
  • R- Reverse Max Speed 3mph (5km/h)

Engage the 4-wheel dual-braking mechanism to go from 25 mph to a full stop in under 6 feet.

Safely engage the 2 mechanical rear drum brakes with the left-hand brake lever to begin braking, then feather in the right-hand brake lever to experience the powerful action of 2 modulated electric brakes on both front wheels, to come to a complete stop.

Power through traffic and enjoy your commute to work without compromising on confidence or stability.

The Dragonfly Hyperscooter features the first-ever dual wishbone suspension, a fully adjustable hydraulic damped sprung suspension on all 4 wheels, adjustable deck tilt tension, and full axle articulation.

It all works together to offer you the smoothest, safest, most comfortable ride ever on a vehicle this compact.

And with its 10’’ pneumatic tires made from natural rubber, your Dragonfly Hyperscooter will absorb even the most uneven terrain you throw at it. This means less bumping and shaking, allowing you to blast over potholes and manholes, rocks and gravel.

Thanks to its 2-wheel drive and anti-skid traction control, you can safely carve through uneven or loose terrain, and brave less-than-ideal rain and icy conditions.

The Dragonfly Hyperscooter automatically regulates how much power each front wheel receives. And based on the feel of the road and each wheel’s relative spin it establishes superior traction even under challenging conditions. 

That’s all without requiring any additional steering, braking or accelerating from you — you won’t even realize how intuitive it is until you’re forced to ride something else.

Want to go further? Just transform your Dragonfly into the perfect off-road adventure vehicle.

Changing your Dragonfly Hyperscooter into an off-road monster doesn’t require an expert, maintenance fees or special knowledge. It’s so easy that you can do it by yourself, with just one tool, in under 15 minutes.

Just switch to its all-terrain tires, fenders and hand guards to break free from the asphalt. And with its 4×2 traction control, nothing will stop you from getting to your mountain peak with your Dragonfly Hyperscooter!

Each Dragonfly Hyperscooter’s deck is built from automotive grade 3K carbon fiber to provide maximum strength for a fraction of the weight. This makes for a wider and longer deck that can carry higher capacities, so you can stand more comfortably, without compromising on weight or portability. This super-lightweight deck ensures you really feel the ride as you go.

Our carbon fiber composite is 61x stronger than steel, and 40% lighter than aluminum.

This means your Dragonfly Hyperscooter has a maximum load capacity of 350 lbs (160 kg) while only weighing 39 lbs (18 kg). That would be like a 180-lb man carrying a small car on his back!

Fold it up in two simple movements. Unfold it with just as much ease.

The Dragonfly hyperscooter was designed to be as light and portable as possible. And once you arrive at your destination, park your Dragonfly Hyperscooter for others to admire. Or stash it under your desk or in a closet, in less space than a pair of shoes —vertically just 40 cm2 (0.04 sq ft).

You shouldn’t have to stop just because it’s dark. You shouldn’t have to squint either. 

Building on the safety-first experience created by the Dragonfly Hyperscooter, with the flick of a switch you can illuminate the darkest roads with powerful automotive-grade twin headlights.

But riding safely is not just about seeing the roads. It’s also about making sure the vehicles around you can see you, and know exactly when and where you’re going next.

That’s why the Dragonfly features pulsing side-light turn indicators on the handlebars, so you’re visible to cars in front of you, at your side and behind you, as well as a powerful LED light bar with turn indicators, and red brake lights in the rear for the traffic coming up behind.

You don’t need a professional service to upgrade your Dragonfly. In less than 15 minutes you can effortlessly change a tire or adjust the fenders, with just one tool. It’s that simple.

And if you ever need help, we’ve got you covered – every hyperscooter comes with a manual and QR code linking you to instructional videos. So next time something needs fixing, you’ll save some money and do it yourself!

Everyone rides differently. But with the right adjustments, every ride will be perfect.

The Dragonfly Hyperscooter’s dedicated smartphone app lets you fully personalize your Hyperscooter according to your preferences – but that’s just the beginning.

Select one of the three ride modes, or pair your phone to get all of your notifications conveniently on the 7″ built-in ride display. And thanks to a built-in quad lock mount, you can secure your phone to your Dragonfly’s frame for turn-by-turn navigation.

When you’re not on your Dragonfly, you can rest assured that it’s securely locked with an anti-theft locking mechanism.

If someone attempts to steal it, the 90Db alarm will sound and immediately lock the wheels. It can only be unlocked by you, via HMI and encrypted security FOB.

Your Dragonfly is equipped with 7″ high-definition touchscreen, that sits between the handlebars. 

Glide through busy streets of the city without taking your gaze away from the road, while still having access to all the information you need. You’ll have complete oversight the necessary information on  speed, range, battery life, ride mode, and more. 

The unique Dragonfly ‘Full-tilt’ steering system draws inspiration from the race track but goes so much further. It combines three steering methods with dual independent damped suspension to create an optimal system. 

At lower speeds, steering twist angles of 45 degrees provides the rider with tight cornering, down to an impressive 1.0m radius. Ackerman steering geometry (google it) gives accurate, planted control, maximising grip and turning efficiency.

Trail and caster are optimised. At higher speeds, 15 degrees of lean steering invites the rider to carve through their journey. Each method is dynamically interchangeable so the rider can truly fly their own path!

The third steering dimension is controlled with your feet for a snow boarding street experience with rear wheel carving, or use all 3 steering dimensions for all-wheel turning precision, ideal for avoiding urban or off road obstacles.

This unique patented full tilt steering system can only be experienced on Dragonfly Hyperscooter.
