The Design
About Ut5 전동 킥보드
Ut5는 도심 통근을 위해 설계된 전동 킥보드이다. 형태는 슈퍼카에서 영감을 받아 앞으로 기울어진 실루엣, 넓은 스탠스, 레이싱 그래픽을 갖추었다. 풀메탈 프레임이 강성을 확보하며, 차체는 무광 건메탈 그레이와 밝은 메탈릭 실버가 대비를 이루는 다층 도장으로 마감되었다. 듀얼 모터 구동, 듀얼 서스펜션 시스템, 광폭 대구경 타이어가 주행 안정성을 향상시킨다. 모듈형 외장 배터리는 주행 거리를 연장한다. 전면부의 스틸 보강 튜브는 접었을 때 운반 손잡이 역할을 하며, 강선 케이블 잠금장치가 주차 시 도난을 방지한다.

- Unique Properties
- The UT5 brings a full supercar aesthetic into an electric scooter for the first time. It is not a superficial transplant of styling cues, but a holistic reimagination—from the aerodynamic profile and wide-arched stance to racing graphics—turning the fantasy of "road-hugging flight" into a tangible riding. The front integrates a steel-reinforced tube that doubles as a carry handle when folded, paired with a steel cable lock for secure parking, unifying theft prevention and structural aesthetics.
- Dimensions & Packaging
- The UT5 features a high-performance dual-motor setup for robust power output and long-range capability. Its dual-suspension system and wide-diameter tires improve handling over varied surfaces. A modular external battery provides further range extension. The body's folding mechanism balances structural integrity and portability. The vehicle also includes an intelligent lighting system and integrated rear turn signals to ensure safety during nighttime rides.

- Supercar aesthetics, aerodynamics, low center of gravity and wide wheelbase, racing graphics, dual-motor drive, thrilling driving, urban exploration.
- Production Technology
- Built on a full-metal frame for rigidity and long-term resilience, the UT5's body is finished through a multi-layer painting technique that contrasts matte gunmetal gray with bright metallic silver. At the front, the structural components double as a carry handle, blending functional engineering with visual coherence. The folding mechanism is also ergonomically refined, allowing the scooter to be stowed and carried with ease.
- Design Challenge
- The challenge lay in how to pack supercar-like presence and performance in a compact footprint. Inspired by supercar aesthetics, we developed a forward-leaning profile, racing graphics, and an extended deck to emphasize muscularity and motion. The flared footrests and lowered battery bay deliver a low-center-of-gravity, wide-wheelbase layout. The pioneering handlebar design merges decorative appeal with structural function, overcoming spatial constraints and enabling secure locking.
- Research
- The UT5 seeks to translate the sensory value of supercars into the everyday experience of personal urban mobility. Its design carries forward supercar aesthetics, striking an engineering balance between flowing contours and structural integrity, while enhancing stability with a low-center-of-gravity stance. This shapes an urban mobility space that combines high performance, environmental responsibility, and emotional resonance.
- Inspiration
- Inspired by the aerodynamic speed-sculpted artistry and visual dynamism of supercars, the UT5 features a forward-leaning silhouette shaped with ergonomic intent, blending striking looks with refined control. It aims to translate this thrilling sensory experience from the race track into city streets, transforming urban commuting from a mundane routine into a spirited journey alive with energy and discovery.
- Project Duration
- The project will finish in March 2026 in Suzhou.
- Operation Flow
- A high-definition display keeps essential ride information clearly visible. The intelligent lighting system auto-adjusts brightness based on the environment, enhanced by turn signals and brake light cues. Swappable external batteries extend range on demand. A dual-suspension setup smooths out bumps and irregularities. The optimized folding mechanism enables fast storage—reinforced steel tubing in the folded position allows easy hand-carrying, paired with a steel cable lock for secure parking.
