Today, London-based personal recreation vehicle company D-Fly unveiled the next generation of e-mobility — the Dragonfly Hyperscooter.

Developed by a team of award-winning British and American engineers, Dragonfly is a technological marvel and a triumph of human ingenuity and innovation.

With its patented full-tilt steering, 4-wheel dual independent damped suspension, and a high-class, sleek design, Dragonfly delivers unparalleled stability and control even when navigating difficult terrain.

“The urban mobility industry is burgeoning, and we realized a need for a more advanced, high-quality product that would usher in a new era of e-mobility. With Dragonfly, we are confident that we have created something truly special that will change the way people move around cities and not only today but forever.” – says Jez Williams, the CEO of D-Fly Group.

The Dragonfly Hyperscooter is more than just a 4-wheel electric scooter. It’s the urban mobility equivalent of a supercar. With 10″ slick tires and meticulously engineered components, this hyperscooter is perfect for anyone who wants to zip through traffic and arrive at their destination in style.

About Dragonfly

The patented 3-Dimensional Full-Tilt Steering System is a revolutionary and intuitive way to steer by engaging all 4 wheels at once. It syncs with the motions of the rider.

Its unique wide 4-wheel carbon fiber platform offers unparalleled stability and safety when tackling the dangers of the modern urban landscape.

The Dragonfly Hyperscooter features 2x powerful 500 W motors pushing a tremendous total peak power of up to 1,650 Watts to all 4 wheels, allowing you to comfortably and confidently maintain speeds of up to 25 mph (40 km/h).

The hyperscooter features the first-ever dual wishbone suspension, a fully adjustable hydraulic damped sprung suspension on all 4 wheels, adjustable deck suspension, and full axle articulation!

Variations

The Dragonfly hyperscooter is introduced to the market in two versions: the urban DF and the off-road DFX.

The DF is designed for smooth riding in urban areas or parks. Meanwhile, if you are looking for a challenging terrain option, the DFX is perfect for you as it comes with wider fenders and handguards.

Nevertheless, both versions are fast, convenient and make any ride an enjoyable experience. The technical breakdown of both DF and DFX can be found here.

Availability

Currently, Dragonfly is available on Indiegogo, with prices ranging between 1750 Pounds for DF and 2100 founds for DFX, depending on which variation you’d be interested in.
