The Brief
Nought approached beta in 2020 to design a market leading E-scooter. Analysing user experience through testing existing competitor products, we found a gap in the market for a compact, powerful, well engineered scooter for urban use. With new legislation about to come out it was the perfect time to implement additional safety features that gives the rider more reassurance on the road.

Mechanical Features
The Nought.One has been designed to integrate into everyday life with ease. It’s not just the finely tuned frame that makes this the best performing electric scooter on the road. Numerous mechanical features include:
10” wide tubeless tyres which ensure a smooth ride. A powerful 500W rear hub motor, bar mounted indicators, an integrated bell and cruise control. Front daytime running light/headlight and twin rear daylight running light/brake lights enhanced visibility. Front and rear hub brakes that keep dust and grime from braking surfaces, avoiding damage without compromising performance.When not in use, the mechanical spec still shines. A specifically engineered centre stand ensures stable parking, and eliminates the problem of an unsafe kickstand, left down. The Nought.One can be stored on one end, ensuring the smallest possible storage footprint, and it can also be wheeled round on end, meaning those tight corridors, shopping aisles and ticket barriers are simple to navigate. A removable battery allows for fuss-free charging and extended range - as one battery dies, a fresh one can be swapped in.

User Interface
The UI has been designed to only visualise the key information needed during your ride. Data fields show range remaining, battery percentage remaining, total mileage, current speed, cruise control on/off and headlight on/off.
The touchpoint has been simplified to just three buttons; scooter on/off, headlight on/off, cruise control on/off. Using a OLED screen with great resolution, the colours are vibrant and have been used to help signal at a glance useful information while on the move. Edges flash amber to show indicator activity, battery status to red when low and the speedo changes colour when cruise control is activted.
