The name Pure Electric does not really need an introduction. Originating from the UK, Pure Electric scooters have since become the favourite of many Australian riders because of their impeccable build quality, durability, and top-tier safety features.
These practical scooters have everything covered, from bright lights to an ultra-high water-resistance rating… Well, almost everything.
While Pure Electric scooters are fantastic to use on smooth city streets, they’ve had one limitation: no suspension.
This was not a dealbreaker to many, thanks to Pure’s sturdy build and reliable tyres, but it did leave some wishing for extra comfort and shock absorption.
Why Suspension Matters
Even if you’re not planning to ride off-road, not every street is perfectly paved. Potholes, cracks, and uneven paths are part of everyday riding, and that’s where suspension makes all the difference.
Suspension acts like a cushion between you and the ground. Instead of vibrations transferring directly through the scooter to your hands and knees, the suspension absorbs much of that impact, giving you a smoother ride and less strain on your body.
A good suspension system also enhances control and handling, particularly when making turns or riding on uneven surfaces. With it, you’ll be able to ride more confidently, whether you’re navigating backstreets or completing longer commutes.
Recognising the significant benefits riders would gain from extra comfort, Pure Electric has now introduced its first suspension-equipped models.
Meet the Pure Air 5 Suspension Range
Pure Air 5 Pro+
The Pure Air 5 Pro+ upgrades the Pure Air 5 line with Pure Electric’s new GlideMotion system, which pairs telescopic front forks with twin adjustable rear shocks. Together, they absorb bumps and vibrations to keep you steady across various urban surfaces.
Powered by a 350W motor with a peak output of 924W, the Pro+ easily handles daily commutes with ease. It reaches speeds of up to 25 KPH, climbs gradients of 14%, and offers a range of up to 62 KM on a single charge, which is more than enough for both short trips and longer days on the move.
Equipped with 10-inch tubeless tyres and an IP65 water-resistance rating, the Pro+ is designed to handle rain, puddles, and year-round use. Safety features include a bright 150-lumen headlight, full reflectors, and a dual braking system that combines drum and electronic brakes.
With the addition of suspension, the Pure Air 5 Pro+ is a completely reliable urban ride that’s ready to go wherever in the city.
Pure Air 5 Ultra
For riders seeking maximum performance and comfort, the Pure Air Ultra is the most advanced model in the lineup. Built for longer journeys and tougher terrain, it combines high power, long range, and Pure’s new GlideMotion suspension system with added steering stability for unmatched control.
A 500W motor, which peaks at 1201W, gives the Ultra the strength to climb hills up to 19% and cruise smoothly across the city or beyond. Its high-capacity battery delivers up to 93.8 KM on a single charge, which makes it the best choice for riders who want to travel further without worrying about range.
Apart from a dual suspension system that smooths out rough surfaces, the Pure Air 5 Ultra also comes with Active Steering Stabilisation, Pure’s anti-wobble technology that helps recentre the handlebars after turning. It keeps handling steady and gives you more confidence even through hairpin turns and rugged roads.
Like every Pure scooter, the Ultra is made for year-round use. With IP65 water resistance, a full lighting system, indicators, reflectors, and a robust steel frame, it’s ready to perform rain or shine.
The Air 5 Ultra is designed to deliver: comfort, stability, range, and power. Whether it’s the daily commute or a weekend adventure, this is the Pure Electric scooter that can handle it all.
