Ride Beyond the City: Take Life By The Handlebars With The Pure Escape+

Ride Beyond the City: Take Life By The Handlebars With The Pure Escape+

There’s no rule that says your daily ride has to be boring. If your commute requires more – better range and stronger all-terrain capability, for starters – Pure Electric’s newest e-scooter is the one to watch. 

The Pure Escape+ is the company’s most rugged ride yet, ready for tougher ground and longer distances, while maintaining what Pure is known for: innovative design, advanced features, and industry-leading technology.

But beyond the specs, it’s about rides that you look forward to, because your commute doesn’t have to be just another part of your day. With the new Pure Escape+, you can ride your way and unleash a new adventure.

What You Need to Know

The Pure Escape+ is a new and exciting model from Pure Electric. A slight departure from its sleek city commuter e-scooters, such as the Pure Advance+ and the Pure Advance Flex, this model marks the brand’s first venture into more rugged urban riding.

While there are still plenty of similarities between the Escape+ and the Advance line – like Pure Electric’s signature front-facing stance, Active Steering Stabilisation, and top-tier safety tech – it also introduces new features that make it better suited for various surfaces. 

Here’s a closer look at what sets it apart.

Design and Build

One look at the Pure Escape+ and you’ll see how it differs from the rest of the Pure Electric lineup – and how it’s meant to glide beyond streets. 

Strength and premium quality are built into every part of this scooter, featuring a reinforced steel frame and newly designed footpads for added durability and comfort over difficult trails. Its forward-facing stance promotes improved balance and control, especially on longer rides. Meanwhile, the addition of swept handlebars reduces strain and makes steering feel more intuitive, even on challenging routes.

From the ground up, every detail – like the solid deck and the premium finish – is made to withstand daily use and rougher urban conditions. 

Ride Quality

Riding the Escape+ feels smooth and stable, even on rough roads. Aside from the front-facing stance and re-designed handlebars, the scooter also features Pure Electric's Active Steering Stabilisation tech, which enhances manoeuvring by gently returning the handlebar to the centre after turning. 

Instead of relying on standard parts, Pure tested 15 competitor models before developing their own 10" tubeless tyres with better grip and fewer punctures. The added traction means you stay steady on both flat roads and uneven paths.

Power and Speed

The Pure Escape+ is powered by a high-performance 500W motor with a peak output of 900W – plenty of strength for hills, inclines, and quick getaways at traffic lights. It tackles up to a 19% hill-climb, so it’s ideal for mixed terrain and hilly commutes. 

The top speed of 25 KPH is perfect for everyday riders and even beginners. True to Pure Electric’s design, acceleration is easy and predictable: no sudden jolts, just a confident, responsive ride from the moment you set off.

Range and Battery Life

Covering up to 50 km on a single charge, the Pure Escape+ boasts Pure Electric’s longest range yet – more than enough for most daily commutes and weekend rides. The 36V battery consistently delivers reliable power as you ride, so you can keep moving with fewer charging stops and more time on the road.

Safety Features

Whether you're riding in daylight, dusk, or rain, the Escape+ is built to keep you visible and secure. A bright 150-lumen headlight, rear brake light, and always-on running light help you stay seen in low-light conditions, while front and rear reflectors add extra visibility from all angles. The built-in bell lets you signal clearly in busy areas.

For braking, the scooter combines a front drum brake with a rear regenerative brake, providing efficient and responsive stopping power when needed. And with an IP65 water resistance rating, the Escape+ is ready for wet weather, so you can ride with confidence, rain or shine.
