In a bid to improve user experience, performance, and safety, Simple One has started rolling out an over-the-air (OTA) update to users. There is more to the OTA update of the Simple One electric scooter than first appears. It adds features that affect almost every aspect of the scooter’s operating system.
More seamless switching between the riding modes—Eco, ride, Dash, and Sonic—is provided by the update, which adjusts their nature. Especially on the Eco and Ride modes, the riders will get slightly improved range performance and better throttle response.
Battery health must be preserved in the operation of electric scooters. Better heat control and better state-of-charge measurement are provided through the smart battery management algorithms of the new software. This could provide the cyclist with more dependable information while preserving the long-term life of the battery.
The new dashboard UI is perhaps one of the most visually appealing updates in OTA. It now possesses an even sleeker look, quicker response time, and easier-to-reach ride analytics and navigation. To customers who depend on real-time information, the touchscreen has been made more interactive as well.
More sophisticated remote diagnostics are now facilitated by the scooter. Riders are able to monitor health data, recent journeys, and even get notified of any faults prior to them becoming critical issues through the connected app. This reduces constant visits to the service center, making it easy to keep the scooter in peak condition.
Enhanced anti-theft feature is another benefit of the update. Riders can now more effectively guard their scooters when they are left in a public place with the onboard system’s improved motion sensor and remote lock features.
Although the Simple One’s latest OTA update isn’t necessarily a game-changer or flashy, it’s positive that commuting in the future will continue to be software-first, intelligent, and customized.
