AURORA Long-Range Commuter Electric Scooter (48V)

Yes. The Simple Commute aka TSC was founded in March 2024 and officially launched in September 2024 by Hamlet and Ben here in Melbourne.

It’s now proudly owned and run by 3 young Aussies - Hamlet, Ben and Puneet. All our operations, from customer service to logistics and repairs, are handled right here in Melbourne. Head to our About Us page to learn more about the team and our story.

Because we actually care about you, not just the sale. At TSC, you get local Aussie support, fair pricing, and scooters that are built and tested for Australian roads. We only work with highly reputable manufacturers, and every model we release goes through strict global-standard testing — our scooters and batteries hold some of the highest safety certifications in the industry.

Most importantly, we value customer relationships more than sales. Whether you’re just browsing or ready to buy, you’ll always get honest advice and genuine support. That’s what sets us apart.

Yes. All our electric scooters are capped at 25 km/h to comply with Australian regulations, making them speed compliant when capped to 25 km/h, but rules vary by state and location.

No. The 250w rule applies only to e-bikes, not e-scooters. Our electric scooters are classified as Personal Mobility Devices (PMDs) in Australia. The key regulation for PMDs is that they must be capped at 25 km/h for public use, regardless of motor wattage.

Most e-scooters either perform well or come at a good price, but rarely both. The Aurora delivers on performance for daily commuting while staying portable and practical.

GPS tracking sounds handy but can be bypassed.

The best way is to take it with you whenever possible. If you can’t, use a strong lock, or even better, multiple locks, to make thieves think twice.

TSC offers tough, high-quality security options like disc brake locks, key locks, heavy-duty chains and alarm locks. Check out our accessories page to keep your Aurora safe.

You can unlock the speed for private use by emailing our team directly after purchase with your order number ready.

Yes, the Aurora is portable. It weighs 23kg (21kg without the battery) and has a 3-second folding mechanism, so you can easily carry it or store it in your car.

In Australia, the regulatory landscape for electric scooters is a patchwork of diverse legislation, with each state and territory crafting its own unique set of guidelines. These region-specific rules govern various aspects of e-scooter usage, including rider eligibility, permissible operating areas, and speed limitations.

Before investing in an electric scooter, it's crucial for potential owners to familiarise themselves with the local regulations that will impact their riding experience. Navigating this complex web of laws can be challenging, so make sure you do your research.
