Prices as listed on https://www.liftyelectric.com on 28 October 2026. KuKirin models are online orders fulfilled from a European warehouse, so check the product page for the current price and confirm stock before ordering. A newer KuKirin model is not always identical to the older Kugoo version with a similar name: compare the specification on the product page.

Is Kugoo the same as KuKirin?

Yes, for the European scooter range. The same manufacturer used the Kugoo and Kugoo Kirin names before moving to KuKirin, which is why many reviews, videos and spare-part listings still say Kugoo. Model families carried over (G2, G3, G4, M4), but specifications have changed between production runs. A 2026 KuKirin G4, for example, has a 60V, 1,200 Wh battery and 11" wheels, so don't rely on an old Kugoo G4 review for the numbers.

Are Kugoo and KuKirin scooters legal in Ireland?

Not on public roads. Irish rules allow e-scooters with a maximum continuous rated power of 400W, a design speed of 20 km/h and a weight of 25 kg or less, ridden by someone aged 18+ wearing a helmet and hi-vis. Every current KuKirin model is above the power limit, so they are for lawful private-land use only, with the landowner's permission. For commuting on Irish roads, choose a regulations-ready scooter and check our e-scooter law guide.
