Okinawa has unveiled the Cruiser, an electric maxi-scooter that will sit at the top of their range. The Cruiser boasts of a 3kW motor that propels the Cruiser to a top speed of 100kmph. The Cruiser gets a 4kWh detachable lithium-ion battery that gives it a claimed range of 120km on a single charge. It also gets fast charging that can fully charge the Cruiser in 2-3 hours. The Okinawa Cruiser has 14-inch alloy wheels, and a typical maxi-scooter form factor with a large apron and bulky proportions. There are disc brakes on both ends, a telescopic front suspension and dual coil springs at the rear. It gets a large storage bin behind the front apron.

The Okinawa gets a parking assist that allows the scooter to be moved forward or back at walking pace. Other prominent features include keyless on/off, mobile charging port, speed lock as well as geo-tracking. It gets LED lights both at the front as well as at the back. It also has a mobile app for a number of connectivity features.
