Who Copied Whom? Okinawa Dual Vs Dexpress Metal
The Okinawa Dual looks very similar to the Dexpress Metal Electric Cargo Scooter. However Okinawa first revealed the first look of the Dual Electric scooter after that Dexpress Launch their Metal so the question is same that who copied to whom?
There are some serious internal differences between this two Electric cargo scooters that the Okinawa has a 48 volt system whereas the metal has a 60 volt system also the Dexpress scooter had a killer component that the dual does not have and that is a Bosch motor the Dexpress had a color LCD display while the dual display seems to be standard.
It seems to us that Okinawa has changed the battery motor controller switches LCD and wire harness to reduce costs while the Okinawa sets the on road price of Dual electric at rupees 58,000 in India the Dexpress metal retails at 71 to 78,000 which is so costly as comparatively to after sales service provided by Dexpress Team.
Okinawa has excellent experience in the individual consumer space but the cargo loader space is an entirely different beast so it remains to be seen how Okinawa’s service and support systems cope with the extra rigor being put on their EV’s nevertheless. We wish the Okinawa team for the best
