Home / New Bike Prices / Niu / NQi GT
The NIU NQi GT is the flagship version of NIU’s current Nepal scooter lineup, positioned as a premium urban electric two-wheeler with a stronger motor, removable dual-battery setup and a long-feature list that fits daily commuting as well as occasional longer city runs. In Nepal, it sits well above mainstream commuter scooters on price, but its tech, app-led ownership and higher performance make it a more serious alternative for buyers who want car-like convenience without fuel costs.
Editorial overview compiled from official specs and Nepali/Indian auto sources · as of 18 Jul 2026.
The NQi GT is the most premium-looking NIU on sale in Nepal, with a clean, upright scooter stance and the kind of minimalist, modern design the brand is known for. In Nepal, the top-variant look is typically presented in two-tone or dark finishes, and the GT’s styling is less about ornament and more about a smart, contemporary urban presence. It feels more like a compact city machine for professionals than a budget runabout.
The top NQi GT uses a Bosch-tuned electric drive with a continuous output of up to 3000W, and NIU also describes it as using a high-performance dual lithium-ion battery system. The Nepal-market GT is the strongest and quickest version in the line, with local media citing a top speed of around 80 km/h and a claimed riding range that can stretch well beyond typical short-hop city scooters. It also offers three riding modes—SPORT, DYNAMIC and E-SAVE—which is one of the model’s key advantages for mixed Nepal road conditions.
