Home / New Bike Prices / Niu / UQi GT
The Niu UQi GT is a compact, lightweight electric scooter with a strong urban focus: simple styling, low running costs, and enough tech to feel more premium than its size suggests. In Nepal, it sits in the middle of the affordable EV scooter conversation at Rs 2,76,000 for both listed current variants, and its most natural rivals are other city-first electric scooters rather than full-size maxi-scooters.
Editorial overview compiled from official specs and Nepali/Indian auto sources · as of 28 Jul 2026.
The UQi GT’s look is deliberately minimal and upright, with a small-footprint body, exposed tubular-steel frame, and a clean, almost utilitarian profile that suits crowded city use. For Nepal buyers, that shape makes sense on narrow roads and in tight parking spaces, while the 14-inch wheel format and 180 mm ground clearance should also help it cope better with broken urban surfaces than many smaller-wheeled scooters. The top-variant UQiGT is also defined by NIU’s 360-degree lighting layout, including automatic headlight behavior and auto-off indicators, which is a practical visibility feature for city traffic.
The UQi GT sold in Nepal uses a Bosch-branded hub motor paired with a 48V 31Ah lithium-ion battery, with published local-spec power figures landing around 1,200W to 1,500W depending on the source, so buyers should treat it as a low-speed, city-oriented EV rather than a high-performance scooter. Nepal listings and local coverage place its top speed at about 45 km/h and its claimed range in the roughly 70-80 km band, which is enough for short daily commutes and errands but not for riders expecting long-distance pace or motorway-style reserve. For Kathmandu and other Nepal cities, that performance profile is best understood as calm, efficient, and practical rather than quick or sporty.
