Since Xiaomi first launched the M365 Electric Scooter in 2017, the company has launched successive models which have all turned out to be highly successful even when buyers have to pay a premium to get it from third-party retailers. Xiaomi is now bringing its electric scooters closer to our doorstep with the launch of the Mi Electric Scooter Pro 2 and Mi Electric Scooter 1S during the ecosystem product launch.
