Introducing the Skick Electric Utility Scooter for All-Weather Travel

The Skick Electric Utility Scooter is a Finnish Marvel




In today’s world, where sustainability meets innovation, electric vehicles are at the forefront of changing how we commute and explore. I can’t tell you how many vehicles I come across where I internally say, “That is a head-turner.” There are specific means of transportation that stand out in a crowd. Enter Skick, the lightweight electric vehicle from Arctic Rides, designed for year-round use. With its Finnish design, meticulous craftsmanship, and outstanding technical features, Skick is more than just a means of transport; it’s a lifestyle choice. This post dives into the versatile capabilities and unique details of Skick, appealing to eco-conscious commuters, outdoor enthusiasts, and tech-savvy consumers alike.


Tell Us About Skick

First, all you need to know about this unique ride is that the name Skick adjoins the words “ski” and “kick.” This clever wordplay perfectly describes this innovative vehicle's design, functionality, and overall feel. It looks like one is standing on two skis, although a handlebar is affixed to a large wheel in the front.




The two wheels in the back can be raised or lowered depending on the terrain you are traveling. At any time, the rider can use a kicking motion to propel the Skick, in addition to the electric assistance. The two ski-like platforms serve as sledding/skiing platforms in snowlike conditions.



Skick’s Design and Craftsmanship

Skick boasts a design that resonates with the elegance and simplicity of Finnish craftsmanship. Known for their minimalistic yet functional approach, Finnish designers have crafted Skick to ensure it stands out in aesthetics and performance. The materials used in Skick are selected with care, emphasizing sustainability and durability. By incorporating lightweight aluminum and high-quality composites, Skick perfectly balances strength and portability.


The attention to detail doesn’t end there. Every curve of Skick’s design is intentional, contributing not only to its beauty but also to its aerodynamic efficiency. This meticulous craftsmanship ensures that Skick is pleasing to the eye and is built to withstand the rigors of daily use across diverse terrains and weather conditions.


Technical Features

Skick’s technical prowess is evident in its impressive battery life, speed, and all-weather capabilities. Equipped with a high-capacity and removable 48V (20Ah) lithium-ion battery, Skick offers an extended range on a single charge, making it ideal for short commutes and longer excursions. If you are lighter, you can eke out 55km (34 miles) of range based on summer riding. If you are a heavier rider like me, the range is closer to 40km (25 miles). Buy a spare battery, and you can immediately switch them out and get back on the trail while the other one charges. (Full charge requires about eight hours)


The 1000W motor delivers smooth acceleration and a top speed of 25km/hr (15.5 mph), ensuring swift arrival at your destination. Indeed, it is not a speed demon in any case, but it conforms to the requirements of the EU.




One of Skick’s standout features is its all-weather capability. This is certainly not a surprise given its Finnish manufacturing location. Designed to thrive in different climates, Skick’s robust build and weather-resistant components make it suitable for year-round riding. Whether you’re navigating through rain, snow, or sunshine, Skick promises a reliable and stress-free ride, enhancing the overall riding experience for users. Skick has reverse gear to make things even easier if you get into a tight spot.


Versatility for Commuters

For the eco-conscious commuter, Skick is more than just an electric utility scooter — it’s an intelligent choice for sustainable travel. With urban congestion and pollution rising, Skick offers a greener alternative that doesn’t compromise convenience. Its compact design makes it easy to maneuver through traffic, while its electric powertrain ensures zero emissions.


Safety is paramount in Skick’s design. Featuring advanced hydraulic braking systems in the front and intuitive controls, Skick prioritizes rider safety while providing a comfortable and efficient commute. Its versatility makes it a perfect fit for city dwellers looking to reduce their carbon footprint without sacrificing time or comfort.


Adventure for Outdoor Enthusiasts

Skick is not just confined to the urban jungle; it’s built for adventure. Outdoor enthusiasts will appreciate its all-terrain capabilities, which make it suitable for various outdoor activities. The robust suspension system and the rugged ATV front tire allow Skick to easily tackle rough paths, gravel roads, and forest trails.




Whether heading to a countryside trail or exploring a beachside path, Skick’s adaptability ensures that your adventures are not limited by terrain. It’s the perfect companion for those who seek thrill and exploration beyond the city’s limits, offering freedom and flexibility to enjoy the great outdoors.



Technology Integration for a Smart Ride

Skick integrates cutting-edge technology to enhance the rider’s experience in our tech-driven world. An intuitive set of controls on the handlebars provides top speed control, light switch, and battery level, keeping users informed and in control. Including NFC means the driver has contactless control to turn on/off the Skick.


For tech-savvy consumers, Skick offers more than just mobility; it delivers an intelligent ride that aligns with modern lifestyle needs. The seamless integration of technology transforms Skick into a personal assistant on wheels, ensuring every ride is as efficient and enjoyable as possible.
