Buying decision

The differences that matter

  1. The NAMI publishes 8,400 W peak versus the Thunder 3 catalogue's 5,400 W verified peak figure.
  2. Dualtron claims 170 km versus NAMI's 150 km; ScootFinder estimates 119 km and 105 km respectively.
  3. Their weights are nearly identical at 47.3 kg and 47 kg.
  4. NAMI supports 150 kg versus Dualtron's 120 kg limit.
  5. The Thunder 3 was sold out at iScoot when checked; current NAMI naming and stock should also be confirmed carefully.
Australian rules

Legality is state dependent

Dualtron Thunder 3: Exceeds the 25 km/h legal class. Private property only in every state and territory unless it can be speed limited.

NAMI Burn-E Viper Max (40Ah): Exceeds the 25 km/h legal class. Private property only in every state and territory unless it can be speed limited.

Speed capability is only one part of the rule. Rider age, licence requirements, where you ride and local speed limits also matter. Check the current state-by-state guide before riding.
