Is the VSETT 9+ legal in Australia?

Can I ride the VSETT 9+ in Queensland?
QLD maximum capability exceeds 25 km/h. The transition through 28 February 2027 requires manufacture before 1 July 2026 and former compliance; neither a model year nor an app setting proves it. Confirm the exact unit; do not ride on this result. General rule: age 16+ and a valid learner-or-higher driver licence.

A model year or app mode does not establish this exception; we do not presume it for unverified units. 12 km/h on footpaths and crossings, and when passing pedestrians on shared paths.
