Elala Lite
For people who pack one black tee, eight times.
At 8.2 kg the Lite is the lightest Elala and the easiest to lift into an overhead locker. You still get 40 litres of packing space, a cushioned seat moulded into the lid and a motorised front wheel that does up to 18 km/h on private property.

The 96.2 Wh battery is under the 100 Wh airline limit and slides out without tools. Put it in its own tray at screening, then in your cabin bag. The case itself is carry-on size. Full airline guide.
Questions
Can I take an Elala on a plane?
Yes on most airlines. Every Elala uses a removable 96.2 Wh battery, which is under the 100 Wh carry-on limit. The battery always travels in your cabin bag, never in checked luggage. The Lite, Pro and Master are carry-on sized; the P28 is a checked bag. Airline rules vary (United lists the Pro as not approved), so check with Air New Zealand, Qantas or your carrier before you fly.
How fast does it go?
Up to 18–26 km/h depending on the model, on private property. On NZ footpaths, NZTA says ride at a speed that doesn’t put other people at risk and give way to pedestrians, so in terminals and crowds use the slowest mode.
How far does it go on a charge?
About 10 km, which covers the longest airport walks several times over. A full charge takes about 60 minutes, and the battery’s USB-C port can charge a phone up to 6 times.
How much weight can it carry?
Riders up to about 110 kg (Lite, Pro, Master) or 130 kg (P28), plus around 11 kg hands-free carry when you’re walking it. The Master and P28 are rated for two riders.
