EDPM Decree:
Evo-Spirit is Compliant

Ride legally on the road in urban areas

Evo-Spirit, a long-standing player in electric mobility in France, complies with the new decree on EDPMs (Motorised Personal Mobility Devices) published on 25/10/2019. Our electric skateboards and electric scooters finally have a legal status.

Evo Spirit compliant with the EDPM decree for electric mobility
Good news

This decree is an authorisation, not a restriction

Some see the decree as a restriction on use… But it's the opposite. Previously, electric scooters were officially banned everywhere, even if a tolerance had existed for 10 years.

Today you can legally ride on the road in urban areas, with the main constraint being limited to 25 km/h. Evo-Spirit anticipated these technical constraints to make all its models compliant.

Our Devices

What changes depending on your device

🛴 Electric Scooters

All our scooters are limited to 25 km/h, equipped with a bell, front and rear lights, and reflectors on the sides to be visible at night.

🛹 Electric Skateboards

Two versions to choose from. The EDPM version, limited to 25 km/h with lights, reflectors, and a finger bell. The Sport version, unrestricted, reserved exclusively for private land.

You can have both remote controls and choose depending on how you ride.

🏍 Scooters and Motorbikes

Evo-Spirit electric scooters and motorbikes are not affected by this decree: they are already road-approved in the L1e-B category.

Do you have an older model?
