Jasion Poki Review: A Wild, Overpowered Electric Minibike

The Jasion Poki is an intensely powerful electric minibike blending retro styling with modern performance. Priced at $1,799 (with a 5% discount available using the code Electrek), it features a central mid-drive motor delivering a massive 6,720W of peak power, though the early review model carried a 2kW label. The setup churns out 260 N·m of raw, low-end torque. Energy is stored in a 60V 30Ah lithium-ion battery housed under the seat, creating a relatively high center of gravity. While Jasion claims a top speed of 50 mph, a 200-lb rider managed 44 mph while crouched on flat ground. Range is rated at up to 60 miles, though cruising at 30-40 mph cuts that estimate nearly in half. The bike tips the scales at a substantial 137.5 lbs, making manual transport a heavy lift, though loosening the handlebars helps it fit easily into an SUV. Designed low to the ground, it features a large, wide seat supporting a total weight capacity of up to 350 lbs, complete with passenger pegs and a front basket. It also includes a synced Bluetooth speaker in the rear that mimics a Harley exhaust note. Review notes highlight concerns over high-speed stability on tiny wheels and the heavy weight, suggesting a lower top speed cap and an aluminum frame to improve safety and portability.
