About Mearth Electric Scooter
Mearth Electric Scooters is an Australian micro-mobility company based in Sydney, Australia, founded by Ming Ye, a 1st generation Australian citizen who graduated in Mechatronics Engineering at the University of Sydney (USYD) in Australia. Mearth was the dream he built to live.
While the ideation of Mearth began in 2015, the company was officially registered in 2017 after brainstorming a ride revolution and until today, it continues to focus on the creation, innovation, and development of electric scooters. Having years of experience in the industry, Mearth knew it was time to expand to the Land of the Long White Cloud.
The Best Long-Range Electric Scooter
When it comes to trips, whether work or pleasure, most definitely, you’ll want a ride that can take you further. And for long rides, you’ll want a powerful motor and battery, secure tires, and impressive brakes. All of these qualities you can find with the Mearth RS Electric Scooter.
Why RS? The Mearth RS Series stands for Racing Sport because it is the brand’s ultimate long-range electric scooter, made for competitive riders who want to run the world, literally and figuratively.
The Mearth RS Series has come a long way with the initial development early in July 2021 and launched later in September of the same year. And just recently, Mearth released the latest, the newest, and most improved version of it – the 2023 Mearth RS Series!

But that’s not all, the other series Mearth carries like the entry-level S Series and the flagship GTS Evo Series were all given an upgrade as well! So take a pick of your choice electric scooter, and reach out to Mearth!
