Focus on the cost of an e-scooter with street registration: the Sol Pocket Rocket (45 km/h)
Electric scooters are the future of mobility - they are not only environmentally friendly, but also extremely economical. With the Sol Pocket Rocket in the 45 km/h version you drive quietly and emission -free through the streets. But the best thing about it? You get extremely cheap from A to B. In this article we take a closer look at which costs are connected to an e-scooter like the SOL Pocket Rocket-from tax exemption to low maintenance costs to almost unbeatable electricity prices. Spoiler: You drive 100 kilometers for well below one euro!
1. No vehicle tax
One of the greatest advantages of an electric scooter is the liberation from the vehicle tax. Regardless of whether you drive an electric car or an e-scooter like the SOL Pocket Rocket-you do not pay a cent of car taxes until at least December 31, 2030. This regulation goes back to the Motor Vehicle Tax Act (KraftStG), more precisely on § 3D KraftStG, which defines a complete exemption from the vehicle tax for purely electrically operated vehicles.
Your savings per year: About 200 euros compared to a vehicle with an internal combustion engine.
For people who want to be sustainable, electric vehicles are a fantastic option. With the annual costs for taxes and fees, the SOL Pocket Rocket thus strikes traditional scooters and cars. That means more money in your wallet and less burden on the environment.
2. Lower maintenance costs
Another advantage: fewer parts, fewer problems. In a combustion engine there are countless moving parts that can wear out - cylinders, chains, catalysts and much more. In contrast, an e-scooter like the Sol Pocket Rocket has a much easier structure. The electric motor sits directly on the rear axle, and the force is transferred directly to the rear wheel without a complicated chain.
The result? Less wear, fewer repairs and thus significantly lower maintenance costs. The annual maintenance costs for the Sol Pocket Rocket amount to around 150 euros - compared to a conventional petrol roller, a significant saving.
Also remember: no oil change, no exhaust system and no gearbox that you save you many of the usual maintenance problems. The only real effort for an e-scooter is the regular review of the battery and brakes.
3. Cheap insurance contributions
E-scooters like the Sol Pocket Rocket are not only cheap to maintain, but also with the insurance. If you want to use the scooter on the street, you only need liability insurance. Fortunately, the insurance contributions for electric scooters are particularly low - often they start at around 29.90 euros per year.
Partial comprehensive or fully comprehensive insurance is often not necessary for an electric scooter that is not too expensive, so that you also save costs again. For comparison: the insurance contributions for cars or larger motorcycles can quickly amount to several hundred euros a year.
4. Low electricity costs
Now comes the most exciting part - the operating costs. The consumption of an e-scooter naturally depends on the engine power and the battery capacity, but one thing is certain: With the Sol Pocket Rocket you drive extremely cheap. Since the electricity prices are significantly lower compared to gasoline, you can get away particularly economically here.
On average, the Sol Pocket Rocket consumes less than 1 euro per 100 kilometers at a current price of around 40 cents per kilowatt hour. Yes, right - under one euro! For comparison: With a conventional petrol roller, you pay 5 to 6 euros for 100 kilometers quickly, depending on the gasoline price and consumption.
This means that you are not only quiet and emission -free with the Sol Pocket Rocket, but also protect your wallet. Even with increasing electricity prices, the operation of an e-scooter remains many times cheaper than with a vehicle with an combustion engine.
Further advantages of an e-scooter
In addition to the financial aspects, there are many other advantages that speak for switching to an electric scooter. The Sol Pocket Rocket is not only environmentally friendly, but also particularly quiet. Not an annoying engine noise and no exhaust gases - you can glide through the city almost silently. This makes not only the environment, but also your neighbors happy.
Another plus is easy operation. E-scooters are usually easy to control and require little technical knowledge. There is no switching and the acceleration is very linear and gentle compared to conventional scooters. This makes them ideal for city traffic, where frequent stop-and-go is announced.
Is an electric scooter right for you?
Of course, the question arises: Is an electric scooter like the Sol Pocket Rocket the right choice for you? If you mostly attract short distances in the city, the answer is a clear yes. E-scooters are perfect for urban space, where you rarely drive high speeds and where frequent stopping and starting is the order of the day. Due to their compact design and the low operating costs, they are ideal for commuters who want to get from A to B quickly and inexpensively.
Conclusion: The Sol Pocket Rocket - cheap, environmentally friendly and future -proof

Thanks to the liberation from the vehicle tax, low maintenance and insurance costs and extremely low electricity prices, you drive far below the costs of a petrol roller.
