Charge Smart, Ride Far - Tips For Safe Charging
April 23, 2025
We asked our team their tips and tricks for safely charging your Powerpacks.
At Fonz Moto, sustainability isn't just a buzzword—it's built into everything we do. As passionate advocates for a cleaner, greener future, we’re committed to reducing our environmental footprint while keeping our electric vehicles on the road longer, smarter, and stronger.
Electric vehicles, like all machines, eventually need repairs and upgrades. But instead of letting our scooters end up in landfill, our expert technicians get to work—restoring, reconditioning, and upgrading earlier FONZ models so they can be re-loved by the next generation of riders.
These aren’t just quick touch-ups. Our team can fully replace a scooter’s powertrain and install newer, more efficient technology. This means a refreshed ride that meets modern performance standards—ready to roll again with renewed energy and extended life.
As part of our Battery Recycling Program, the older Powerpacks are responsibly dismantled and sent to certified recycling partners. There, they’re broken down into raw materials that can be repurposed for second-life applications, helping to close the loop on our EV ecosystem.
The launch of the Arthur 7 model brought with it a wave of excitement—and a surge in vehicle upgrades. We saw an unprecedented number of riders trading in their older scooters for the latest model. But at Fonz Moto, it’s not just about selling something new—it’s about what we do with the old.
Each traded-in scooter is an opportunity. Rather than simply reselling them on the aftermarket, we give them a second life. With reconditioning and component upgrades, many of these scooters are ready for another 5+ years of sustainable service on the road.
One of the key upgrades we've introduced is the FONZ Gen 2 controller. This latest innovation delivers improved power distribution, smoother acceleration, and an overall elevated riding experience. Best of all, it’s not just for new Arthur 7 models.
All 2023 Arthur and Fonzarelli models are eligible for this upgrade, giving existing riders the chance to replace aging components while also boosting performance. It's a perfect example of our philosophy: don't just replace—improve.
The FONZ Battery Recycling Program is a cornerstone of our sustainability mission. When a vehicle’s powertrain reaches the end of its life, we replace it with new tech while ensuring the old Powerpack doesn't go to waste. Our recycling partners disassemble each pack into its raw components, which are then repurposed for second-life uses—reducing reliance on virgin materials and helping conserve valuable resources.
Even better? This entire process is subsidised by Fonz Moto, making it easier for riders to do the right thing for the planet.
In an exciting move to empower the next generation of environmentally conscious riders, Fonz Moto now offers 20% off the list price of any certified pre-loved FONZ model for full-time Australian students. Our goal is simple: make quality, zero-emission transport more accessible and affordable.
We believe students deserve to ride in style and sustainability—without breaking the bank.
At Fonz Moto, we're not just building electric scooters. We're creating a circular system where vehicles are continually upgraded, parts are repurposed, and nothing goes to waste. It's about breathing new life into every ride—not just for today, but for the years ahead.
Join us on the journey to a cleaner future. Because every ride can make a difference.
