Even after its official debut in the Vietnamese market and a long list of changes since the first prototype, the N1-S is far from finished.
NUEN MOTO’s first electric motorcycle was never meant to be a final, fixed product. It was designed from day one as an open platform — one that evolves with you, adapts to your style, gets smarter with every ride, and grows alongside your life.
FROM PROTOTYPE TO PRE-PRODUCTION: “PERFECTION DOESN’T EXIST”
Before the first N1-S prototype rolled out in September 2024, our Product Development team at NUEN MOTO had already gone through countless experiments, calculations, and late-night debates to shape a vehicle that would best fit the market’s needs. But let’s be real: perfection is a myth.
Once the prototype took form, we began testing with a wider group of users, at a faster pace — not just to validate the assumptions we had, but to uncover new ideas and fine-tune every aspect before entering the pre-production design phase.
From a rear swingarm that felt too bulky and heavy, to oversized tires that reduced range, to handlebar switches that required too many hidden gestures — every piece of feedback was noted, analyzed, and turned into action.
That’s why the Pre-Production version of the N1-S now comes with a set of meaningful upgrades:
-
All-new switch cluster: Stronger, smarter layout with a separate Cruise Control button — easier to operate with a single press.
-
Refined swingarm: Slimmer and lighter for better agility, and optimized for more efficient manufacturing.
-
Smaller rear tire and wheel: Reduced weight, quicker acceleration, better energy efficiency, and lower replacement cost.
-
New battery system: From a single 8kW pack to two 4kW packs running in parallel — improving performance and opening the door for future low-performance variants.
And these changes won’t be the last. At NUEN MOTO, we see every product as a living, breathing entity — constantly evolving with new technologies, shifting user behavior, and design improvements. So you can always ride something that feels more like you.
N1-S: A CORE FRAME WITH INFINITE POSSIBILITIES
The N1-S was developed as a base mode — versatile and highly customizable. While it embodies the soul of an Urban Scrambler built for the city, it doesn’t force you into one type of usage or one particular identity.
NUEN MOTO understands that no two riders are the same. Your bike should reflect your lifestyle, your rhythms, and how you move through the world.
Imagine a crisp early morning, setting off from Saigon toward Đà Lạt. You’re carrying light luggage for a weekend escape and need stability on mountain roads, space for a tailbox, and a frame strong enough to handle the long haul. → In this case, a rear rack, luggage box, crash bars, and skid plates aren’t just accessories — they’re your travel buddies.
Or maybe you’re the adventurous type who thrives on dirt trails and off-road paths through the national parks. → The N1-S can be equipped with a reinforced battery cover, multi-point CNC crash guards, and screen protectors — giving you the confidence to ride rough terrain without fear of damage.
Some riders simply want a bike that turns heads on the weekend café run — a ride that doesn’t just perform but also lookslike an extension of themselves. From CNC belly plates to sculpted frame protectors, laser-cut logos, and custom paintwork, the N1-S can be your personal statement piece — not just a means of transportation.
NUEN MOTO doesn’t just hand you a motorcycle — we give you a solid, smart, and flexible foundation to create an N1-S that’s truly yours.
THE FUTURE OF THE N1-S: MORE THAN JUST AN ELECTRIC MOTORCYCLE
In one of our many brainstorming sessions, Hãn Hoàng – Co-founder of NUEN MOTO – threw out a question that continues to shape our vision:
“What if the bike wasn’t just a vehicle — but a smart companion?”
This idea wasn’t born out of flashy tech specs. It came from a very human place: the desire for something that understands you, rides with you, supports you. Like how your smartwatch knows you’ve been moving more today or reminds you when it’s time to rest.
So… what if your electric motorcycle could learn, adapt, and suggest things at the right moment?
From day one, the N1-S app was designed to bridge you and your machine:
-
Real-time dashboard: See battery level, speed, odometer, remaining range, battery/motor/controller temperature — all at a glance.
-
GPS location tracking: Quickly find your bike in a crowded parking lot.
-
Charging station locator: Get nearby charging spots and optimal routes.
-
Remote lock/unlock: Added security for unexpected situations.
-
Maintenance & error alerts: Get notified of potential issues, estimated repair costs, and book service appointments easily.
-
OTA updates: Your bike gets smarter every month — without you ever needing to swap parts. Plus, our engineers can remotely diagnose problems if something happens mid-adventure.
And maybe, in the not-so-distant future — as AI becomes more accessible — we’ll have a true smart riding companion.
-
Behavior-based reminders: “You usually leave at 8:00 AM — but your battery’s at 22%. Better charge it tonight.”
-
Proactive warnings: “Your motor is running hotter than usual after that uphill ride. Let’s take a short break.”
-
Optimized routes: “There’s traffic ahead on your usual route. Here’s an alternative that’s 12 minutes faster.”
-
Calendar sync: “You’ve got a 9:30 AM meeting in District 2. Leaving by 8:45 will help you beat the early rain.”
The N1-S won’t just obey commands — it’ll listen, understand, and support you on every road ahead.
This is the beginning of a new chapter in electric motorcycling.
TO WRAP IT UP
The future is wide open — full of unexpected turns and endless possibilities. No product is ever perfect from the start. But with the N1-S — and with everything we’re building at NUEN MOTO — we’re committed to making it better, every single day.
From firmware updates and new customization parts to quiet, under-the-hood improvements — everything we do has one purpose: to give you a machine that grows with you.
Because for us, this journey isn’t just about making an electric motorcycle.
It’s about building a living, intelligent, and emotionally connected experience between rider and ride.
And the N1-S is just the beginning.
