About Nipponia

Country of Origin: Greece (brand/design) with Asian manufacturing
Founder: Sotiris Kolovos and partners (Nipponia S.A.)
Best Known For: EU-market scooters and small motorcycles blending European design and Asian value

Company History

Despite the Japanese-sounding name, Nipponia is a Greek-led brand that designs scooters and small motorcycles for European urban riders, then manufactures via Asian partners to meet price targets. The formula is familiar but well executed: EU-homologated electrics and emissions gear, practical storage, and corrosion-aware finishes, backed by regional distributors who stock spares. Styling cues lean clean and modern rather than retro pastiche; ergonomics suit short urban hops and delivery work. The brand has also engaged with electrification, offering simple, appliance-like e-scooters where incentives and infrastructure make sense. Historically, Nipponia reflects the modern mobility supply chain: design and compliance expertise anchored in Europe, cost-effective production abroad, and local aftersales that determines reputation. Done well, it yields scooters that simply work—quietly shrinking cities for students and workers who need reliable, low-cost transport.
