The company raised $150 million with the shared investments of HTC's founder Cher Wang and co-founder Matt Taylor who is Luke's colleagues. Defined as the world's admirable ebike, the smartscooter started from nothing but purely designs. It was derived from Taiwan, being the top rated country in owning the coolest scooters worldwide, Gogoro, built the smartscooter little by little, until finally they arrived in the most innovative way and the best in finding answers on every tiny necessity of ebikes around the globe.

From 0 to 50 kph (31 mph) in 4.2 seconds, is the Gogoro smart electric scooter's regular rate of travel. It can reach up to a maximum of 60 kph which then is slightly comparable to the 57 kph of Vespa 946.

In order to maintain competitiveness and reduce user costs, the company allowed scooter drivers to rent chargers at any charging stations. It is assumed that users should estimate the significant savings, as batteries have been always costed a considerable part of the total price of electric cars.

The idea of an electric car without a battery is not new in the automotive world, but the predecessors of Horace Luke suffered a fiasco in this field. The creator of Gogoro enterprise, consisting of 364 employees, working in surprisingly well-coordinated manner, managed to achieve an amazing result. The result of this work was the innovative scooter Smartscooter, simple and at the same time quite spectacular.
