is there a way to change dash to older type?

👍🏻thanks! The Niu homepage is a nightmare. The model names are even worse. If Niu wants to be successful in Europe, they have to understand the specs that drive us & the much older "new vehicle buyers" compared to China. Also our different driving culture. 90% of Chinese are extremely poor & live in rural areas. The "rich" live in overcrowded "megacities" of vast dimensions. I doubt that "joy-riding to the country side for a nice meal" is a thing in China. Probably neither in USA, Australia etc. The greatest 2-wheeler brands come from Japan & Europe - both overpopulated in a similar way. *Finding specs that matter is equally easy* on Honda & Piaggio & BMW homepages etc.
Niu tried to compensate their lack of monetary success with 3 price hikes in 12 months. That strategy will drive them deeper into trouble. Chinese brands have lost tons of attractiveness during the last 12 months. Sunra (one of the largest EV-Scooter producers globally, located in China) has increased prices a little. Niu's top model moved from 3.999 to 5.700 € & caused tons of troubles/ dissatisfaction in the first months of it's market entry 14 months ago. Some sort of battery issue I think. Also, it's just not a good Niu model. I waited 2 years for the model (yeahh, stupid Niu brand names) & walked into into the shop - determined to buy it. Thankfully I did a test drive beforehand. Worst "curve" handling that I ever experienced in a 125 cc. A Vespa from 1960 would have performed better.
Anyhow, as you deduced my from my English: I am German. This time I want to give the 80 kmh model a try & can't find ANY relevant info anywhere. *Your video is the first helpful one I found on the upgraded/faster model*. 👍🏻 No 2-wheel magazine or influencer channel in D-A-CH (=the 3 German countries) seems to cover NIU anymore. The up-grade to 50 miles per hour is very significant in our region, since many roads have a 50 mpH speed limit (dare you, if you can't keep up with 50mpH. It's really dangerous to enter those roads with a slower vehicle). I am talking about the daily fight to get to work from close outskirt villages around e.g. Berlin, Frankfurt, Munich.
Anyhow. I bought a lot of NIU shares after driving my first NIU, because I was convinced that NIU would change the business. But Niu headquarter is too narrow minded to seek advice & learn & *adapt*. They could simply name their models after famous game changers in electricity & batteries. THOSE I could remember. Or ANYTHING but SENSLESS combinations of letters & numbers.
In my town of 500.000 people, the NIU store changed owners & place 3-4x in 18 months. Before that, it had the same owner & location since NIU came to our town (=less than 10 years).
