That's a nice one!
Recently I bought a Kawasaki Corded Impact Wrench on Amazon. It was under $100 and should be fine for working on the PCX or lawnmowers and stuff. It's heavy duty. . .large. . .may have to use two hands with it. Not as nice as yours but it did come with a carry case and 4 SAE sockets.

I'm a Ryobi guy; waiting for the brushless hammer drill to come out.
I have an older blue 1/4" drive hex impact driver ,which is good for the small stuff. A 3/8" drive impact would be nice for scooter duty jobs. 1/2" isn't really warranted. (But they're big sellers for car lug nuts)
Congrats on the new toy. I mean TOOL. ;-)

In the UK I bought a Clarke (Machine Mart, probably generic Chinese) version of that. It's only 450 Nm torque, but was better than the cordless of the time.
It has worked really well on things like stuck mower blades and car suspension, but is a bit too heavy and bulky for tight spaces.
If I were buying now it would be cordless like the OP, they seem much improved now.

Most of my battery operated yard tools are Ryobi. My cordless drills are Makita.

Ryobi... I just purchased their 40v lithium battery trimmer/weed wacker. Great price! quiet, powerful machine that recharges fairly fast but for a half acre lot it can't quite finish in one charge so you get a tea break

I kind of wish I had the 40 volt, but we have 5 of the 18 volt batteries that are shared between all sorts of equipment. The 40 volt one would be much more powerful, but it would run out of juice before we finished. I have a 3/4 acre lot.
I also recently purchased a Ryobi cordless saw that I use for quick work. It uses the same 18 volt batteries. I love it when parts are interchangeable like this. Still, if the tool fits the job and works well, I don't think who the manufacturer is will make much difference.

$79 on sale ($169) Craftsman half inch cordless impact... made short work of my massively stuck big rear axle nut which had been on the scoot for 5 yrs from the factory. I was nearly flipping the scooter over with the breaker bar and cheater.
Good tool, good price. Nobody does crazy sales like Sears.
