If it is a 2017 then it should be under warranty. Take it to the dealer you purchased it from.

That it actually starts when kicked is a valuable clue eliminating many things. The failure of the lights etc is a separate problem. The failure to continue running could be simply a vacuum line off (choke) which a new Tao Tao could have or it could be a fuel problem. A complete visual inspection is in order. Look for disconnected lines or electrical connections which are things common in a new Chinese scooter due to extreme production quotas. The lines/connectors get slapped on and shake loose during shipping.
