Electric Scooter Guide

“The newly-introduced Xr Elite is the best GOTRAX scooter yet.”

“This is the fastest scooter you can fit in your trunk.”

It can go double the distance of the M365 with 45.2 kilometers of tested real-world range, and it's slightly faster than electric scooters from the sharing market with a 28.7 kmh top speed.

“The Eagle Pro is fast but isn’t stealing any best-in-class times from other extreme performance scooters.”

“The NIU KQi2 Pro is an impressive electric scooter from a company we’re extremely excited about. We think it is one of the very best choices for new riders because it’s an easy, fun, and high-quality ride with a price and warranty that seems too good to be true. NIU is one of the top companies we'll be watching in the coming years. So, is it the best electric scooter you can get right now for under 600 dollars? In a word, yes.”

The 60V Apollo Pro is one of the fastest high-performance scooters we've ever tested. Made of forged aluminum with a solid stem, sporty, clean lines, and attractive accent details, the build is as strong as the ride.

"Overall, the TurboAnt X7 Pro is a lot like an everyday ant: small and light itself but able to carry weight, packing good features for its size."

Like its predecessors, the Zero 8X has quality construction and some of the best low-end acceleration and braking performance we’ve ever tested.

The Neon's acceleration and braking are definitely more laid back than sporty, but it's got power where you need it: hills.

Hands down, the Ghost is the best value when it comes to motor power per dollar for record-breaking acceleration and top speed..

Acceleration is easy to control with the grippy rubber thumb throttle, and it’s deceptively quick.

“Providing a truly solid longer ranged scooter for a reasonable price.”

“The Inokim Light 2 is a premium scooter designed by the legendary Nimrod Sapir, which many consider to be the father of electric scooters. The Light 2 is an ultraportable electric scooter that is designed to be very easy to use and ride. It incorporates a lot of features like the thumb-style throttle, easy locking slot, and low center-of-gravity deck, which make it a pleasure to use and a smart city commuter.”

“The G4 is a well-rounded entry-level commuter worthy of attention and may end up replacing more expensive scooters in the shopping carts of savvy scooter buyers given its complete feature set on a budget.”

"The Speedway 5 is a very well-constructed, time-tested, powerful, dual-motor scooter built by MiniMotors."

The Xiaomi M365 is an amazingly capable entry-level scooter that does everything well -- and better than any other scooter within a couple hundred dollars. It is easy to recommend the M365 at its current $350 to $400 price tag.

The NIU KQi2 Pro has the strong potential to rival Segway-Ninebot. We don't say that lightly.

The Kaabo Mantis Pro is one of the best electric scooters in the world — striking the right balance of functionality, power, range, and weight.

“Beefed up with a new 1000-watt motor, the Cruiser is faster than ever, and conquers even steeper hills while still retaining everything we love about it.”

“The GT Sport scooter boasts an impressive 500 W motor, capable of producing a peak output of up to 700 W, making it a frontrunner among lightweight scooters in terms of power. Although it holds its own in this category, it falls short when compared to the sleek, dual-motor Unagi Model One, which performs admirably even when carrying heavy riders.”

The G30LP is an excellent (albeit boring) entry-level scooter as it builds on what the original Max already does well: a dependable, comfortable, user-friendly ride in a stout design."

With excellent ride quality, a solid, good-looking build, and an exceptional feature set for beginners, the Apollo Air is a great, low-maintenance introduction to electric scooters for riders up to 100 kg.

The Varla Eagle One Pro scooter is also impressive with a well above trend top speed per dollar, exceptional range per pound, and great braking per dollar.

Inokim promises a balance of portability, power, and range with their ultra-premium commuter, the Quick 4 Super.

The UM-1 electric scooter delivers more without being over the top. It is sufficient as a first and last-mile commuter scooter – with the added benefit of being an excellent hill climber.

"It sets itself apart from the crowd with its looks and surprising stats for the price, but pales in comparison when it comes to build and ride quality. It’s a well-performing scooter for someone that can tune it along the way." 

You need to have some riding experience under your belt to not only appreciate what the Phantom can do but also to keep it under control.

The Wolf King GT ... is everything a flagship scooter should be: fast, solid, and absolutely state-of-the-art. Kaabo has set a new standard for build quality and performance per dollar.

“This scooter’s performance is stunning.”

New major player in the micro Mobility Arena

“Best ride for chill cruising.”

"It is one of the most portable electric scooters available on the market today."
