Ninebot MAX G3 Plus/G3 / G2 Electric Scooter for Adult, UL Certified

This is my first E-Scooter purchase. I was in the market to buy one for a while but setbacks kept me from making the purchase. I researched tirelessly until I realized it's best for me to try and ride one for reference. So I saw Unagi has a rental service and I rented a Model One. It had dual motors for hills which I thought was necessary for hill climbing on my commute. While the scooter was decent it lacked suspension and the solid and tiny all rubber tires just made me come home with achy knees, ankles, and neck. The stem wobbled and just felt like it would eventually break. So I thought I needed a dual motor full suspension scooter which tended to be the high-speed ones that cost over $1200. I went to test drive a bunch that went over 30 MPH. They were all heavy and I knew I couldn't have something over 60 lbs and they were just too much power for me with jerky throttles. Then the G2 came out and I watched reviews and saw that this was considered a huge upgrade from the very popular G30 Max that I saw everywhere because of the suspension. So I took the plunge and ordered the G2. I absolutely love this thing. Tubeless 10" air-filled tires, check. Hydraulic suspension in the front which tends to be found on scooters way more expensive WITH dual spring adjustable suspension in the rear, check. Solid build quality with a manageable yet enjoyable commuter-friendly top-speed, check. Solid wobble-free stem at top speed, check. It has great torque and acceleration and on every hill, I've tried it on on your usual NYC streets, it handles with ease going faster than even the dual-motor Unagi at an average speed of 17 MPH. The brakes are good but I'd recommend setting the regen electrical breaks to medium to assist. I've had no high-temperature failures like some have mentioned nor any of the other programming bugs others have also mentioned. I believe the Universe made sure that I didn't purchase a scooter I'd regret buying and made sure I waited for this perfect scooter to come along. The ONLY issue is the weight since I have 6 flights of steps with my top floor apartment but the trade-off with the suspension is worth it. I have no pain in my body after riding this scooter around for even long rides. It just glides over everything. It is the absolute best way to get around NYC and I find myself not wanting to drive at all. It has transformed my Summer as I can easily explore my neighborhood and others close by with ease and comfort. The G30 Max is a legend but they say once you've had a scooter with suspension there's no going back and I can tell you for sure that is very true. Spend a bit more money (if you can) and get the G2 over the G30. Your joints will thank you, believe me. If you are over 200 lbs I'd recommend waiting until Segway fixes the issue with overheating since it seems like this happens with heavy riders since its max weight limit is 265 lbs. This is all the scooter you need for daily urban commuting with all the potholes, road cracks, uneven pavement, and hills like in NYC.

I have been getting more and more into commuting locally to nearby grocery stores and whatnot with my bike and I wanted something a little faster and easier especially when it gets hotter. I loooooove this scooter. Default right out of the box it is perfect for me. Battery life is great, range is great, the suspension is unbelievably good. For ~$650 this thing is a steal. No assembly at all. The only thing I can even imagine that might be a concern is the weight, if you want one you can pick up and carry around that would be tough, but I don't ever need to do that, just lift it into the back of the car if I am taking it away from my community.

I bought a Max G30 in 2020 and my daughter and I have loved it. Accumulated 700+ miles thus far. She’s beat on it and it’s survived well. I just checked the battery via the app and in exactly 5 years it’s only lost 5% capacity. That’s in cold winter garages and hot summer suns. She wanted a second scooter so her friend wasn’t riding shotgun with her and found this G2. I didn’t think they could improve upon it, but boy did they. It’s larger, it’s faster, it’s more powerful and most importantly, it has suspension. That is my biggest gripe with the G30, it’s such a rough ride, I used to ride it with nearly flat tires (which provides noticeable cushion). The G2 is a dream. All the frills are fun (horn, turn signal) and it’s bigger, more adult sized. The smartphone activation is annoying, but that’s the name of the game in the 21st century. Just silly for the older generations. Having said that, the information it provides on the screen, the telemetry, is interesting. The app works well, which is a rare bonus. She now has two. That’s what she wanted for her birthday. The days of kids on bicycles are gone. They all now have scooters. But at least her and I can go riding now.

Update: I took it down to one star because even riding at at 10-12 MPH I'm lucky to get 15 miles before the battery is done. So that's only about 7.5 miles each way. Segway says 25 miles even if you're cranking it at max 22MPH. I think I overpaid by a lot for something that can't even hit 20 miles at slow speeds. The biggest problem I'm having with this scooter is that the power curve is so jerky. Trying to hold it at one speed so that the cruise control will activate is very hard, at least in part because the power seems to either be fully on or fully off. Once the cruise activates it's fine, but it takes a long time to get there. It's also just not a great experience to have the scooter jerking forward when you're holding the accelerator steady. I'm also still not finding the scooter as stable as others I've ridden. The scooter is lifted up off the ground, and the handlebars are wider than most which, for me, contributes to it feeling somewhat unstable during anything other than cruising in a straight line. I may get used to it but right now it feels a little bit like a design problem. I've done some reading, and the jerkiness is a common complaint with Segway Ninebots. Can it be fixed someday with firmware? It seems like it should be possible, but they haven't done so yet. Find My was a little finicky at first but seems stable now and reports its location which is nice should the scooter every be stolen. On the upside it was easy to assemble, just a few screws, and the build quality at least at a surface level looks good. Be aware that the screws can come loose, 5 of the 6 screws loosened up on me to the point that the handlebar was rattling. The included allen wrench is OK but is cheap metal that doesn't let you torque the screws down hard. The suspension definitely is an upgrade from my last scooter that had no suspension (and solid tires). I do like the fact that eco mode can get you 40 miles out of the battery, but you do have to be going 10 MPH on level ground to get that much distance. In sport + (must be activated in the app) the scooter can hit 22 MPH which feels very fast and chews up the battery much faster. Overall I actually like the scooter, but they really need to fix the jerkiness issue when not cruising. It ruins the experience. Also, a better allen wrench is pretty important given you don't want those screws loosening up on you.

So much fun! This scooter is durable, comfortable to ride, and such an overall fun experience. I almost regret buying it because now I'm addicted. My only issue that keeps it from a perfect score is the range. It's a lot better than other scooters I have ridden, but there comes a point where I genuinely feel that these companies need to be sued for how they advertise the range on their scooters. I get about 17 miles of range on even terrain in sports mode and I am about 187 pounds. Also, the max speed drops to 18 MPH once the scooter reaches 50-55% battery, which is something else that is not advertised. Despite these valid issues this is a very fun scooter to ride and I highly recommend it.

Best quality ever!! ❤️I don't even know how to ride a bike and this is my first scooter!!!! TIP: to steer it, it’s NOT with the handlebars, it’s with your eyes; you look at the line on the road or a fixed point and that’s where you’ll go!! I hope this tip helps someone, it’s very important. Oh!! To start, push the scooter back a little and then forward to go!! That way you reduce the failed attempts in the middle of the street, so embarrassing hahaha🤣 ​Today I went to work on my new Segway G2 scooter!!! When I arrived I asked the manager to take a photo of me with it, I'm so happy!!!!❤️The brakes are so SAFE , u can stop on the stop safely !!!!the battery life it's like FOREVER!!!❤️❤️Range it's perfect too!!!omg, it feels incredible!! It's so safe and easy that it arrived on Thursday and by Friday I was already on it at 16km/h in a park and did 5 miles!!! And today Sunday, May 10th, I went to and from work on the scooter!!! omg, there is a main avenue with an intersection that has horrible potholes and the scooter is the Boss, it’s the master!!! omg, I felt like I was driving an all-terrain SUV!! It literally flew in the air and ate it for breakfast haha the pothole said: howdy! and the scooter said: huh?? the pothole stayed silent and the Segway G2 scooter said: yeah that's what i thought!!!!!

This scooter is AMAZING! My kids use it and so do my husband and I. We have gone MILES. It's a nice smooth ride, feels quite steady and secure. Battery life is pretty great. It has awesome power, hauls ass to be exact. Super easy to use at any age- well. almost any age. Pricy but high quality!

Have owned for about a month now. I use this as my primary mode of transportation, and this is the fourth and most expensive scooter I've owned. I didn't realize how much a suspension matters and how much I've avoided longer distances. I had such a fun and breezy 25m ride from West Hollywood to Hollywood yesterday. Pros: - Smoothest ride of all the scooters I've ridden. - Comfortable on bumpy roads and longer commutes. - Sport mode is fun if you're agile on a scooter. Acceleration is quick. - Nice and speedy! Cons: - On the heavy side if you need to carry it ever. I strength-train 4x a week, so it's manageable to get down a little bit of stairs into my building, but I do have to brace my body hard to avoid tweaking my back. - The stem is TALL, so the handlebars sit notably higher than a city rental scooter (like Bird or Lime). It was an adjustment to steer with my arms higher (I'm 5'9"). If you're shorter than I am, I could see this being uncomfortable. Overall turning out to be my favorite scooter that I've owned, and a much less expensive alternative to owning a car in a major city if your commutes are mainly short/medium distances. Love being able to zip through traffic and avoid having to find parking anywhere.

tenia un segway f30s y la diferencia es muy notoria, las pendientes que me costaban subir con el otro, con este sin problemas, los amortiguadores ayudan mucho, lo que estoy de acuerdo con otros comentarios, es que tiene un ruido en la llanta y no se lo detecto, espero no genere un problema en el futuro, por eso le pongo 4 estrellas. ACTUALIZACIÓN: el ruido que mencioné ya se quitó, encontré en un foro que apretando fuertemente el freno como que liberaba algo que evitaba el ruido y efectivamente dejó de hacer el ruido, cambio mi calificación a 5 estrellas, porque jala de lujo (PD. Si está algo pesado para cargar, pero si no lo vas a estar cargando, vale mucho la pena)

The Ninebot Max G2 is a solid upgrade. The build quality is excellent, the design is modern, and it rides really well. The front and rear suspension make a big difference, much smoother than older versions. It’s fast too; I’ve hit over 36 km/h going downhill, though for city rides, you won’t need that much speed. Compared to the older Ninebots at my office, the G2 stands out in every way. If you want a reliable, comfortable, and feature-packed scooter under $1500 CAD, I highly recommend it.

Excelente scooter lo uso para ir a nadar diario, y moverme a lugares cerca de donde vivo. Se siente de muy buena calidad, y es muy rápido. La app tiene muchas opciones de configuración como: máxima velocidad en modo sport, Find My Apple, odometro, luz del freno, limite de carga de batería, contraseña de bloqueo, modo crucero, modo de recuperación de carga con frenado, entre otras cosas. Lo único negativo es que pesa mucho y es complicado andarlo cargando.

I'm no expert on electric kick scooters, but the build quality is great and the thing looks beautiful. It does great on wet pavement, including with leaves and other slippery stuff on the ground. I've done testing with traction control and without. I'd say the torque difference isn't significantly different. Your top speed is slightly lower, but it still struggles with a steep enough incline, so if you're going up very hilly terrain, or on unpaved surfaces, this might not be a good option for you. Suspension is decent for a slick-looking, integrated solution that seems like it'll handle the elements well, but it's definitely not beefy. I've taken it through washed out dirt/sandy trails and sports pitches, and it has been a fairly smooth ride, including for my son riding on the same scooter with me, but I doubt it could handle anything truly challenging on trails, and probably would kick me off with any sizable tree roots.

Yayayaya scooter is amazing, but you better be home whenever it’s delivered because if you’re not, anybody who’s driving by will be able to see what it is because it’s not wrapped up and thus fully exposing what it is and a huge “come get me” for porch Pirates.
