For those contemplating on a Segway, NIU, or Apollo scooter…. I currently have the new Ninebot Max, Apollo Go, and NIU K3 Max. The Segway is heavy, the rear shock makes a lot of noise no matter how I tune it, and it has a big footprint. It also has bad lighting at night. The problem I’m having is the braking on the Apollo, it is scary to only have a back brake that locks up the wheel if squeezed too hard. It doesn’t feel like it’s stopping the scooter. You have to rely on the regen braking to really stop the scooter. My wife has the NIU K3 Max with dual disk brakes and that things stops on a dime. The Segway also stops well, as it has two brake wires stopping front and rear wheels. However, the Apollo is fast, it feels solid, and it is my choice over the others. I’m curious about the NIU 300x, but it doesn’t have rear shocks, has a twist throttle and doesn’t go as fast. I think Apollo is the way to go! Hope this helps!

Although ESG video reviews are comprehensive I wish you guys could try the Bus or Subway test for the portable scooters to see how comfortable or doable getting in a bus with it is. Another important aspect that needs to be covered is ground clearance (great in the Go btw) with real world test on curbs, speed bumps, etc.

Your feedback is always appreciated. We'll try to get more portability stuff worked in. The apartment-shot in this one didn't come out quite as clear as I wanted it to, but you can sort of get the idea of the width difference. I'm hoping website team can get the old ESG search-tool back up on the site soon. I want people to have direct access to all the numbers we measure. I measure all of the dimensions including ground clearance to the lowest part of the scooter (usually the mount for the kickstand). -Paul

Despite all its niceties, the main issue with this scooter is the lack of overall versatility due to limited range. With reviewers seeing 14 - 19 miles max, with at least one reviewer cruising at 20mph until it would no longer sustain, which is fairly unimpressive. Apollo used 30 x 21700 cells in 10 series, 3 parallel. Had they simply gone with 40 cells in 10 Series 4 Parallel, it would have transformed this scooter into one of the most versatile units in scooter history while not giving up any of it's other fantastic attributes. Adding 10 cells would add less than 2lbs to this unit, even factoring in a slightly deeper battery tub. I wish they'd make a "max" version with 40 cells and 2-3" wider handlebars so that there was room to add an accessory or two... lights, bell, etc. I love everything else about the this scooter but the range is an issue compared to its competitors from Niu, Segway, VMAX and others.

Paul, great review. I was comparing the Apollo Go to the Emove Cruiser S and was waiting for your review. I want something compact for short commutes (7 miles). I have the NAMI Burn E2, so I don't need a long-distance scooter. The warranty gives the Apollo Go the edge for me.
@ESG-ElectricScooterGuide 4 ай бұрын
So glad I could help! You have great taste in scooters. The Cruiser S is a great scooter too, but for 7 miles of commuting the Go feels like the right choice. It's lighter and much easier to carry when you need to. Plus I just really like the ride feel of the Go. It feels very 2024 if not 2025! -Paul

Awesome review! I’m so excited to get my GO. One quick note, I’m not sure why you said the Eve cells used are a step behind Samsung. They are the same specifications and EVE is one of the best brands for batteries reliability and QC, just not recognizable yet in the US. Also they rated at over 1000 cycles according to the EVE spec sheet and are the same cells used in many EVs.
@ESG-ElectricScooterGuide 4 ай бұрын
Good to know. We'll read up more about them and adjust their standing in the reliability ratings spreadsheet accordingly. If we were to rate them the same as Samsung, it would pull the Go from a 9.3 to a 9.5 on our reliability score sheet, which would be the highest score we've recorded yet. I appreciate the feedback. -Paul

If I could wave my magic wand over the Apollo Go, I'd turn it into a 720Wh battery, give it 3" wider bars for performance riding and additional accessory room, dual disc brakes like the NIU KQi3 Max, and rubberized turn signal caps. Finally if it had a true 27-28mph speed, I'd be in heaven. Call it the "GT" the "Max" or something similarly straightforward. I would sell one of my larger dual motor rides to have two Apollo Go "GT's" in the garage because it would be so perfect! Part of me still wants to pull the trigger on this scooter due to its elegant form and build quality but can't. It seems to me that Apollo missed a real chance to make this the ultimate 50lb, dual motor, pocket rocket. In its current 540wh battery configuration, you can only ride it spiritedly for 16-19 miles. That gives me a one direction reach of about 8mi if I want to return to my starting point and still have a couple miles of reserve range, in case I hit a hill or take a wrong turn. Had they given it a 720Wh battery it would have absolutely transformed this ride into an icon of versatility. This formula would have provided about 24mi worth of "play time" while throttling back to 13-14mph would afford about 40 miles of cruise range. It would have been able to adapt to virtually any mission from hot rodding, to cruising, to commuting. Someone could argue it does that now but it's far too handcuffed for myself and a lot of other enthusiasts who put their money elsewhere after seeing the Go's range shortcoming.

No, I wouldn't want wider handlebars on an Apollo Go and the more maintenance intensive disc brakes of the Niu scooter! Reliability and portability is the Apollo Go's primary purpose and is meant for commuting in conjunction with public transit, explaining its under 50 pounds weight and compactness! Wider handlebars from my experience, are a hassle to bring through subway turnstiles and that is with my Segway Ninebot F2 Pro with 22-inch wide handlebars alone! Its disc brakes are also a hassle with the fact that I had to get it adjusted every 400 miles and already had a brake pad replaced after just 1000 miles! I had a Ninebot Max G30LP and its much narrower handlebars (much narrower than the Go's) are a breeze to pass through turnstiles and its drum brakes are still going strong after 1500 miles of riding without maintenance but I had to upgrade to a better speed and battery capacity while not drastically increasing weight and hindering portability. If you want any of your desired traits, you are better off with the Apollo City Pro or a dual motor version of the Apollo Air with the wider handlebars but you may have to wait till 2025 to get the stem light version of these. Also, the VMAX VX2 Pro GT should suit your needs if you want something lightweight as it is a Ninebot Max G30P on steroids but has a ton of power and speed although I would want it to have at least a front suspension. The Apollo Go is built for one thing and one thing only: short to mid range commuter with ease of portability and reliability unlike any other scooters and to extend its range: it is extremely friendly and maneuverable around large crowds in public transit.

For sure! The Go is smoooooth. Everything it does is smooth. The only thing you may miss are the massive brakes on your KQi3 Max. It's a matter of taste though. For normal riding around, having the dedicated regen on the Go is really nice. But if you like being able to nearly lock both brakes at the same time, that's a place the KQi3 Max has the edge. -Paul

@appearoffline 4 ай бұрын
@dgmithril The Niu 300s might be the best bet for longer riding and comfort because of the things you mentioned as well as having larger wheels. The portability of the Go and the rear suspension is an advantage. I guess the Go might suit you more if you have that _need for speed._ 🏎🍃

Hmmm. Normally, I’d say “no”, but coming from a Phantom, you’re used to a certain amount of adrenaline when you hit the throttle. The Go isn’t at all an adrenaline machine.

Far easier! 20 in. wide handlebars vs 26 in. wide handlebars is a mammoth of a difference between the Go and the City or Air! Even with my lightweight, 41 pound Segway Ninebot F2 Pro with 22.5 inch-wide handlebars, it was already a significant hassle just to maneuver it around the fare turnstiles of the NYC subway system due to the handlebars being a bit too wide that I literally have to angle and lift the front of the scooter just to go through! It would be nearly impossible to do that with the Apollo City or Air with their whopping 26 inch-wide handlebars even when the latter is meant to be relatively portable and lighter than the Go!

10' won't make a world of difference over 9' in terms of performance and safety. The dual suspension is what does the trick in dampening rough road conditions. Besides, that would defeat this scooter's purpose for portability and ease of storage as a larger frame is needed to accomodate 10' tires.

The NIU KQi 300X has 10.5” tires, larger battery yet it weight and measure about the same. Apollo could have used a carbon fiber stem and handle to compensate for the added weight, I guess. Could also be that they wanted to keep a distance from the City Pro, marketing wise?

Excellent review but why did not compare it to the NIU 300X? The Go seems to hit the sweet spot in many aspects except for the 9” tire size. No matter what Apollo tells you, this is physics, a larger tire like 10” would have been better and yet still compact. The latch seems like it can injure badly the rider in an accident since the magnet is not strong enough to keep it in place. Other than that is almost perfect but a bit pricy. I like the brand Apollo attention to detail.
@ESG-ElectricScooterGuide 4 ай бұрын
Thank you so much! And great question. We haven't fully tested the 300X yet. Mitchell only had a chance to ride it a little bit in Las Vegas, so we can't say for sure how fast and how far the 300X goes. We'll get one soon though and then can add it to the comparison list. The magnet on the latch is very strong, so it definitely won't pop out while riding. In fact the strength of the magnet is what broke the glue on ours. But they'll use more glue on the magnets of the production scooters. -Paul

Ok, I checked in with Apollo, and the answer makes a lot of sense. Dual motors draw a lot of current. In order to support that sort of current draw without too much voltage sag from a 540Wh battery, they needed to arrange the pack with more cells in parallel, which means you can push more amps, but with fewer cells stacked in series you end up with a lower nominal voltage. -Paul

I find this scooter very bumpy and tiring, and the wheels are too small and thin, so hitting small bumps and cracks is JARRING. I'd like to hear your comments after you ride the 30 mile lap to see how the RIDER held up. I don't understand the comments about this very high "ride quality", unless comparing this to other crappy scooters. I'm about 195 pounds dry. One hour on this scooter is more than enough for me, and I'm ready to put it away (with plenty of battery left). The 2024 Lime scooter is way more comfortable and smooth. It's got front shocks like the VMAX VX4.

@chaxologist2961 4 ай бұрын
Good for you. For most commuters, the Go actually has more than enough range for their needs with that "trash" range alone. Being a compact, portable scooter with narrower handlebars, the Go is meant to be easily taken with public transit such as buses and trains for very long commutes. Also, that makes it so easy to store indoors in tight apartments and be carried upstairs with ease! You want a car replacement with longer range while still being fully electric? Go with the Apollo City or Pro without the stress of insurance and maintenance bill that you currently subject yourself to with a gas powered motorcycle. Also, your current vehicle is far more likely to be stolen as you can't easily take yours indoors. Good luck!
