Apollo - City Pro 2023 (Dual Motor)

So we’re talking 20mi round trip? Can you ride chill or are you keeping up with traffic? 10 miles on a scooter can be rough sometimes. I do 28 round trip if I’m visiting family. I would suggest the Nami Klima since you have a nice budget. The max version for more battery. If you want bigger tires, the Nami Burn E 2 is nice. But it’s huge. Emove cruiser 2.0 is pretty good as well. Great water resistance. They haven’t been really tested out by the community, but the new Segway Max G3 and GT3 are feature packed. (And now feature 11inch tires instead of 10) I also like the Apollo City Pro, but I don’t like Apollo as a company. If you give us a little more data to work with (max speed, suspension, water resistance, weight etc), we can dial down the many options for you. But from what you list from being used to a car, you want quality and comfort.

I know Apollo City has been getting a lot of bad rap lately due to the stem issues, but I talked to them about it and they've indicated that all their stems have been thickened. And as far as they've seen so far, none of the new stems have broken. I used to have a City and it was a great scooter to ride on for myself. Quite decent speed and range., good suspension, all around solid. Slightly higher than your budget at $1199 [https://apolloscooters.co/products/apollo-city-24](https://apolloscooters.co/products/apollo-city-24)

Look at ninebot g30s. I have beaten the absolute shiiit out of mine and it Is still going very strong. It's actually significantly more durable than my $1.8k Apollo city pro. Just no where near as fun

Ya, I had one for a couple months but end up selling it and using that money to get an Apollo City Pro. But now I’m looking for something that can keep up with traffic. If I didn’t want a higher top speed I probably would have kept my Apollo Go

I’ve had so far the NIU KQI3 Pro, Emove Cruiser, Apollo Go and Apollo City Pro. I’m looking for something to keep up with traffic. It does seem like Nami is the most recommended brand by anyone.

I’ve had the Apollo Go and Apollo City Pro and absolutely loved those scooters, I’ve rode some mantis’ but they always seemed to be lower build quality to me

How about the Apollo City on sale for $1099 right now, gets up to 32 mph with a range of about 22 miles. It is IP66 rated so you can ride it in the rain no problem. I'm not sure if this review is the previous iteration of the scooter or the current one: [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AbBATuFPQB8](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AbBATuFPQB8) Another option is the Solar P1 3.0. Goes up to 41.4 mph as tested by ESG with 27.7 mile range: [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yqLGj5vnDUc](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yqLGj5vnDUc) It's currently 20% off, $1040, although that doesn't include the tron lights. But I don't think the tron lights are worth it especially for this scooter. The seat is probably worth it though, at $60. It's only IP64 rated, so it's not sufficient for rain riding. I'd just ride the Inmotion when it rains, and ride the Solar on sunny days. Otherwise keep saving up more and get like the $2k-3k range scooters, Apollo Phantom/Stellar, GSPACE GTR/ECO, Segway GT3 Pro, or Solar Hyperion RST. Having typed that, I think the latter options may be too big for you, not sure what you mean when you say you need it to fold. Apollo Phantom is 102 lbs, and Phantom Stellar is 109 lbs. Hyperion is the most manageable of the bunch at 110 lbs.

Ya, i love my city dual '23. 2500km and going strong.

How much do you weigh? That will be a big factor as well. However, I would go with something that is dual motor, which would be the Apollos. I live in Seoul and the city is full of hills. I got a decent dual motor scooter here locally and it handles most hills like a champ. I ride it in single motor mode majority of the time and only engage dual motor when I need to.
