Bought an inmotion RS midnight a few months ago, and it had a handful of issues out of box. Was getting annoyed with the results of going back and forth with the retailer I bought it from, so just decided to go shopping for something new all together. Gspace Mars GTR caught my eye and I'm excited to get it together and see what it's made of. Out of the box, build quality is s tier, I love the telelever suspension to get away from c-type design, the ability to add 12 inch wheels, and the bonus to add a power inverter along with a built in fire suppression system sold me.
Update: its a fuckin dope scooter.
Update 2: Its by far the best 72v scooter Ive ever ridden. Beats the RS in just about every possible category. Also getting an absurd 20 miles more range out of the GTR.
Thanks. Yea I don't get on any scooter without gear. I run a moto helmet, a AA rated Knox urbane pro top, and rev it parabolica AA rated pants. Both have ce2 armor in knees and elbows. I've crashed a motorcycle before and never wanna have to pull gravel out of my body ever again lol..
I just got on it for a test ride and 50 plus feels so much safer than my inmotion RS. This thing is superrrr stable even without a damper. Handle bars are lower than I would like, but I think I can fix that with some bars with a bit more rise.
Nah I still have the RS - its running fine now so just gonna throw it in storage for now as a back up. Might wind up selling it if I like the GTR more.
its good now. It came from factory with a bent rotor and deformed tire, which was causing a pretty nasty wobble. Then it started throwing an overheating code on the rear motor a couple times. I just had to turn acceleration percentage down when I was riding hard. Not a huge deal in the grand scheme of things, its just voro sucks to deal with, so I just wanted to move away from the RS all together just in case I have another issue down the road. I really do like the RS, its a shame Voro has them exclusively now.
The first thing that jumps out at me right away is how much safer it feels at high speeds. Once you get up to 45-50+ it feels so much more stable than everything else ive ridden, and there is ZERO shake or wobble even without a damper. It's engineered so well you cant really tell how fast you're going until you look down at the speedometer. You can feel the difference between the c-type suspension and full fork immediately. Its much easier to keep straight, and going over imperfections and potholes on the road is way easier to navigate even with the shock upgrade on my RS.
The only thing I would say the RS has over the GTR is the acceleration feels a touch smoother, and the deck feels a bit longer, which I like. The cockpit accessories feel a little more premium on the inmotion, and obviously the app with diagnosis tool, and then the ability to fine tune acceleration and brake force is great to have.
Beyond that, literally everything else on the GTR is an upgrade. Ive only been through 2 charge cycles, but i believe im getting close to 20 miles more range on the gspace even while riding the shit out of it. Gonna do a range test tomorrow to get a better idea of exactly how much more.
Ive ridden quite a few 72v scooters, and the GTR is hands down the best yet, and this is one of the few impulse buys I do not regret at all lol. This thing deserves way more attention then it gets and its a shame there arent many reviewers with videos up on it because its damn near perfect.
Supposedly g-space is dropping an 84v model early next year and I am for sure going to pick it up.
Gspace also has great customer service from my interactions so far. Ordered this on a Friday morning, and had it on my porch the following Thursday. They also sent me a 4 piston Nutt kit for free which is something im pretty sure voro wouldn't dream of lol.
I like the inmotion RS Jet and Midnight when I test drove them. I feel like the Apollo had a better durability. I should have probably spent more time on them.
Me and the misses went with Teverun Mini Pros(my 4th choice). We wanted a great scooter at lower speeds, hill climber, and light.
The Teverun Fighter Supreme was an amazing tank. It was too heavy for putting in the truck without a ramp. The Daytona would have been an awesome off-road scooter. Another tank with all kinds of bells and whistles.
I have a Segway, mini-motors, and a Inokim.
So test drive, test drive, test drive.
Rule of thumb is, the higher the performance, the worse the water resistance will be. I wait a day after it rains before I’ll take my 7260R out. They claim high water resistance like IP65 but in reality, the faster a scooter goes, the more cooling it needs for its motor, batteries and controllers and cooling means airflow. Any place where air can get in, water can also ingress. The only hyperscooter I would trust as actually being “waterproof” is the INMOTION RS 2.0, anything outside of that I haven’t seen any real world testing to convince me otherwise.

Apollo makes trash scooters.
The inmotion RS is decent, but they put the kick stand in the wrong spot, if you actually lean hard in a turn you can catch the kick stand on pavment.
I would get a teverun fighter supreme ultra instead of the RS.
Well put it this way, besides the probably big weight and size difference, you can always power down the RS, can’t power up the phantom. I use my big ass Burn E as my everyday scooter. I tried using the Vsett I bought for my gf, but yeah the power isn’t there, plus she has the acceleration turned down a bit. Like 3/5. So I don’t feel comfortable getting a good lead in front of traffic. Of course when it’s gets up to speed it’s not issue.
No customizable modes so I’d have to go in the p setting every time to change it. Sure, it’s easier to whip around… but that’s about it. I will lug my scooter everywhere because I can switch from granny mode to balls to the wall in two button presses, with my regular riding mode dead smack in the middle.
52v vs 72v is no joke. I’d go with the RS and call it aday.
With all of that said, unless you’re dealing with stairs, the widest part on scooters is the handlebars, you can always put it on the lowest mode if you need to walk with it.
Also: being able to adjust the ride height on the RS makes a huge difference. With the stem *and* the deck.
Also also: had no idea the 52v phantom is just as heavy as my 72v burn e (102lbs), just about the same top speed as well. So weight is out the window
Don’t get me wrong, I’m pretty sure the Phantom has its own customization going on where my issue isn’t an issue on that scooter. And the phantom is way stronger than the Vsett. I was just speaking from my experience. It’s really about what controller and motor is packing. But all in all a 72v scooter like the RS is a very different experience power wise than the Phantom.
I personally rather have the power for when I really wanna get a thrill. Even though my scoot can go up to 45, I’m mostly near 30, but the torque I have at hand is frickin nuts, and that’s just the weaker base model hauling 220lbs. It’s frightening when my girl rides it, she’s like almost 140.
The RS has even more torque.
If I didn’t hear so many issues coming from it, I’d recommend the RS Jet. Punch in a smaller form factor. It’s so tiny looking
