The main difference is the voltage. The pro has 48v and the gt3 says "standard"...since they are both 48v I'd assume the pro has a different controller. The pro has much better acceleration too which is more important than top speed in many cases. With the price being close I'd go with the pro...maybe even check out the st3 from Navee.

Both of these are absolute garbage. Get him a niu, ninebot, or navee. The lowest models are around the same price roughly.
Extremely cheap and "higher quality" do not got together here...but for 2.5 miles if you spend $500 you will be all set. Avoid the parts bin temu/amazon crap. It will not last. NIU or ninebot or navee. Either one will be fine for a rather short ride. My job is 6 miles away. At one point I had a go trax and I could get there in like 18 min....i do not recommend go trax though. You best bet is one the "N" brands.
Successfully climbed a steep 17% incline with the GT3 Pro at 175 lbs.
The 48-volt battery alone is enough for me to pick Navee. Tested both the ST3 Pro and GT3 Pro just recently. Both are exceptionally nice to ride. The ST3 is the more compable, but the regen feels smoother on the GT3 line if that matters to you. Both are super plush and feel heavy-duty. ST will be better on steeper hills while GT is enough for moderate hills. The GT3 Pro JUST managed (slowed down to 8KMH) a 17% incline in my test as a 175 lbs (80 kg) rider. The ST3 was notably stronger on the same hill, as to be expected. Right now the ST3 Pro is the best flagship value in my opinion.
Me and my scooting friends all have gt3s, but I have the pro and the others are just the standard. We don't really notice too much difference in power, but they all do fine with overpasses and normal hills. We have never found a hill that the gt3 can't handle, though it may slow a little.

Navee makes good stuff, but this is bottom of the line. I recommend getting something like a gt3 with some suspension.
It will make a difference if you need to climb any hills. The pro also has a larger battery get that one
I’ve only owned segway and navee brands, both have been good scooters although i do prefer Navee nowadays. Navee GT3 is about as entry level as you can get. I don’t recommend the scooter I own (s65) because it’s not easy to get anymore and it’s few years old, but he would love it. A Full suspension scooter will make his riding safer as well. Anything by Segway, Niu, Navee is going to be pretty reliable for entry level starter scooters (not insanely fast) but depending on your budget you may need something less
Navee gt3 for $399 from best buy beats that segway
I’ve been happy with my 20mph navee for 2yrs, it has just enough oomph to make my rides a little more exciting. My next scooter will do atleast 32mph though, if & when my navee breaks down again
Navee GT3. Can snag one on the low from the Navee eBay store. Suspension for a budget scooter is great
Mine was <$300 after a store card deal but you can't buy it anymore. 6 mos. 1100 miles. I'd suggest stretching to $399 for a Navee GT3 or watching Amazon for a good price \~$300 for a Kukirin G2 regular (see price history).
I have the GT3 and the ST3 both i’ve been pretty happy with. Segway Ninebot E3 and Niu KQI 200p are probably better than the GT3 but i believe Navee gives you more value for your money. Not sure what you could compare the ST3 to specs wise its worse than the Segway Ninebot G3 Max, but i would go to bad for it over something like the NIU KQI 300x. The ST3 is pretty smooth to ride. The software is pretty limited. For example i wish i can cap how much it charges like Segway and Niu scooters can do. I had an issue with the GT3 where it wouldn’t turn on after messing with the electronic lock and i was able to get it to work again with help from Navee although they took a bit to get back to me (at least it felt like it)
Agreed. I had a Navee 1000w and 800w. 1000 is the minimum. I'm 220 lbs and it could barely make it up some hills.
