"I commute to work on it every day, granted it’s only 4ish miles round trip. But that said, I only use 20ish percent of the battery round trip, and it’s a lot of stops and starts. ... Did almost 15 miles with 20% of the juice left when I got home."
"You’ll get ~18 miles on the KQi3 Pro"
"has 31 miles"

"So, I already have a Niu KQI3 Pro, and its a nice little commuter scooter, but having the throttle wide open and maxed out, i get maybe 20 mi range at 20 mph. ... for the most part I'm happy with my kqi3, but it lacks in longevity... ... i didn't have intentions on riding longer than a few miles at a time.. but then the weather got nice and i had time off... and here we are lolol"

"Yeah, I live on 3rd floor (stairs only), that’s why weight is a concern. ... KQI 3 Pro probably is the best scooter for its price as much as I have researched, but it is heavier."
i would just get the kqi3 pro if you're getting the 2, it's worth the extra money for battery and speed. also the fat wheels are awesome for turning and traction.
r/ElectricScooters • Value scooter for lite autocross use. ->I’ve owned 3 scooter upgrading every time. NIU KQI 3 pro , Emove cruiser S , Roadrunner Rs5. All bought off Facebook at minimum 50% off and all less than 300 miles on them. Barely broken in IMO.
r/ElectricScooters • Scooter Advice ->I’ve bought 2 used scooters. I keep eye on marketplace and found my first scooter niu pro 3 barely used then upgraded to an emove cruiser S with about 500 miles on it in excellent condition. I got both of them for about 1/3 of new retail price. Sold the NIU after about a year for 100 less than I paid for it. I’m looking to upgrade again if I see what I want. I’m really liking to Roadrunner Rs5 max currently.
r/ElectricScooters • Would you buy a used electric scooter for work commute? ->Ninebot Gmax1 or niu kqi3pro is your answer. If you can get the G2 or the kqi3max even better. That's all you really ever going to need
r/ElectricScooters • Best electric scooter for daily work commute? ->Heh, for whatever reason, fixing up scooters from fbmp has become a hobby of mine. I'm at 6 scooters right now. 2 basic gotrax ~$30/ea (bad battery connections), some no name scooter $30 (bad cell bank), niu kqi3 pro $free (crashed, bent front fork, bad tires), gotrax flex ultra $150(perfect condition, 40miles on it), zondoo zO01+ $150 (internal break in ignition wire, noisy bearing + broken off split rim screw in hub motor, unbalanced wheels, lighting harness shorted and melted, bad stem bearings)
r/ElectricScooters • I got my first electric scooter a month ago…. I may have developed a problem…… ->I recently purchased the NIU KQI3 Pro at Best Buy for $469 (USD). It's awesome. 20mph, good range, solidly built. No suspension unfortunately but with the larger tires it's still a nice ride without breaking the bank.
r/ElectricScooters • Budget electric scooter ->I just got a Niu Kqi3 pro last week, so, i dunno....
r/ElectricScooters • Do people still buy name brands? ->I recently purchased the NIU Kqi3 pro as I was in the market for an electric scooter and need something nice. I love the scooter so far but I live in a rather hilly area and it’s very hard to avoid hills where I live. The Kqi3 pro can’t necessarily handle hills and has lots of trouble, at least in my experience, going up practically any hills at all. I’m wondering if there is anything I can do to up the performance of the scooter or anything. If not, should I return the scooter and get something else? I’m not sure what other scooter I would get as my budget is only about $500-$600. I’ve seen the Evercross H9 has a pretty high wattage motor and that could be an option. I’ve also seen the Navee S40 on sale for about $400 at target and was considering that an option with it having dual suspension for that price-point. Any recommendations?
r/ElectricScooters • NIU Kqi3 Pro hill climbing ->I’ve never ridden one, but I know they are reliable. It’s an out dated model though. I would go with the KQi3 Pro over the G30P in my opinion. You’ll get ~18 miles on the KQi3 Pro, but if you don’t need it immediately, I’d try and wait it out to see if you can get the Max on a discount. Literally every other month they have some new sale. I will also say that I’ve seen the pro go for $430, so that’s also an extremely enticing deal. Either way NIU makes some great scooters that perform better than you might expect them too.
r/ElectricScooters • Needed Advice for Best Electric Scooter for 230lb Rider – $500 Budget, 15+ Mile Range ->NIU KQi3 Pro. You should be able to get one around $450. Goes 20mph, and has a range about 31 miles. The real world range I got at 180lbs was about 18 miles. You’ll probably get around 20-22 miles since you’re 110lbs.
r/ElectricScooters • Best Scooter for less than $500 ->Check out NIU. They usually have bundle deals that give you more off than the sales are already giving you. You could get them a pair of KQi3 Pro’s which are 20mph scooters with a decently battery so they can ride for as long as they want. I see that the other scooters you have are a little faster. You could also look into the KQi3 Max bundle, it’s a 24mph scooter and that’s probably faster than any 15 year old needs to go.
r/ElectricScooters • Scooter options ->I started with a Niu KQI 3 Pro 3 years ago. Rode it for 1700 miles, before I moved on. Now I'm hitting 60mph but I started at 20mph 2 scooters ago. Was a great little workhorse.
r/ElectricScooters • Best starter scooters for daily commutes? ->IPX4 can handle light rain on short distances, it really depends on how long you plan to ride it in the rain. Ideally you want anything over IP5. I recommend looking into NIU scooters, my old scooter was a NIU KQi3 Pro which had an IPX5 rating and I rode it in the rain many times on the way back from work. Worked fine - depending on your weight it might not handle hills very well but if you live in a flat area it's a great budget scooter.
