Segway - eKickScooter E3 (051901U)

Hey, looking for advice on which on to buy. My Xiaomi Scooter Elite was stolen I am hesitant if I should rebuy it or try something d different. **Prices:** \- SEGWAY E3 E 360€ \- Xiaomi Scooter Elite 300€ So far what I got from reading **SEGWAY E3 E** * New brand to me, I only had Xiaomis before * Traction Control (TCS): some say it doesn't do much, some say it is useful * Dual suspension * Fancy breaking system ? * 45 Km range but arguably **a lot less** in practice (like 20ish) * 400W/800W * 18% uphill incline (only, despite having a 400w motor?) **Xiaomi Scooter Elite** * I am kinda used to it. * NO Traction Control (TCS) * Front suspension only * I consider the brakes to be passable, but not perfect, preferred the disc brakes Xiaomi scooter 4 * 45 Km range, and in practice the real range is close * 350W/700W * 20% uphill incline (up to 20% > 18% despite having a weaker motor...how??) Any opinions? any real noticeable advantages in the segway E3 E making it really better? Is the TCS and back suspension worth the extra money? Is the battery life and climbing ability really worse?

I found the **SEGWAY E3 E** on offer for 331€ on wellbots. I ordered it. Worst case, if I don't like it, I have 14 days to return it.

I got the **SEGWAY E3 E,** so far I am happy with it, it feels stable in wind, but there one bumpy road I take that I still didn't test yet. The brakes, acceleration, etc all feel a little bit different than the Xiaomi Elite, but still ok. Less space, the Elite is a bit wider, but still ok The design is soo cool. It has a dedicated space for accessories and can be linked to "find my" like airtags (didn't try that yet, tho) THE MAJOR ANNOYANCE: No battery life on screen!! and the BIGGEST ISSUE: NO real good points to lock the scooter!! the spaces in the front wheel are very small! can't fit any of the locks I have through, will have to look for a look that fits The stem is clearly not an option because thieves can remove the handle bars by unscrewing it! and in this model the diagonal bar at the bottom is part of the folding mechanism (in the elite it is not a moving part, very stable!) which makes it not a very solid choice for locking. Will have to be extra careful with this one and enable that find my. If you're worried about security, and want to easily use physical locks don't go for this scooter!

Id recommend the Segway ninebot e3 or e3 pro. The ninebot has front and rear suspension. The water resistance rating is good. The redesign Segway ninebot has done with many of their scooters now with much better steering geometry. The scooter will be very stable riding at full speed. I know someone has a modified Segway ninebot g3 and its similar steering/suspension geometry and flys over 80mph without a steering damper.

I own the non-pro version, the Segway E3. I don't know what are the main differences, but I assume that one of the difference must be a bigger battery pack and longer range.  The E3 is a really great scooter for its price. I get a range a bit higher than half the advertised range because of my weight. It has a nice big screen, good headlights and brake lights, really nice RBG lights under the floor. I've used it during rain, and I have not faced any issues thus far. Although, I would say, if you're gonna ride it on the sidewalk, it will be a bumpy ride because the suspension isn't THAT great (not sure if the suspension's better on the pro model). But overall, the scooter is a really great scooter to look into.

I bought a KQI2 Pro this holiday season, not because it had great specs but because it was $360 on sale. I did not have intense needs for it, nor did I have high expectations. It was immediately a huge jump from the Ninebot ES line (two successive scooters) that I'd been struggling with for about 6 years. It is not amazing, but I didn't need it to be fast or to tackle crazy hills/distance. It is just fine for grocery runs or trips to work. It's very nice for trips from Manhattan to the outer boroughs, as it gets about 18-20 miles range from 100% to 0% power and there aren't many places I need to go where I'd have to take it any farther. It's heavy, like most scooters in this category. The KQi Air is probably what I'd really get if cost were no issue. It has the range I need, the ride quality I need, and it's 40% lighter. I have talked to people with other scooters, and Ninebot/NIU are the only game in town. A friend of mine got an Apollo that can't even get out of the apartment without a $200 repair job out-of-the-box.

I have an f2 and a E kick from ninebot. I do believe you're paying a little bit for the ninebot name, but from my experience it's worth it. I picked up an F2 that had only been rode 4 times by the previous owner for $200 (a steal) on marketplace. The build quality is definitely there, I absolutely love the f2. It's not even in the same league as my new vmax, yet I still use it for trips I can't bring the max inside or if it's rough riding. I'm 170 and ride the scooters like I stole them. Our Gotrax is also solid reliability wise, as my 8 yrs old nephew hasn't destroyed it yet, despite trying his hardest lol

I have a ninebot and they are very solid for the price. Ignore anyone saying they are overpriced. No on the Apollo Go. I have a VMAX V2 Hub and I absolutely love it. Extended range, it's a monster

What do I do now because I’ve already gotten the e3, it said it had a (45km) range but it literally died on me after 10km

I already got the e3 and it died after 10-15km

My newly bought e3 died after 15km of usage on a full charge it was mind boggling 😭😭 I got stuck and had to call an uber back home

Sport mode is 32, normal mode 25 and eco mode is 15. (I have one)

I have the E3 but I’m struggling to fold it, do you have / or have you found a video of getting the E3 to fold?

I just got one of these 2 weeks ago. It’s the bees knees!! Do it now!!

I just bought one of these on sale at Best Buy (CA) $499.00, compared to anything else for this price, you won't beat it. Full suspension and it's fast, I mean it accelerates fast and holds 32km/h uphill (slight inclines) with me at 180lbs. I have an Ecoroad EC8 and just sold my Hiboy S2 Pro, and have to say there is absolutely NO COMPARISON as far as quality, speed, durability, design, app control, and on and on and on. Get one before they are sold out!

What a deal, I guess I just missed it. This is by far the best scooter for the price.
