GT3

Just got a ZT3! I love it. Sport mode 25 MPH / 15 miles, or drive with 16 mph / 20+ miles! I commute to work and it has dramatically increased my quality of life. It literally has every requirement you outlined! Segway is tried and true. Don’t overthink! $850 is a steal on amazon currently.

I have both the ZT3 and Max G2. The G2 feels like a toy after riding the ZT3. I really like the ZT3. It handles well, feels much more stable than the G2, and I like the wider body which makes it much more comfortable to ride. At $850 on sale right now it’s a really great deal.

I love the max g3 but man, if it gets stolen. I can only track it. Now the Max g2 has the electric horn, and I'll tell you it's painful. Since it is part of the system, it will use it if someone trys to steal it. Same thing with GT3, Max g3 is weird. No horn. All 3 I mentioned can be track with Apple find mine.

What was the temp when you were riding not the low or the feel like wind chill but the real temperature at that time? Either way sounds like your battery is dead, on Wednesday I went out when it was around 28-30f did 15 miles on my Max G30 and had 25% left. My Max is over 5 years old 5000 miles. The ZT3 has the same battery as the G3 but the frame is more robust for heavier riders someone posted a pic comparing the rear of the frame was at least 2x the thickness on the ZT3. GT3 is not worth it battery is too small for the price, if you want GT3 get the Pro though it cost a bit.

Max G3 should still be fine for your weight, zt3 a bit more chunky too which isnt as good if you take the scooter in places. I would probably go for G3 also unless ZT3 was cheaper.

This is not true, this is a newer model and even the gt2 did not have widespread catastrophic issues. Segway outsells random brands 10 fold, by this logic do not buy Iphones because when I google Iphone problems more show up then Infinix brand phones.

Gt3 is a higher quality scooter but the Raptor has a larger battery for more range. Range anxiety is a real thing so if you care about range get the Raptor.

The Segway has more features and a nicer look, it just depends on what you value more. For me I may lean Raptor for the range even though its more of a "parts bin" scooter.

Get a ZT3 when its on sale and then buy the GT3 battery and throw that baby in there. All problems solved.

Get the ZT3. I have the GT3 and stability is much better than the G2.

Yeah price/performance ratio is not good. I have a GT3 purely because of how it looks.

I don't know I disabled it.

If you have to carry it absolutely not the GT3.

When Segway actually prices their scooters to comparables in the market, then maybe they can be included. Right now, every one of their offerings is priced at a tier higher than it should be when they aren't on sale. Certain 52v models are priced as though they are running on a 60v and sometimes even 72v system. It makes no sense. The battery capacity is anemic compared to the competition. And people still slurp Segways' ass like they are the end all be all of scooters. I truly don't understand it. Just look at what the GT2 sells for at full retail and tell me with a straight face that I should consider it "good" for the price. Now you have the GT3, and it's the same BS. Base model GT3 is a 48v system and 50kph max speed for $2500 CAD ($1825 USD). What a joke. And they underspecced it on purpose to push you to the GT3 pro, which is (Finally) a 72v system, but still only 80kph max speed, for $4500 CAD (3280 USD). Why on earth would I buy that when I can get an InMotion RS, NAMI Burn E3 Max, Kaabo Wolf, Yume Predator for the same price or less? Nevermind the plethora of off brand 72v scooters that blow it out of the water for almost half the price.
