GOTRAX G2 Plus Electric Scooter vs NIU KQi 100P Electric Scooter

The NIU KQi 100P is the better scooter for most adults: 9.5-inch tires, spring suspension, a 600W peak motor, 17.4 mph top speed and roughly 18 miles of range make it a real commuter. The GOTRAX G2 Plus is a lighter, simpler machine at 20.9 lbs with solid 6-inch tires, a 12 mph cap and about 6.8 miles of range, so it suits short hops and riders who must carry it. Owners rate the NIU as well built and fun for casual riders, but note its speed is capped and cannot be unlocked in the app; the GOTRAX is the more basic, less comfortable ride.

• Choose the GOTRAX G2 Plus if you need the lightest, most compact scooter for short trips and carrying up stairs, and you are fine with 12 mph and solid tires.
• Choose the NIU KQi 100P if you want a faster, longer-range commuter with suspension, larger pneumatic-style tires and a higher load rating.
