MAGIFOCUS B01 Electric Scooter vs GOTRAX G2 Plus Electric Scooter

The MAGIFOCUS B01 is the serious commuter scooter: 350W motor, 19 mph top speed, 22-mile range, 10-inch tires, disc plus electronic brakes and turn signals. The GOTRAX G2 Plus is a light entry-level scooter for teens and short campus hops: 200W, 12 mph, about 6.8 miles of range and 6-inch solid tires. Owners rate the G2 Plus highly across thousands of reviews and call it easy to use, but they also report the battery drains fast and it is a bit heavy. The B01 has far fewer ratings, so its 4.5 rests on a small sample. Buy the B01 for real commuting distance and speed; buy the G2 Plus for a first scooter on a tight budget.

• Choose the MAGIFOCUS B01 if you commute more than a few miles, want to keep up with traffic at up to 19 mph, or need turn signals and stronger brakes.
• Choose the GOTRAX G2 Plus if you are a teen or new rider doing short campus or neighborhood trips and want a light, simple, well-reviewed first scooter.
