The 5 Top 30 MPH Electric Performance Scooters

First out is the new and improved 2021 Apollo Explore. This is a very good advanced commuter scooter if you are looking for that 31 mph (51 kph) number as well as good portability and long range.

"Great upgrade from Segway NineBot G30 Had Segway NineBot G30 for a few months. 

If you are looking for an even longer range and a bit more top speed, an excellent contender is the Mantis 8. Named so after its 8 inch tubeless tires. It comes in single motor or dual motor spec versions.

Here we focus on the dual motor spec version. Plenty of power from the double 48V 800Watt motors. A top speed of 33 mph (53 kph) and a range of 40 miles in eco mode. If you know about the Mantis and Mantis Pro, you are familiar with the power and strength of the brand.

The mantis 8 is all that but not as big, so it feels a bit more compact compared to its bigger siblings. You get a very good e scooter of high quality as we have come to expect from the Mantis. Dual swing arm suspension provides a smooth ride and even though it is not specifically an off road e scooter, some trails might be fine.

Excellent dual disc brakes work brilliantly in unison with the wider tires. Front and rear LED lights, lateral LED strips, and turn signals are all part of the safety package. The Minimotors display allows for advanced torque configurations, ABS, and cruise control.It weighs 60 lbs (27 kg) and the stem locks onto the deck for easier carrying although the handlebars do not fold.

If you are looking for a proper fast electric scooter and an inner city commuter scooter that you can still pick up and carry, the Mantis 8 can be the one for you.

"Possibly the perfect scooterI
have the 2021 Mantis Pro 8 and absolutely love it! It does it all, exceptional torque and power yet nimble enough to go anywhere. Takes hill’s and trails with ease and a great city scooter,closest thing to a magic carpet out there. We have 4 scooters but I’m seriously considering getting another one for my wife. Only thing I would want from the factory is a keyed start and a horn, but now you can get a fingerprint start but that just do appeal to me and a after market horn is easy to find. Hopefully they will add those features in time. Honestly the best all around scooter you can find."

Looking for more of everything? How about dual 1200W motors with a peak power output of 3200 Watts? And quadruple adjustable spring suspension system for maximum shock absorption. 

A personal favorite. I will never forget the first time I tried the 24.5 AH spec version and took off like a bat out of hell. I glanced at the speedometer what felt like two seconds later and saw 40 mph (64 kph) on the display. 

"Kaboo Mantis ProI love it.
It is so fun an easy to ride. I live in Bremerton, WA and it handles the hills no problem. Highly recommend this scooter! This is my first scooter. I almost got a cheaper unit, but I knew I wouldn't be happy with it. I wanted something that had some torque for the area I live in. I'm a 200lbs adult and this puppy just glides.Only one small con. The rear brake line was low on fluid when I unboxed it. I contacted Fluidfreeride.com and they quickly reviewed the problem and sent me out a kit to top off the brake. Very responsive and awesome customer support. They take care of their clients. :)"

If you are not looking for the fastest cheapest e scooter you can find on Amazon, but rather something fast enough, extremely well built and that will most likely never break down or require a lot of maintenance, there is but one choice.

"The best of the five Ive owned in 15 years
Ive had so many different forms of transportation in my life. Many have been more recreational than actually functional. This Inokim OX can be a great recreational scooter. A great weekend fun ride. HOWEVER, this is not just a recreational "toy". It is solid safe substantial transportation to commute to work, run errands, visit friends AND be a weekend warrior. I've had two electric and two gas scooters. This is by far the best. Smooth. Rides like a cloud. Stops on a dime. Very safe and visible lighting system. Wear a helmet no matter how safe you feel. Customer support is personal and prompt. Trust me, you wont be disappointed. If something is not right, they will make it right. The accessories are perfect. This takes you almost to the top of the electric scooter world. I may have to try other models. I'm not a little guy and this unit FLYS FAST. I cant tell you enough, this is not a toy. It is transportation. Well done FluidFreeRide. You did good. When you own an Inokim OX, you make friends. EVERYBODY wants to see it and ride it, and I let them. Scooters build bridges and make friends"
