Unfortunately, we do not yet have any information on this. As soon as the 25kmh model becomes available to us from our suppliers, we will be able to check whether it can be included. :)
No, you can't do that. However, I find the display with the LED bar completely sufficient. You can only know exactly how high the battery level is to around 5 %.
I have the Max G2D. It becomes critical on a 10% incline. The speed should collapse to 5 km/h and possibly even come to a standstill. It is very important that the tyres are well inflated (check every few weeks!). I would go to the upper limit with the pressure. The rolling resistance should not be underestimated. A well charged battery is also important. Especially in winter. The brakes on the Segway are not that special.
Yes, it is included in the scope of delivery.
The good thing about the scooter is that the power supply unit is built into the scooter.
All you have to do is plug in the enclosed cable (similar to a television).
In fact, spare parts for this brand are difficult to obtain in Switzerland and in most cases this has to be done via a service centre.
If you want pictures of secondhand products, you would have to request them through our customer service, we have no way of sending them here.
We source our products from different suppliers to ensure availability as far as possible. As soon as a supplier does not have the item in stock, we switch to a supplier with higher availability. Each supplier offers different prices, so there may be price differences. There can be various reasons for this, such as higher purchase prices for smaller quantities or additional import costs. We therefore work with daily prices.
I charge it at one bar and it takes about 3.5 to 4 hours to charge it to about 85%. I have set it so that it does not charge more than 85% to save the battery.
As luck would have it, I have both models.
The Segway is much quieter and more "ergonomic" in comparison
but in terms of performance it feels weaker than the vmax especially in terms of acceleration
I haven't really tested the range as I do a lot of short journeys
According to digitec, it is authorised in Switzerland and is certainly the best equipped. I will clarify with the STVA whether I need the European licence plate.
I want to buy an e-scooter for a distance of 1 km with a load of about 120kg. But I'm wavering between the Segway-Nineboot and Vmax models.
What appeals to me with the Segway-Ninebot models is the suspension (disadvantage of low wattage) and with the Vmax models the higher wattage (disadvantage of no suspension). Does anyone have much experience with these two manufacturers and how do they fare in prolonged use? Do these models cope well with inclines, snow and rain? How long would the ride take approximately if you ride 1 kilometre?
Many thanks in advance to everyone for their help.
Hello VoxMachina, I've had the Segway Max G2D since summer 2024 and I'm absolutely delighted with it. I watched a lot of comparison tests on YouTube beforehand. The Segway's suspension is an absolute highlight. The suspension masters bumps, driveways and light gravel paths with ease. The brakes, indicators, brake lights, etc. are also great. I weigh around 90kg with clothes and a light rucksack. This means that the Segway has no problem at all on most inclines. I usually whizz up the hill at the full 22 km/h. At 120 kg, it can cope with a little less incline. And otherwise the speed might drop to 16 - 18 km/h. According to the tests on YouTube, however, the other manufacturers are not much better. A test ride would actually be ideal. And another tip: Like all batteries, the Segway battery doesn't like the cold. I once had to leave it outside for three hours in temperatures of around zero degrees. Then it only went up the hill at 14 km/h. I don't ride in the snow and only in an emergency in the rain. So I can't comment on that. However, it is not recommended. Regarding the question about how long it takes to drive 1 kilometre: as the bike uses the legal tolerance and drives at 22 km/h in sport mode, it should be possible to cover the kilometre in 3-4 minutes. However, this does not include braking for stop roads etc. But accelerating is a lot of fun afterwards anyway and you're back up to 22 km/h in just a few seconds. I hope this information helps you decide.
Does anyone have a direct performance comparison with the Vmax VX2 GT (the first model, so not "pro" etc.)?
I want a scooter with suspension because of a knee problem, but it should have at least the same performance as the VMAX, especially on hills.
The range should also be at least the same.
The technical data or manufacturer's specifications for e-scooters are basically fairy tales and the performance is usually viewed rather critically in tests of the Segway (YT and so on). But I'm particularly interested in the comparison with my VMAX model.
