Segway has opened up pre-orders for its new MAX G3 Plus electric scooter, an upgrade of the company’s MAX G3.
The MAX G3 Plus builds on the MAX G3 platform with a 20% larger 717-Wh battery that delivers up to 56 miles of range and 2,200 watts of power, plus dedicated rear turn signals, new reflector placement, redesigned brake levers, and larger 140-millimeter rotors. A new Intelligent Combined Braking System (ICBS) also activates regen braking in conjunction with the disc brakes to improve power and efficiency while reducing mechanical wear.
The MAX G3 Plus also features Intelligent Riding Assist, a smart feature that uses data from a gyroscopic sensor to provide an additional boost uphill, more control going downhill, and to reduce throttle sensitivity on rough terrain and uneven surfaces.
“The MAX G3 Plus represents the next evolution of urban commuting. Listening to customer feedback, we made running improvements to make the best commuter in our lineup even better,” said VP of Sales Tom Hebert. “By pairing increased battery capacity and longer range with the ride quality and performance the MAX series is already known for, we’ve created an e-scooter that gives commuters the confidence and freedom to go farther every day.”
Like the original MAX G3, the MAX G3 Plus features dual hydraulic suspension, SegRide Stability Enhancement, 11-inch self-sealing tires, dual disc brakes, Dynamic Traction Control (SDTC), and Anti-Lock Braking (S-ABS). Smart features include a full-color TFT display with navigation and ride stats, AirLock unlocking, Apple Find My compatibility, a 360-degree lighting system with integrated turn signals, and FlashCharge technology for faster charging.
Customers can pre-order today on Segway’s online store in the U.S. for a limited-time discount price of $1,149.99 ($350 off $1,499.99 MSRP).
