What range will you actually get?

Full calculator

Manufacturer range figures are lab best-cases. Estimate the real-world range of any scooter for your weight, speed, terrain and weather — the honest number, built on the maker's claim.

Estimated real-world range
1721 mi
GOTRAX claims 37 mi. This estimate is derived from that claim and the factors below — it is not a test result.
Rider weight (180 lb versus the ~165 lb test rider)-3%
Average speed (cruising near 15 mph)0%
Terrain (rolling ground)-10%
Temperature (70°F)0%
Tyre pressure (not consistently maintained)-7%

The factor moving your number most is terrain (-10%). Change it above to see the effect.

A two-year-old scooter will fall short of this: lithium batteries lose roughly 20–30% of capacity after about 500 charge cycles.

Independent

Rankings are computed from specifications. Retailers cannot buy a position, and affiliate commissions never change the order.

Data-driven

Every specification comes from the manufacturer's own published sheet. Anything we cannot verify there is shown as unavailable, never guessed.

Honest range

We show the claimed range and our estimated real-world band of 55–70% side by side, on every card and every page.
