The Segway E2 Plus II sits in the commuter class. Segway (Ninebot) publishes almost all of the core specifications for it, and the gaps matter as much as the numbers — we walk through both below rather than papering over what the manufacturer leaves out.
Segway (Ninebot) does not publish a range figure for the E2 Plus II on its official specification page, so we do not show one. We will not reverse-engineer a distance from marketing copy or copy a number from a review blog — an unverifiable range is worse than an honest blank. If range is central to your decision, treat this omission as a reason to look at a model whose maker is willing to state the figure.
The claimed top speed is 15.5 mph, near the bottom of the class. Peak output is 500 W (300 W nominal). A single motor keeps weight and complexity down, which suits commuting more than the spec-sheet bragging rights of a second motor.
Segway (Ninebot) rates it for a 12% incline. That is the figure to watch if your route has a real hill: an underpowered scooter does not just slow on a climb, it overheats and sags in range. This is a modest rating — steep hills will tax it, especially with a heavier rider.
There is no suspension, so tyre choice does all the cushioning — expect to feel expansion joints and potholes through the deck. The 8.1-inch solid tyres never puncture, which is genuinely convenient, but they transmit more of every bump straight into your hands and feet.
The braking system is not detailed on the official page. On any scooter this is a specification worth confirming directly before you buy, because it is the one that matters most when something goes wrong.
The E2 Plus II carries an IPX4 water-resistance rating, which we score at 40 of 100 on the build metric. That covers light rain and splashes but not a genuine downpour; caught in heavy rain, get it dry rather than trusting the seal. A published IP rating is itself a good sign: manufacturers who test for water ingress put the number on the page, and its presence here means the figure was measured rather than hoped for.
The frame is rated to carry 198 lb. Stay well under that figure in practice — riding at the limit stresses the folding mechanism and further reduces range.
At 36.2 lb the E2 Plus II is among the lowest in its class (the typical commuter scooter here is 49 lb). In everyday terms it is manageable but not effortless: fine for a few steps, tiring over a long carry. Weight is the specification buyers most often ignore at purchase and most often regret afterwards, so be honest about how many stairs stand between you and where the scooter lives.
Segway (Ninebot) does not state UL2272 certification for this model on its specification page. UL2272 is the standard covering the scooter's electrical and battery system against fire, and its absence — whether the scooter is uncertified or simply undocumented — is worth resolving before you buy, particularly if you will charge or store it inside a shared building.
A full charge takes about 7.5 hours from the standard charger, which realistically means charging overnight rather than topping up between a morning and evening commute. If charge speed matters to you, ask whether a faster charger is offered, but weigh it against battery life: fast charging generates heat, and heat is what ages lithium cells.
Whatever the 220 Wh pack, how long it lasts is mostly in your hands. Lithium batteries prefer to live between roughly 20% and 80% of charge; draining to empty and leaving it there, or storing it fully charged in a hot space, are the two habits that shorten a scooter's usable life the fastest. With the battery built in, treating it gently is the difference between a scooter that holds its range for years and one that fades in a season.
Segway (Ninebot) does not list a standard retail price for this model on its own page, so we show cost only where a tracked retailer offers it.
We rank the Segway E2 Plus II against every other commuter scooter in the database on the same five measures — range, power, build, portability and value — each scored within the category so it competes with true peers rather than machines from a different price bracket. Its overall score is 39/100.
The comparison table on each ranking page lets you sort these side by side on whichever specification actually decides your purchase.
The Segway E2 Plus II earns its place for a documented, verifiable specification sheet, and its main compromise is a slow charge. It is a considered pick for a specific buyer rather than a blanket recommendation. As always, every figure above is Segway (Ninebot)'s published claim or a value we compute from it, linked back to the manufacturer's own page so you can verify any number yourself.

Scores are percentile-ranked within the Commuter category, weighted 25/25/20/15/15 over whichever components are published. A component we cannot compute is dropped and the weights renormalise — never scored as zero. Read the full method.
Scores compare models within their own category. A budget scooter's 90 and a performance scooter's 90 are not directly comparable.
This model's published specification fits the statutory definition of a street-legal scooter in 12 of the 17 states we have verified against the statute and exceeds the definition in 1.
Falling outside a definition does not make a scooter illegal to own. It means the permissions written for that device class — bike-lane access, no registration, no insurance — do not apply to it as sold.

NAVEE GT5 Max pairs a claimed range of 55.9 miles, a 596 Wh battery. Best suited to anyone riding rough pavement.
NAVEE ST5 Max pairs a claimed range of 55.9 miles, a 596 Wh battery. Best suited to heavier riders, anyone riding rough pavement.
NAVEE XT5 Max pairs a claimed top speed of 31.1 mph, a claimed range of 68.4 miles. Best suited to heavier riders, experienced riders who want real speed.
Segway (Ninebot) does not publish a range figure for this model on its official specification page, so we do not show one. We do not estimate a range from an unpublished claim.
The manufacturer's claimed top speed is 15.5 mph. That figure is measured under favourable conditions; rider weight and gradient both reduce it in practice.
It carries an IPX4 water-resistance rating. That covers light rain and splashes but not heavy standing water.
It weighs 36.2 lb and is rated to carry up to 198 lb. Anything above roughly 50 lb is difficult to carry up stairs or lift onto public transport regularly.
