00:00This is the Segway Max G3, the latest version of the company's most popular electric scooter.
00:05I'm super excited to take this for a spin.
00:11Like the G2, this one gets up to about 28 miles an hour, which is plenty fast.
00:15It also has three different speed settings, so if you're not comfortable with going at the top speed,
00:21you can limit it to say like 10 or 15 miles an hour.
00:24This has a 2,000-watt motor in the rear, so I don't expect any trouble zipping around whatever the incline.
00:32You'll get up to about 50 miles of range on this scooter, which is about the same as the previous version.
00:37So this is super stable. I mean, I'm going at like one, two miles an hour here.
00:42And with a lot of other scooters, you're going to fall off because you're just going to lose your balance.
00:47But the Segway here, I'm really impressed.
00:50And the ride on this is great, as you can tell, it's just very stable.
00:54There's a few design differences from the previous version, like the downtube is raked back a little bit further.
01:00The handlebars are angled slightly more towards you, so it's a more comfortable ride.
01:04This one also has dual hydraulic shock absorbers.
01:07So I was going over bumps and things like that, and it was very smooth and very stable.
01:13The G3 Max has some of the same safety features that were on the previous version.
01:18For starters, this one also has turn signals here, so there's one on each side.
01:23It also has Apple Find My in case you lose it.
01:26And it has airlock so that the scooter will lock and unlock automatically when you approach it or leave it.
01:33This is definitely a scooter for commuters, especially those who need to travel, you know, a decent amount of distance to get to and from work.
01:41It's got, you know, great shock absorption, really smooth handling.
01:46And like I said, a great range, too.
01:49Segway hasn't yet released the pricing for the Max G3 yet, only that it's going to be released in the spring or summer of 2025.
01:57However, we do know the pricing of the higher end version of this, the GT3, which is going to be around $1699.
02:04So I would imagine that this one is going to be around $1,000, which is very affordable for the performance you're going to get.
02:12So you think this is going to be the next scooter for your daily commute to and from work?
