Ninebot by Segway KickScooter MAX G2 E

The Ninebot KickScooter MAX G2 E is the second generation of Segway-Ninebot’s most popular and most reliable electric scooter, taking the entire urban e-scooter category to a higher level. This model is designed for riders who demand maximum stability, long range, high performance, exceptional durability, and comprehensive safety while riding. Thanks to a top-tier combination of a robust build, a large 551 Wh battery (15.3 Ah, 36 V), rear-wheel drive with 450 W power and a peak output of up to 900–1000 W, together with the advanced TCS traction control system, the MAX G2 E delivers a ride experience that clearly exceeds the capabilities of typical city scooters. With a range of up to 70 km under optimal conditions, this model sits at the top of its class and enables all-day commuting without the need to recharge. Its maximum speed of 25 km/h complies with European regulations, while even at the full load of up to 120 kg it maintains strong motor performance and excellent stability. The latest design, high-quality 10-inch self-healing (self-sealing) tubeless tires, modern LED lights with turn signals, and premium dual suspension make the MAX G2 E suitable not only for the city center, but also for longer routes and rougher surfaces. The result is an exceptionally versatile scooter that provides maximum comfort, safety, and practicality for everyday transport.

Construction, design and equipment

The MAX G2 E design combines a robust structure, practicality, and modern aesthetics. When unfolded, the scooter measures 1210 × 570 × 1264 mm, ensuring a stable riding stance even for taller riders. When folded to a more compact size of 1210 × 570 × 605 mm, it can be conveniently stored in an apartment or garage, or transported in a car trunk. The weight of about 24.3 kg is higher compared to typical city models, but it reflects the solid construction that delivers high durability, stability, and long service life. The MAX G2 E features large 10-inch self-healing (self-sealing) tubeless tires, which reduce the risk of punctures and increase comfort over rough surfaces. One of the biggest advantages of this model is the combination of a front hydraulic damper and rear dual spring suspension, making the MAX G2 E one of the most comfortable scooters in its class. High-performance LED lights are complemented by integrated turn signals, improving both visibility and communication with other road users. There is also a modern color display showing speed, range estimate, battery level, and the active mode. Bluetooth connectivity and control via the mobile app come as standard, where you’ll find ride mode settings, the scooter lock, and diagnostics. A three-step folding mechanism enables quick handling, and the overall equipment makes the MAX G2 E one of the best-equipped models in its category.

Safety, performance and ride quality

Safety is one of the main reasons why the MAX G2 E is considered the brand’s flagship in the city-scooter category. The braking system combines a front drum brake and a rear electronic regenerative brake, resulting in stable, strong, and predictable braking even at speeds around 25 km/h. Both front and rear LED lights are powerful and visible from a long distance, and the model also includes integrated turn signals at the front and rear, increasing safety in dense traffic. The TCS (Traction Control System) prevents wheel slip during acceleration, hill climbing, or on wet, sandy, or loose surfaces. The suspension—front hydraulic and rear dual spring—helps the scooter track steadily, reduces vibrations transmitted to the handlebars, and improves rider control. With a load capacity of 120 kg and a robust build, the ride remains stable even for heavier users. Water resistance rated IPX5 and a battery with IPX7 protection significantly reduce the risk of damage from rain, puddles, or moisture. The Bluetooth app enables you to activate an electronic lock, set speed limits, or diagnose technical condition, helping prevent issues before they occur.

Use and practicality

The Ninebot MAX G2 E is designed for users who need a versatile, reliable, long-term means of transport both in the city and beyond. With a range of up to 70 km, the scooter can cover all daily rides without needing to recharge, becoming a full-fledged alternative to public transport or a car. Its high load capacity of 120 kg allows comfortable use even for heavier riders, while the rear drive and stable frame ensure sufficient power even at maximum load. The steel-aluminum construction minimizes service needs, the tires are self-healing and can handle small punctures, and the suspension significantly reduces component wear. The model supports multiple ride modes (Eco, Drive, Sport, and Walk), improving efficiency and comfort in different situations. The scooter has IPX5 water resistance, and the battery even IPX7, meaning you can use it in the rain—puddles and worse weather are not an issue. With a charging time of about 5–6 hours, it’s ideal for overnight charging, and the durable construction is suitable for long-term, intensive use. Maintenance is minimal: the hydraulic suspension is long-lasting, the drum brake only needs occasional cleaning, the electronic brake has no friction, and the tires are designed to handle thousands of kilometers without replacement.

Our evaluation

Compared to the E2, E2 Plus, or E2 Pro models, the MAX G2 E is significantly more powerful, more stable, and intended for longer distances. It offers up to 70 km of range, which is almost three times that of typical city models. Its 450 W motor (900 W peak) clearly exceeds the output of the E-series (250–350 W). Compared to the F series, it provides notably better comfort thanks to the hydraulic suspension, large 10-inch tires, and a higher 120 kg load capacity. The MAX G2 E also features advanced functions such as TCS, turn signals, an IPX7-rated battery, and self-healing tires, which lower ranges do not offer. Compared to its predecessor, the MAX G30EII, the G2 E delivers more power, better suspension, longer range, and significantly improved safety features. Within the entire brand lineup, the MAX G2 E is among the most comprehensive models designed for demanding users.

About the brand

Segway-Ninebot is a private company headquartered in Beijing, China. In 2015, Ninebot strategically merged with Segway, based in Bedford, United States. The two companies thereby joined forces in research and development, design, manufacturing, and distribution of personal short-distance transporters. The companies now have continental headquarters in the USA, the Netherlands, and Beijing, with manufacturing centers in the USA and China. Segway and Ninebot together focus on seamless integration of robotic personal transportation with smartphone connectivity, and on developing already functional concepts such as voice control, facial and person recognition – highly interactive and smart products that make life easier. The inspiration for the name Segway comes from the word “Sequa,” defined as a smooth transition from one state to another. Segway transforms a person into a motorized pedestrian with the ability to go farther, faster, and carry more.
