Segway, a global leader in the micromobility and LEV space, recently opened pre-orders on the new MAX G3 Plus electric scooter, a refined upgrade of its flagship MAX G3. Customers can pre-order today at Segway Store official website in the U.S. for a limited-time discount price of USD 1,149.99 (USD 350 off USD 1,499.99 MSRP).
Built for riders ready to take every adventure to the MAX level, the MAX G3 Plus builds on the best-selling 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, optimized reflector placement and redesigned brake levers and larger 140-millimeter rotors for improved visibility, safety, control and comfort. 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 upgrades are combined with the smart technology that made the original MAX G3 a benchmark in premium urban mobility.
“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.”
The MAX G3 Plus is also the first Segway e-scooter to use a new range testing standard to provide more realistic real-world estimates, offering increased transparency and better expectations to consumers as Segway continues to set the bar as the leader in micromobility. While maximum range was previously based on when the battery completely died and included distance travelled at vastly reduced speed due to battery depletion, maximum range for each mode (Eco, Drive, Sport, Sport +) is now tested at the maximum speed for that respective mode and recorded at the distance when the speed drops to 60% of that mode’s maximum. This provides users with a much more realistic estimate of usable range. So, while the published maximum range is six more miles than the original MAX G3, if they were to be tested to the same standard, the MAX G3 Plus would have approximately 12 more miles of maximum range.
Like the original MAX G3, the MAX G3 Plus delivers a smooth, stable ride with 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.
The MAX G3 Plus will be in-stock and shipping on August 25 in the U.S. at Segway Store official website as well as at trusted retailers including Best Buy and Amazon.
