Got this last month for my first ever scooter. Well worth the money at under $1000 with all its features.

Just got one of these specifically because I have the original GoTrax scooter (I guess the V1) for over 3 years with no issues whatsoever. I imagine hundreds of miles on it. Still holds a charge and the tires are good but the range isn't great, maybe 10 miles max. Battery is a little weaker than it used to be but I weigh over 180 lbs and load it up with grocery bags as well so it didn't have an easy life. If I get as much use out of my new Gmax Ultra I will be more than happy. In my experience GoTrax has been a quality, reliable brand of scooter.

Good video. Can you do a tutorial on how you altered the cables for the brake?

Thanks for the review guys! Ordered one at the start of the week, pretty excited! Never had an electric scooter before.

I just purchased mine - waiting on it to arrive. They NOW claim it is a 500w motor, I assume they have upgraded since this video came out?

That cruise control is very handy and convenient!

It is really a true work horse i have one. A beast for what it is

[alexrojas]

Where do you go if you need to replace a part or have it fixed with anything it needs? And what’s the average life of this scooter if you used it everyday?

[NISABSTUFF]

Just got this scooter recently its amazing! The cruise control is a bonus that i enjoy a lot!

EDIT: the scooter is shit. So many visits to the repair shop. Replaced it with Apollo City 2022 and couldn’t be happier

Have you guys considered doing a review of an electric unicycle like the InMotion V11? Learning curve can be pretty steep, but once it clicks, great little commuting PEV that's very capable. Love mine :D

[DavidSossa]

Great review guys! Thanks for doing it. I got mine 2 days ago and have the same issue with the brake.

I leased an unagi for months and… it’s an incredible scooter but the range was like max 15 but I think that was at like 9 mph max. If you engaged both motors at 20 mph, you’d maybe make it 4 miles.

Just got one and it has a 500w motor. Gen 2 May be? Go Trax doesn’t have it listed for 500watts. Any idea what’s up?

[heroliau]

I thought the motor 500 watt for gmax utra and 350 warranty for just gmax, according the website

Killer review. To the point and looks like a great scooter.

[tumbleweed]

Excellent review. Always interested in electric transit. Pros and cons clearly stated. Short wrap at the end also helped for considering.

[scottyork]

these two guys look like superbad!! XD

[MAVRICK]

Here is a Throttle tip for u guys that For some reason Gotrax never ever mentions 🤷🏻‍♂️ . The throttle only becomes active when the display changes from odometer to speedometer. So you don’t have to push faster or double pump the throttle, you only have to Waite two seconds after you push off for the display to change from odometer to speedometer. ………. You’re welcome : )

[reidy_tv]

Just wanted to follow up with you guys, I had a couple questions about the digital display on the scooter:
How do you change from mp/h to km/h? When I boot the scooter on I can see all the LCD information and bottom right it clearly says km/h.
How do you reset the odometer? The manual provides no information on either of these actions. Any help would be appreciated!

Would anyone chose Gotrax or an evercross h5?
