No citable customer rating — see how we compare.
28.7 mi estimated · 56 mi claimed
The claim is 2× the estimate. How this is worked out.
Segway's answer to its own Max G3, with the pack grown from 597 Wh to 717 Wh and the motor from a 1,500 W peak to 2,200 W. The headline range goes from 50 to 56 miles, but Segway quotes it at 10 mph, and the 28 mph boost mode, which has to be enabled in the app, drops the claim to 22 miles. Factory top speed is 20 mph. The Plus also gets 11-inch self-sealing tubeless tires, hydraulic suspension at both ends with an adjustable rear, an IPX6 rating and a 286 lb rider limit, 21 lb above the 265 lb of the F3 and Max G2. A built-in charger takes the pack from empty in about four hours. At 56 lb it is the heavy end of the category, and the store price of $1,199.99 is $200 above the current Max G3 sale price. Choose it over the G3 for the extra speed headroom, tire and range margin.

55 lb and up — this goes where it can be wheeled, and lives at ground level. Estimated range is our own calculation from the battery capacity; the claim is the manufacturer’s.
Features
- 717 Wh pack, 56-mile claim at 10 mph
- 28 mph with High Speed enabled in the app (20 mph default)
- Front and rear hydraulic suspension, adjustable rear
- 11-inch self-sealing tubeless tires
- 140 mm disc brakes front and rear, plus electronic braking
- Traction control and stability enhancement
- Apple Find My, navigation and call notifications
- IPX6 and 286 lb rider limit
In its favour
- 717 Wh is 120 Wh more than the Max G3, which stays on sale below it
- Self-sealing tubeless tires, so a nail does not end the ride
- Hydraulic suspension at both wheels with an adjustable rear
- 286 lb rider limit and a claimed 30% climbing slope
- IPX6 rating handles hard rain
- Traction control and Find My tracking built in
Against it
- 56 lb is heavy to carry; the F3 is about 39 lb
- The 56-mile figure is quoted at 10 mph, so expect far less at 20 mph and 22 miles in boost mode
- 28 mph requires switching on High Speed in the app; the factory limit is 20 mph
- $1,199.99 store price is $200 above the Max G3 and the gain is mostly range, not speed
- Both discs are mechanical; reviewers wanted hydraulic
