30.7 mi estimated · 37 mi claimed · 29.5 mi tested
The claim is 1.2× the estimate. How this is worked out.
Seven hundred and sixty-eight watt-hours in a 45-pound scooter is about 17 watt-hours per pound, level with the best of anything under 50 pounds here, and it is the whole argument for the VX2 Pro GT. Independent range testing has put it between 29.5 and 39.6 miles depending on rider and route, against a 37-mile claim — so unlike most of the category, the claim sits inside the measured spread rather than above it. IPX6, a 28% rated slope and a 287-pound rider limit round out a practical package. The omission is suspension: there is none, and at 24 mph on 10-inch tires the tire pressure is the only ride adjustment there is; running below the factory 42 psi softens it at a small cost in range. The 8.5-hour charge is the other cost of carrying that much battery. VMAX sells it in two packs; the figures here are for the 768 Wh GT, which costs more than the 499 Wh LT.

35-55 lb — you can lift it into a boot or over a kerb, not carry it far. Estimated range is our own calculation from the battery capacity; the claim is the manufacturer’s.
Features
- 768 Wh pack — one of the two largest here under 50 lb
- 1,300 W peak motor, 28% rated slope
- 10-inch tubeless tires, 2.7 inches wide
- IPX6 water resistance

In its favour
- 768 Wh in a 45 lb scooter — about 17 watt-hours per pound, level with the best here under 50 lb
- Tested range brackets the claim rather than falling short of it
- IPX6 and a 287 lb rider limit
- UL certification, which managed buildings increasingly require for indoor storage
Against it
- No suspension at all, at 24 mph
- 8.5-hour charge
- Front drum plus regen is the only braking
- The GT pack that gives it this range is the dearer of the two VMAX sells
