Segway-Ninebot e-scooters compared

Segway-Ninebot groups its kickscooters into series that differ in size, battery and features. The German versions with road approval have a “D” in their name, such as the F2 Pro D or Max G3 D.

Make sure you buy the German variant with ABE. Import versions without the “D” may have higher speeds and cannot be approved in Germany. Within a series, the models differ mainly in battery size, suspension and load capacity – a “Pro” usually offers more range and features. Also compare whether indicators are fitted: some newer models already have them, and from 2027 they become mandatory for newly manufactured scooters.

One advantage of big brands is the supply of spare parts: tyres, brakes and chargers for popular models such as the Max series are available from many retailers.

Many Segway-Ninebot models can be paired with a smartphone app. This lets you set riding modes, install firmware updates and, on some models, activate an electronic lock. The app is no substitute for a proper lock, though – for longer stops, also use a D-lock or chain lock.

The brand suits people who value an established name, good spare parts supply and a mature app. If you are mainly looking for the cheapest possible entry point, other brands sometimes offer similar specs at lower prices – with the risk of poorer service availability.

Used Segway-Ninebot scooters are in demand. When buying used, check the ABE documents, the condition of the battery and folding joint, and make sure no tuning software has been installed. This page shows new products only.
