He joined Rider Guide in 2023, and between the two channels, he spends seven days a week riding, testing, and writing about electric scooters.

Segway Ninebot ZT3 Pro - $949
The Teewing Mars XTR has been on my shortlist of scooters to test off-road for a while now. It’s a high-end dual-motor scooter with ridiculous amounts of power, knobby off-road tires, dual stem stability, and a motorcycle-style hydraulic suspension.
I’ve also been wanting to ride the new Segway Ninebot ZT3 Pro off-road. As many of you know, this is a scooter on the more budget end, with a single rear hub motor and a long-travel non-adjustable spring suspension. Segway markets the ZT3 as an off-road electric scooter. Is it legit compared to something like the XTR?
Do You Need $3K-4K to Have Fun Off-Road?
There’s maybe no realistic buying situation in which you’d compare these scooters on equal grounds, but the question is whether you need to spend over $3K for a good off-road electric scooter. And the answer is, no, you don’t need to buy a three, four, or five thousand dollar monster scooter for a fun off-roading experience.
