When Was Prime Big Deal Days 2026, and What Sale Is Next?
Prime Big Deal Days 2026 ran on Tuesday, October 6, and Wednesday, October 7. It started at 12:01 a.m. Pacific time on October 6 and ended at 11:59 p.m. Pacific on October 7. That was 2:59 a.m. Eastern on Thursday, October 8. During the event, Amazon dropped new limited-time deals three times a day, at midnight, 8 a.m. and 1 p.m. Pacific. Some deals outlasted it. All seven scooter deals we found were still marked down when we checked again on October 8.
The next big sales we expect are Black Friday and Cyber Monday in late November. We do not know yet what Amazon will mark down or by how much, so we are not going to guess. The ten picks below are the listings we would watch.
Prime Big Deal Days is a sale for Prime members. Even so, every scooter deal we found during the event was open to all shoppers when we checked. A few brands also run sales on their own sites, so we track both below.
How We Picked These Deals
Three scooters on this list went through our full test protocol. The Segway MAX G3 Plus scored 9.8 and the NAVEE XT5 Pro scored 9.7, and we GPS-verified the Segway GT3 Pro at 48 mph. Their review links are on their cards.
The other seven come from Ride Finder specs and years of riding Segway, NAVEE, NIU, GoTrax and Heybike models. We left out brands we cannot vouch for, even when their Amazon listings look like bargains. Every pick has an Amazon listing, and every card says whether we tested it and whether it is in stock.

Best Overall:Segway MAX G3 Plus
Check latest price →Available on Amazon
The MAX G3 Plus is the most complete commuter scooter we have tested, and it earned a 9.8. It held 25 to 27 mph up our quarter-mile test hill and finished it in 37.52 seconds. It covered 21.2 miles in our hard, real-world range test with a 200 lb rider, and it stopped from about 16 mph in 13 to 14 feet.
In practice, the hydraulic suspension at both ends is what you notice first. Add a 717 Wh battery, a 2,200W peak motor, front and rear turn signals, traction control and Apple Find My, and it weighs a reasonable 55.1 lb on our scale. Amazon had none in stock on October 7. It was back when we checked on October 8.
Why we like it
- ✓ RG Score 9.8
- ✓ Held 25 to 27 mph uphill
- ✓ Hydraulic suspension
- ✓ Turn signals front and rear
- ✓ Apple Find My
Keep in mind
- − Too heavy to carry upstairs
- − Not for rough trails
Key specs
- RG Score:9.8/10
- Tested range:21.2 mi
- Tested weight:55.1 lb
- Battery:717 Wh
- Peak power:2,200W

Fastest on Amazon:Segway GT3 Pro
Check latest price →Available on Amazon
Of the scooters we have tested, the GT3 Pro is the fastest you can buy on Amazon. We saw 48 mph on GPS against Segway’s 50 mph limit, and it went from 0 to 30 mph in about four seconds without ever feeling nervous. Dual motors make 7,000W at peak.
It runs a 72V 30Ah battery rated for 86 miles, rolls on 11 inch self-sealing tires and uses full hydraulic suspension. At 117 lb, it belongs in a garage. It also comes from a brand with a global dealer and parts network.
Why we like it
- ✓ 48 mph on our GPS
- ✓ 7,000W peak
- ✓ 86 mi rated range
- ✓ Self-sealing tires
- ✓ Dealer and parts network
Keep in mind
- − 117 lb

Key specs
- Tested top speed:48 mph
- Rated top speed:50 mph
- Battery:2,160 Wh
- Weight:117 lb
- Rated range:86 mi
- Peak power:7,000W
Best Value Segway:Segway Ninebot Max G3
Check latest price →Available on Amazon
The standard Max G3 is the scooter the G3 Plus is built on, and it is still one of Segway’s best commuters. You get a 597 Wh battery, a 2,000W peak motor, a 28 mph top speed, hydraulic suspension, 11 inch tires and traction control.
We tested the Plus, not this one, so this is a researched pick. Compared with the Plus, it has a smaller battery and no rear turn signals. It was not discounted when we checked on October 7. In practice, it was the one you could buy that day, because the Plus was out of stock on Amazon.
Why we like it
- ✓ Hydraulic suspension
- ✓ Traction control
- ✓ 28 mph
- ✓ 11 in tires
- ✓ Cheaper than the Plus
Keep in mind
- − Smaller battery than the Plus
- − Not tested by us
Key specs
- Top speed:28 mph
- Rated range:50 mi
- Battery:597 Wh
- Weight:54.2 lb
- Peak power:2,000W

Best Performance Value:Segway GT3
Check latest price →Available on Amazon
The GT3 is the step between Segway’s commuters and the GT3 Pro. It tops out at 31 mph, carries an 899 Wh battery rated for 45 miles and uses hydraulic suspension for a planted ride.
At 87 lb it is still heavy, but it is 30 lb lighter than the Pro. Pick it if you want real performance for longer commutes and weekend rides without going to a 48 mph scooter. We have not tested the GT3 ourselves.
Why we like it
- ✓ 31 mph
- ✓ 899 Wh battery
- ✓ Hydraulic suspension
- ✓ 30 lb lighter than the Pro
Keep in mind
- − 87 lb
- − Not tested by us
Key specs
- Top speed:31 mph
- Rated range:45 mi
- Battery:899 Wh
- Weight:87 lb
Best for Rough Roads:Segway ZT3 Pro
Check latest price →Available on Amazon
The ZT3 Pro is Segway’s off-road-style scooter at a commuter price. On paper, its bigger tires make it steadier and more comfortable than most scooters under $1,000 on broken pavement and gravel paths.
It tops out at 24.9 mph, carries a 597 Wh battery rated for 43.5 miles and weighs 65.5 lb. Keep it off real trails. On bad city roads, though, it rides better than a slim commuter. We have not tested it ourselves.
Why we like it
- ✓ Off-road-style stance
- ✓ Big tires
- ✓ 43.5 mi rated range
- ✓ Stable ride
Keep in mind
- − 65.5 lb
- − Not tested by us
Key specs
- Top speed:24.9 mph
- Rated range:43.5 mi
- Battery:597 Wh
- Weight:65.5 lb
Best Budget Range:NIU KQi3 Max
Check latest price →Check stock on Amazon
The KQi3 Max is the budget scooter with the biggest battery on this list at 608 Wh. NIU rates it for 40.4 miles and a 23.6 mph top speed, which is a lot of range for a scooter that usually sells for well under $500.
At 46.3 lb it is manageable to carry for short stretches. It is a good pick for a first scooter or a daily commute of a few miles each way. We have not tested it ourselves. Amazon showed no offer for it on October 7 or October 8, so look at the listing before you plan around it.
Why we like it
- ✓ 608 Wh battery
- ✓ 40.4 mi rated range
- ✓ 23.6 mph
- ✓ 46.3 lb
Keep in mind
- − No Amazon offer Oct 8
- − Range is a claim
- − Not tested by us
Key specs
- Top speed:23.6 mph
- Rated range:40.4 mi
- Battery:608 Wh
- Weight:46.3 lb
Best Ultra Budget:GoTrax GXL V2
Check latest price →Available on Amazon
The GXL V2 is the classic ultra-budget scooter. It tops out at 15.5 mph, is rated for 12.5 miles and weighs 27 lb, so it is light enough to carry into a classroom or an office.
It is slow and plain. For short trips around campus or the neighborhood, it is the easiest scooter on this page to justify. We have not tested this version ourselves.
Why we like it
- ✓ 27 lb
- ✓ Cheapest pick here
- ✓ Easy to carry
Keep in mind
- − 15.5 mph
- − 12.5 mi rated range
Key specs
- Top speed:15.5 mph
- Rated range:12.5 mi
- Battery:187 Wh
- Weight:27 lb
Best Amazon eBike:Heybike Mars 3.0
Check latest price →Available on Amazon
The Mars 3.0 is the only ebike from our Ride Finder list that sells on Amazon. It folds, it rolls on 4 inch fat tires, and its 624 Wh battery is rated for 65 miles at up to 28 mph. Heybike rates it for 440 lb, which is high for a folding bike.
It weighs 70 lb, so folding it makes it easier to store, not easier to carry. Heybike also sells it direct, so compare the Amazon price with Heybike’s own store before you buy. We have not tested the Mars 3.0 ourselves.
Why we like it
- ✓ Folds
- ✓ 4 in fat tires
- ✓ 440 lb rating
- ✓ 65 mi rated range
Keep in mind
- − 70 lb
- − Not tested by us
Key specs
- Top speed:28 mph
- Rated range:65 mi
- Battery:624 Wh
- Weight:70 lb
- Tires:4 in
- Payload:440 lb
More Amazon Scooters We Checked
These did not make the main list, but they sell on Amazon and come from brands we trust. We checked each one on October 7. Three of them were marked down, and those three deals were still live on October 8.
Segway: the Ninebot Max G2 (43 mi claimed) and the Ninebot E2 Pro were both marked down. Amazon tied both deals to the event, and both were still running on October 8.
NIU: we found no deals. The KQi 300P, KQi Air (26.4 lb) and KQi3 Pro showed no discount. The KQi 300X and KQi 100P were unavailable, and the only KQi2 Pro offer was a used one, so we took those three off the list.
NAVEE: the GT3 Pro was marked down. The ST3 and the budget V25 showed no discount.
Direct-Brand eBike and Scooter Sales During Prime Week
Most of the best ebike brands do not sell on Amazon at all, and you do not need a Prime membership to shop them. We checked each store on October 7, and this is what we found.
Lectric: the store called the week a Better-Than-Prime Deal. The XP4 folding bike started at $999. The XPress 2 commuter, which we rode to 38.3 miles on one charge, was $1,399.
Ride1Up: the Portola 02, a folding bike we tested at 28 mph and 39.2 miles, carried a Limited Time Discount tag and started at $895.
Aventon: we found no sale on the Pace 5 REC step-through cruiser with regenerative braking. It was $1,799 when we checked.
Velotric: its Fall Prime Day sale offered up to $550 off select bikes. The Discover 3 commuter was not one of them, and it was still $1,999.
Heybike: we found no price cut on the Ranger 3.0 Pro full suspension folder at $1,499 or the Saturn moped-style bike at $1,199. The Saturn scored 9.0 in our testing.
NAVEE: NAVEE’s own store ran a Fall Sale that week. Compare before you buy, because the XT5 Pro cost $100 more there than on Amazon when we checked.
How to Spot a Real Prime Day Scooter or eBike Deal
Big sales bring real discounts and plenty of fake ones. Run these checks before you click buy on Black Friday or at any other sale.
- Check the model name: The Segway Max G3 and MAX G3 Plus are different scooters with different batteries. A discount on the older model can still be a good buy if you know which one you are getting.
- Look at who sells it: A listing sold and shipped by Amazon or the brand is the safe choice. Third-party sellers can have different return policies and warranties.
- Treat claimed range as a ceiling: We got 21.2 miles from a scooter rated for 56. Expect about half the claim if you ride fast, carry weight or climb hills.
- Compare the brand’s own store: Heybike, NAVEE and Segway sell direct, and brand sales often run the same week. A lower Amazon price is not always the lowest price.
- Check the battery certification: Stick to scooters and ebikes with UL 2272 or UL 2849 certification. Check the listing itself for the certification, not just the brand’s website.
Prime Big Deal Days eBike and Scooter FAQs
When was Prime Big Deal Days 2026?
Prime Big Deal Days 2026 ran on October 6 and 7. It started at 12:01 a.m. Pacific time on Tuesday, October 6, and ended at 11:59 p.m. Pacific on Wednesday, October 7. We checked the listings on this page on October 7 and again on October 8.
Do electric scooters go on sale during Prime Big Deal Days?
Yes. During the 2026 event we found seven Amazon scooter deals from Segway, NAVEE and GoTrax. All seven were still live on October 8, the day after the event ended. Sale prices change fast, so check the listing before you buy.
What is the best electric scooter to buy on Amazon?
The Segway MAX G3 Plus. It scored 9.8 in our testing, held 25 to 27 mph up our test hill and covered 21.2 miles in our hard range test. It was out of stock on Amazon on October 7 and back in stock on October 8. If you want more speed, the NAVEE XT5 Pro scored 9.7 and hit 31 mph.
Can you buy a good ebike on Amazon?
A few. Most of the ebike brands we recommend sell direct, not on Amazon. The Heybike Mars 3.0 is the one folding fat tire bike from our Ride Finder list with an Amazon listing. For Lectric, Ride1Up, Aventon and Velotric, check the brand’s own store.
Is Prime Big Deal Days better than Black Friday for scooters?
Discounts can be similar. Buying in October gives you more riding weather before winter in most of the country. If you missed the October event, Black Friday and Cyber Monday are the next sales we would watch.
Do I need Prime to get the deals?
You need a Prime membership for Prime-exclusive prices. Some listings drop for everyone, and direct-brand sales do not require Prime at all.
Final Thoughts
The Segway MAX G3 Plus is still the scooter we would buy first. Amazon had no stock on October 7, and the scooter was back on October 8. During the event, the NAVEE ST3 Pro had the deepest cut of our ten picks. The Ninebot Max G2 on our extra list went further. On a tight budget, the GoTrax GXL V2 is the cheapest pick here, and it was marked down during the event too.
Prime Big Deal Days 2026 ended at 11:59 p.m. Pacific on October 7. The next sales we expect are Black Friday and Cyber Monday. These ten picks are the listings we would watch then. Amazon can change a price at any time, so compare every pick against the brand’s own store and our July Prime Day deals hub.
