What if there was an e-bike that went more than 35 miles per hour, had more than 30 miles of real-world range, and a thousand watts of nominal power from dual motors? Well, this is the E-Move Roadrunner V3, the third generation of our favorite seated scooter, and it does all those things.
Is it an e-bike? Not really. There are meaningful differences between the EMOVE Roadrunner V3 and an e-bike, and we’ll get more into that later. But the important part is I think it could pass for one when you really need it to. There are now optional pedals, and they’ll actually move you forward, and if you get pulled over, you can always point to them and say, “Hey, it’s an e-bike!”
The EMOVE RoadRunner now has two 500-Watt motors. That’s a big step up from the earlier version, which has 500W in the back and 350W in the front. It’s also got longer-wearing tubeless tires, a high-quality swappable battery, a more comfortable seat, and an update we’ve all been waiting for: dual spring shocks and a swing arm in the back.
The added suspension really smooths out the ride and makes it easier to customize if you want to go crazy with more power and a longer swing arm. In our review, we test the new Roadrunner V3 against the Roadrunner V2 to find out how much faster it is and how much better it rides.

Who Is This Scooter For?
The RoadRunner V3 is very different from a regular electric scooter. It’s very fast, yet so relaxing to ride because of the way you interact with it and the smooth throttle response. It’s also very accessible, because the 28-and-a-half inch high seat means that anyone of any height can ride it.
I feel like there have always been kind of two things holding people back from buying earlier RoadRunners. One was the lack of rear suspension. The other was that potential riders were afraid of getting hassled by police for not having pedals. Now Voro Motors has solved both those problems, giving us the best version yet of their seated electric scooter for adults.
