GOTRAX has dominated the casual, single-motor commuter space by delivering the most affordable electric scooters you can buy online or in stores, from a reputable brand with a solid, 2-year warranty. They’ve concentrated their efforts at the budget, entry-level, and commuter end of the market and have done especially well with scooters for kids and students. The GOTRAX GX3 is a major departure.
Overall, the GX series of electric scooters for adults represents something entirely new for GOTRAX. The first two scooters, the GX1 and GX2, give you dual-motor sport scooter specs at entry-level prices. The third in the GX series, the GOTRAX GX3, is not an entry level scooter, and I’m very excited about this one. I’ve been waiting to review it for a while.
The GX3 is GOTRAX’s flagship performance model, and I’m here to answer two big questions in our review:
First, is the GX3 a worthy upgrade from the GX2? We explore this much more fully in our video review below, where I unbox, set up, and test ride the GX3, and give you a spec-by-spec breakdown of how it compares to its predecessor.
Secondly, we want to know if the GOTRAX GX3 can compete as a world-class performance scooter. With dual 1000W motors, 11-inch tires with hybrid off-road tread, Nutt hydraulic brakes, and four, fully-adjustable hydraulic shocks, it’s got all the key ingredients.
