Hiley Tiger King RS vs. Tiger Supra: Which Electric Scooter Reigns Supreme in 2025?

Summary

The Hiley Tiger King RS (72V) and Tiger Supra (60V) share the same premium chassis, deck, controls, NFC unlock, IPX7 water resistance, Samsung 50GB cells, bright LCD, hydraulic brakes, and app-controlled RGB lighting—so the deciding factors come down to performance and damping. In repeated GPS-timed runs, the RS pulled ahead everywhere: quicker 0–30 mph, stronger past 50 mph, and notably less voltage sag as the battery dropped. Its suspension also offers more effective damping (adjuster on the bottom), making the chassis feel planted at speed and under braking, while the Supra’s setup (top adjuster) stays a bit springier. Lights are essentially a wash (RS ~750 lux vs. Supra ~650), and the Supra’s motors are a touch quieter at ~72–73 dB vs. ~78–79 dB for the RS.

Range testing at a fast, real-world pace (rider ~210 lb with gear, high-30s to low-40s mph on mixed grades) delivered a surprise: despite the RS’s smaller 35Ah pack, it eked out about 32 miles to empty versus the Supra’s 31 miles (40Ah), and the RS held usable speed far deeper into the pack—still around the high-20s mph near 0%. Pricing seals the recommendation. For roughly $500 more (about 20%), the RS is the better performer with stronger damping and higher, more repeatable top-end. If maximum value is your priority, the Tiger Supra delivers about 95% of the RS’s performance for less. If you want the most capable, most composed Hiley Tiger—with acceleration, stability, and speed that hold up even at low state of charge—choose the Tiger King RS.
