The Fastest Electric Scooters on the Planet

The Dualtron Ultra was one of the first production electric scooters to reach +50 mph. That was back in 2017, and the race to join the +60 MPH club began shortly after.

Electric scooters provide an unforgettable riding experience due to their dual motors, standing riding stance, and compact power-to-weight ratio. If you’ve ridden a performance electric scooter, 20 mph feels like 40 mph with fresh air against your face and your hands securely set over the throttle and brake calipers. Due to advancements in lithium cell technology, electronic speed controllers, and high-wattage BLDC motors, more premium scooters are pushing past the 60 MPH barrier and into 70 MPH!

With a 55-pound chassis, 72-volt battery pack, and Rion’s prized silky Tronic powertrain, it’s not a matter of how fast this scooter can go; instead, it’s a question of how fast Rion and Voro can produce these custom rockets to meet the demand.

If your electrical company charges you 13 cents per kWh, filling up the X2 would cost you 39 cents (13 cents x 3.024 kwh). If you can fork out $6,500 for this “Cadillac of an electric scooter”, you’ll get a lot of speed and range for not much money.

Looking at its drivetrain, a 60V/45AH battery pack and dual hub motors with a 20KW output power the GTR’s “modest” drivetrain.
