CNET's best electric scooter overall: dual motors, suspension, turn signals, self-healing tires and an app that can lock the wheels. At 46 lb it's heavy for a commuter, it doesn't fold small enough for some train seats, and Tom's Guide found the latch needs a jiggle.
Real-world range: Claimed 20-30 miles. Tom's Guide rode about 8 mostly flat miles at around 20 mph and used 28% of the battery.
Weight: 46 lb (Tom's Guide, CNET)
Recalls (CPSC): No CPSC recall found for the Apollo Go. Apollo has had two other scooter recalls: Phantom V1/V2/60V (2023-08-31, CPSC 23-270) and City Model Year 2024 (2025-07-24, CPSC 25-402).
Top complaints
- Heavy for a commuter
Tom's Guide's reviewer prefers commuter scooters under 30 lb; the Go weighs 46 lb and doesn't fold compactly enough for many train seats.

Tom's Guide says the latch that holds the handlebars to the deck sometimes needs a jiggle to release.
Source: Tom's Guide (Apollo Go review) - Slow acceleration out of the box
Tom's Guide found it slow to accelerate at first, though acceleration and braking can be adjusted in the app. Turning could be a little tighter.

- Tom's Guide (Apollo Go review): Review: a reliable all-rounder and great for beginners, but heavier than the reviewer likes for commuting and the fold can be finicky.
