Comparing the Apollo City Pro and Swagtron Swagger 5 Electric Scooters
As the demand for electric scooters increases for both recreation and commuter travel, companies like Apollo and Swagtron have produced models to satisfy various user needs. Two prominent models currently on the market are the Apollo City Pro and the Swagtron Swagger 5.
Starting with the Apollo City Pro, the scooter boasts a robust 600W motor that can reach a top speed of 40km/h, outperforming Swagtron Swagger 5's 250W motor, which maxes at 29km/h. The Apollo City Pro also outshines in terms of range. With its larger battery, it has an impressive maximum distance of 70km on a single charge compared to the Swagger 5, which is limited to 20km. This range difference can make a substantial impact for users needing longer commute distances.
While performance and range-wise, the Apollo City Pro edges out, the Swagtron Swagger 5 has its own virtues. It is lightweight, weighing 12.5 kg compared to the heavier Apollo City Pro at 17.8 kg. This makes the Swagger 5 easier to carry and maneuver in crowded urban areas. The Swagger 5 also excels in affordability, commonly priced 50% less than the Apollo City Pro.
Both scooters offer a smooth ride with their design features. The Apollo City Pro with its dual spring suspension system reduces road vibrations, while the Swagger 5's air-filled front tire provides decent shock absorption.
In summary, while the higher performance Apollo City Pro excels in power and range, the Swagtron Swagger 5 may be a better choice for those prioritizing affordability and portability.”
