Comparing the Apollo Ghost 2022 and Zero 8X Electric Scooters: Which is Ideal for You?
If you're deciding between the Apollo Ghost 2022 and the Zero 8X electric scooters, there are several key differences you should consider. Firstly, the Apollo Ghost 2022 is a high-performance scooter with dual engines boasting 800W each, providing an impressive acceleration and top speed of 55 km/h, whereas the Zero 8X, with dual 800W motors, offers a slightly slower top speed of 55 km/h.
In terms of range, the Apollo Ghost 2022 outperforms Zero 8X providing up to 62 kilometres on a single charge, compared to the Zero’s range of up to 45-55 km. Both scooters take approximately 4 to 5 hours to charge, so charging time should not be a deciding factor.
When it comes to rider comfort, the Ghost 2022 uses adjustable dual spring suspension to offer a smooth ride, and the wide deck increases stability. However, the Zero 8X has a dual hydraulic and spring suspension system, promising a comfortable ride even over long distances. It does fall short on the deck width, potentially affecting balance and comfort for larger riders.
Weight capacity is another area where the Ghost 2022 pulls ahead, supporting up to 135 kg, while the Zero 8X supports up to 120 kg. Aesthetically, the Apollo Ghost 2022 brags a sleek design and dynamic LED lighting to enhance visibility at night, whereas the Zero 8X leans more towards a classic scooter design, implementing regular scooter lights.
Price is the final important factor for most buyers. The price tag of Ghost 2022 is quite high, making it a considerable investment while the Zero 8X is a slightly cheaper alternative, and despite the lower price tag, it does not compromise much on performance or durability.
