Comparing Apollo Light & Zero 8X: A Duel of Electric Scooters

In the booming world of electric scooters, two giants of the industry, the Apollo Light and Zero 8X prove to be impressive contenders. On the surface, it’s easy to see that both the Apollo Light and Zero 8X electric scooters are stylish, solid performers. However, closer examination reveals distinct differences that may sway potential buyers towards one or the other. The Apollo Light prides itself on its compact and light construction. As the name suggests, it's one of the lightest in its class, weighing only 16.8kg. It's also easy to fold, making transport and storage quite convenient. Running on a 500W motor, it delivers a solid performance, reaching speeds of up to 35km/h. Despite its size, it has an impressive range of 35km. The Apollo Light also boasts of quick charging time. However, it's worth noting that the scooter's simpler suspension system doesn't offer as much shock absorption as more advanced models. On the other hand, the Zero 8X takes pride in its robustness, power, and off-roading capabilities. Although this scooter weighs considerably more at 33kg, the added weight contrives to offer higher durability and stability, especially during high-speed rides. With dual motors boasting a total power of 800W, the Zero 8X can potentially reach speeds up to 55km/h. The 8X also has better control at its higher speeds, thanks to its advanced suspension system and quality build. It also supports a longer range of up to 75km which is twice what the Apollo Light offers. In summary, the Apollo Light is a perfect choice for urban commuters looking for portable and lightweight transport with reliable performance. On the other hand, the Zero 8X caters more to users looking for thrill, speed, durability, and long-range capabilities. It's heavy, but for the range and power it offers, it's a compromise many are willing to make.
