Comparing the GOTRAX Xr and WEPED Fold Electric Scooters: A Detailed Review
If you're thinking of purchasing an electric scooter, today our focus is on two popular options: the GOTRAX Xr and the WEPED Fold.
Starting with design, the GOTRAX Xr flaunts a no-nonsense, sleek design ideal for riders who prefer practicality. The WEPED Fold, on the other hand, is more flashy, offering a foldable feature that adds more portability and convenience.
When it comes to performance, the GOTRAX Xr is powered by a 300W motor that can reach up to 15.5 mph. Its impressive range is about 12-15.5 miles, depending on terrain and rider weight. The 36V 5.2Ah Li-ion battery delivers long-lasting performance and charging takes around 3-4 hours.
The WEPED Fold is super powered. It boasts a dual 2000W motor that can reach an astonishing speed of up to 50 mph and a massive range of 50 miles or more, larger than most electric scooters. The 60V 30Ah Lithium-Ion battery takes about 6-8 hours to recharge.
Ride comfort varies greatly with the GOTRAX Xr providing dual brakes and 8.5 air-filled tires that can handle urban commuting. Meanwhile, the WEPED Fold, targeted at hardcore riders, provides additional comfort with dual disc brakes and 10 tubeless tires delivering excellent shock absorption for off-road rides.
Price-wise, the GOTRAX Xr is more affordable, ideal for riders on a budget seeking reliable performance. The WEPED Fold is a premium product with a higher cost, making it more suitable for those willing to invest in higher speeds and a longer range.
To conclude, both electric scooters serve different purposes. The GOTRAX Xr is perfect for daily commutes with its practical design and reasonable pricing, while the WEPED Fold triumphs in power, range and off-roading abilities, but comes with a steep price tag.
