Compare the Kaabo Mantis 8 and the Fluid Freeride Horizon (13 Ah)

When examining the Kaabo Mantis 8 and Fluid Freeride Horizon (13 Ah) electric scooters, several differences emerge distinguishing these two popular models.

Firstly, the Kaabo Mantis 8 is equipped with dual 800W motors capable of reaching a top speed of 35 mph, while the Fluid Freeride Horizon operates with a single 500W motor reaching a top speed of 25 mph. This puts Kaabo Mantis 8 ahead in terms of speed.

Ride quality is another important factor to consider. The Mantis 8 comes with dual suspension, providing excellent shock absorption and a comfortable ride. On the other hand, the Horizon offers only front and rear spring suspension, which may result in a slightly less smooth ride in comparison.

Battery life and range are also important comparison points. The Horizon boasts a 13 Ah battery offering an approximate range of 20 miles, while Mantis 8 claims a range of 30 miles with its 18.2 Ah battery. So, if long distances are a priority, the Mantis 8 comes out on top.

However, when it comes to cost, the Horizon wins. It’s a more budget-friendly option compared to the Mantis 8, which packs more premium features and is priced accordingly.

The rider's personal needs and preferences will ultimately determine the superior model. Both scooters are well-suited for urban commuting, but the Kaabo Mantis 8's superior speed, range and suspension are counterbalanced by the more affordable price of the Fluid Freeride Horizon.
