Compare the Segway Ninebot ES4 and the EVOLV Tour XL Plus

Purchasing an electric scooter presents you with an array of choices. Two notable models include the Segway Ninebot ES4 and the EVOLV Tour XL Plus. While both are viable transportation modes, they distinguish themselves in several ways. The Segway Ninebot ES4 is lightweight with a weight of 30.9 lbs compared to the EVOLV Tour XL Plus's 55 lbs - making the ES4 more portable. While the Segway ES4 offers a speed of 18.6 mph and a range of 28 miles, EVOLV Tour can outpace and outlast it with a top speed of 31 mph, and a max range of 50 miles. Both models have rear and front lights for safety, but only EVOLV Tour offers signal lights. While both have a good suspension system, the EVOLV Tour has 10-inch pneumatic fat tires compared to Ninebot's 8-inch front and 7.5-inch rear tires. That means the EVOLV Tour potentially offers a smoother ride especially on bumpy roads. The EVOLV Tour also boasts a more powerful motor with 1000W versus Ninebot's 300W. That said, the Segway Ninebot ES4 excels in being a more than capable scooter for those prioritizing portability over speed. Both models have their own specific draws, making the deciding factor ultimately fall upon the user's needs and preferences.
