Both scooters have similar features, including an LED headlight, electric brakes, and bell, but the ES2 shines with its additional feature, the ambient underglow lights, and cruise control. In contrast, GT Sport has a rear coaxial cable offering better stopping capability.

When it comes to weight, the ES2, at around 27.5 lbs, is substantially lighter than the GT Sport, which weighs around 36 lbs. However, the GT Sport's sturdier build allows it to accommodate riders up to 385 lbs, while the ES2's weight limit is approximately 220 lbs.
