    Good to know you got another sponsored video, and we get to see another e-scooter review! 😃 The GoTrax G5 looks sturdy, and I like the blue lights on the side of the deck. It handled the rough road surfaces well, and good to know the brakes work. 👍 Good job with always picking scenic backgrounds to feature your e-scooters. 😍 Thank you for sharing this e-scooter review and ride, AK! 🤗🛴

    I normally wouldn't watch a whole video that's basically an ad for something.
    But I've had an inkling to get a scooter like this to put in my car or carry on the subway to ride to that "last block" to my destination.

    I got this scooter last week and it was the best purchase I’ve made in a while lol. I think the G6 would’ve be perfect as it gives you that extra 10 mile range and a lock feature. Constant acceleration with a 500w motor definitely gets the battery draining. G5 still an amazing new starter scooter, I just didn’t want to wait 2 months for the G6 😅

    I have a GoTrax G4 (2+ problem free years) and I am considering an upgrade to this new G5. Primarily for the suspension, however the 500 W motor with a 48 V battery is also a perk. GoTrax seems to have upped its game, including its customer service. Do you think I should wait for the h coming soon) G6?

      40 miles, like yours. if you still have it... just make sure that your tires are really hard inflated. less friction means better range and better gliding. mine is very early first gen. from end of 2019. 4900 miles in 3 years. and temperatures has major effect on maximum range..
