- Ranking method: We use ESG/Rider Guide real‑world range tests for apples‑to‑apples comparability (same course, full‑power settings, stop‑and‑go with hills). “We test scooters at the highest speed settings, in stop‑and‑go traffic, and over lots of hills.”
- Scope: Performance stand‑up electric scooters (not street‑legal seated mopeds).
- Top 3 today: #1 Dualtron X Limited 86.4 mi, #2 Dualtron Storm Limited 66.8 mi, #3 Inmotion RS Midnight 60.2 mi (all ESG‑tested). Rider Guide
- Why your range will differ: Rider weight, avg. speed, elevation, temp, wind, and tire pressure change real‑world results; expect lower range at higher cruising speeds.
- Battery ≠ range: Big packs help, but motor/controller efficiency and tires matter. (You’ll see 2,300–5,000 Wh packs below with very different Wh/mile.)
- 2025 update: New models (e.g., Kaabo Wolf King GTR) are blisteringly quick but still sit below this list for range (ESG test ~43.2 mi). aridejunkie.com
The 10 longest‑range electric scooters (ranked by ESG‑tested range)
How to read the table: “Tested range” = ESG/Rider Guide range on their course. Battery specs are manufacturer or database values. “Wh/mi” ≈ battery Wh ÷ tested miles (lower is more efficient). Where packs have varied over time, notes are provided.
Rank | Model | ESG‑tested range | Battery (V/Ah, Wh) | Approx. Wh/mi |
---|
1 | Dualtron X Limited | 86.4 mi | 84V 60Ah (5,040 Wh) | ~58.3 |
2 | Dualtron Storm Limited | 66.8 mi | 84V 45Ah (3,780 Wh) | ~56.6 |
3 | Inmotion RS Midnight | 60.2 mi | 72V 40Ah (2,880 Wh) | ~47.8 |
4 | NAMI Burn‑E 2 Max | 60.0 mi | Most 2024–25 units: 72V 40Ah (2,880 Wh) | ~48.0 |
5 | Dualtron Thunder 2 | 59.5 mi | 72V 40Ah (2,880 Wh) | ~48.4 |
6 | Teewing Mars XTR | 56.8 mi | 72V 45Ah (3,240 Wh) | ~57.0 |
7 | EMOVE Roadster | 54.7 mi | 84V 40Ah (≈3,360 Wh) | ~61.4 |

In‑depth report (expert commentary, trade‑offs & who each is for)
1) Dualtron X Limited — 86.4 miles tested
- Why it wins: The largest production pack in scooterdom (5,040 Wh) and ultra‑efficient cruising make it the current distance king. Dualtron USA
- Expert quote: “I covered 86.4 miles before it finally cut off.” — Paul Somerville, Rider Guide. Rider Guide
- Good to know: It’s ~183 lb and pricey, closer to lightweight moto territory than commuter scooter. Rider Guide
2) Dualtron Storm Limited — 66.8 miles tested
- Why it’s second: A big 84V/45Ah (3,780 Wh) pack and classic Minimotors hardware. Great straight‑line efficiency, heavy chassis. Electric Scooter Guide
- Context: Still 20 miles behind the X Limited in real testing — a substantial gap at this tier. Electric Scooter Guide
3) Inmotion RS Midnight — 60.2 miles tested
- Why it’s special: Inmotion’s engineering leap brought both speed and endurance; the 72V/40Ah pack and sine‑wave controllers help it sip power off‑throttle. Rider Guide
- Expert quote: “One of the most enjoyable and thrilling models Rider Guide has ever tested.” Rider Guide
4) NAMI Burn‑E 2 Max — 60.0 miles tested
- Why it ranks here: NAMI’s adjustable suspension and smooth throttle translate power into real distance. Most 2024–25 units ship with 72V/40Ah; earlier batches used 72V/32Ah.
- Expert quote: “The NAMIs again dominate the top 5 longest‑range scooters.” Rider Guide
5) Dualtron Thunder 2 — 59.5 miles tested
- Why it lasts: The 72V/40Ah (2,880 Wh) pack plus flat‑proof tires and classic Minimotors tuning = proven long‑haul performance. Rider Guide
- Expert quote: “Record‑shattering range: 59.5 miles on our real‑world test course.” Rider Guide
6) Teewing Mars XTR — 56.8 miles tested
- Why it surprises: A value “hyper” scooter that still cracks the top ten for range thanks to a 72V/45Ah (3,240 Wh) pack. Electric Scooter Guide
- Context: Teewing claims up to 88 mi; ESG’s 56.8 mi shows why independent tests matter. TEEWING
7) EMOVE Roadster — 54.7 miles tested
- Why it ranks: Carbon‑fiber chassis, huge 84V/40Ah battery and excellent brakes. It’s also the fastest production scooter Rider Guide has tested — and still goes long. Electric Scooter Guide
- Expert quote: “Our tests recorded 54.7 miles, on a hilly riding course in normal car traffic.” Electric Scooter Guide
8) NAMI Burn‑E (original) — 53.3 miles tested
- Why it endures: Once the range champ, the original Viper’s 72V/35Ah pack and sine‑wave controllers set the benchmark for efficiency. scooter.guide
- Expert quote: “Longest‑range scooter RG has ever tested.” (at launch)
9) NAMI Burn‑E 2 — ~49.1–49.2 miles tested
- Why it’s here: Slightly smaller pack (≈2,016 Wh) than the Max, but still among the elite for distance. Rider Guide
10) VSETT 11+ Super 72 — 47.4 miles tested
- Why people pick it: Dual‑stem stability and a 72V pack make it a long‑range speed machine, though not as efficient as the top five. Retail spec varies between 32Ah and 35Ah. Rider Guide
Expert methodology & why it matters
Most makers quote best‑case numbers (light riders, flat ground, low speed). Rider Guide’s protocol is intentionally tougher and closer to how enthusiasts ride. “We test scooters at the highest speed settings, in stop‑and‑go traffic, and over lots of hills.” That’s why their ranges tend to be lower than marketing claims — and more realistic for buyers.
Buying tips for maximum real‑world range
- Bigger battery helps — but efficiency wins trips. Compare Wh/mi above; below‑50 Wh/mi indicates strong efficiency for a performance scooter.
- Speed is the #1 range killer. Cruising at 20–25 mph goes much farther than 35–45 mph on the same pack. (ESG’s hills/traffic testing shows the impact clearly.)
- Check the exact pack you’re getting. Some models (notably Burn‑E 2 Max) have shipped with different Ah capacities over time; verify on the product label or retailer page.
- Weight & tires matter. Heavier scooters roll steadily but consume more watt‑hours per mile; off‑road or knobby tires also cut range. (See per‑model Wh and test results.) Electric Scooter Guide
- Safety first. These are 40–60+ mph machines. Budget for full‑face protection, armored gloves/jacket, and a bright add‑on headlight if you ride at night. (Common recommendation across Rider Guide’s reviews.) Rider Guide

Final word
For pure distance on a single charge, Dualtron X Limited is still untouchable in 2025. If you want the best mix of speed, suspension comfort, and long‑haul range without the X’s mass and cost, Storm Limited, RS Midnight, and Burn‑E 2 Max are the sweet‑spot picks. Whatever you choose, verify the exact battery pack, set realistic speed targets, and you’ll get much closer to the numbers above in real life.
