My Take on Fast Electric Scooters (and Why I Went With an All-Terrain One)

Hey folks,
I’ve been riding e-scooters for a few years now, and recently I started looking into the faster models. I didn’t realize how much difference motor power and build quality make until I tried a few. If you’ve ever wondered what makes an electric scooter truly fast — or which ones are worth it — here’s what I’ve learned.

What Makes a Scooter Fast (and Stable)

Speed isn’t just about the motor. It’s a mix of several things — motor wattage, battery voltage, wheel size, and even the frame design.

  • Anything below 500W feels sluggish once you hit inclines or carry extra weight.

  • Dual-motor setups (1000–2000W) are a game-changer — smoother acceleration and better climbing.

  • Bigger wheels + suspension = way more control at high speed.

My Experience Trying a Few Models

I’ve tested a few scooters recently, including the iScooter iX7Pro and the iX-Series 1200W.

  • The iX7Pro (dual 2000W) honestly surprised me — I got around 45 km/h (28 mph) on open ground and it handled gravel and rough paths with no problem.

  • The iX-Series 1200W feels a bit more balanced for everyday rides — not too heavy, still powerful enough for quick commutes and weekend rides.

If you like mixing city commuting with off-road fun, an all-terrain scooter like the iX7Pro is worth it. It’s fast but also stable — and I’d pick that over something lightweight that shakes at 30+ mph.

A Quick Note on Safety

If you’re going for speed, take safety seriously.

  • Always wear a helmet and gloves (trust me, you’ll be glad you did).

  • Check your brakes regularly — dual-disc or E-ABS systems make a huge difference.

  • Don’t rush to top speed until you get comfortable handling the torque.

Final Thoughts

Fast electric scooters are a different experience — they’re not just about getting somewhere, they’re about the ride itself. For me, the all-terrain ones hit the sweet spot: fast, powerful, and built to handle anything from pavement to dirt paths.

Curious what others are riding — anyone else here tried dual-motor setups or all-terrain scooters like the iX7Pro? Would love to hear how they perform long-term. https://www.ihoverboard.co.uk/
