  • The 4 Best Electric Scooters of 2025

    By Austin Palmer, Chris McNamara|TechGearLabVerifiedBest for Most People While some models received higher overall scores, we still recommend the GoTrax G4 for most users because of its strong performance, lightweight design, and reasonable price. Although the Niu Kqi3 Max scored slightly higher, it weighs 10 pounds more and isn't significantly faster. Similarly, the Segway Ninebot MAX G2 is nearly twenty pounds heavier and only offers about 2MPH more speed, which most users likely don't need.

OutdoorGearLab

The GearLab mission is simple: to create world's best outdoor gear reviews. Our secret sauce is side-by-side comparative reviews. Here's how it works: 1) We select the top products in each category. 2) Our Gear Testers put the products through detailed side-by-side tests, both in the lab and in the field, and score each product across a range of weighted categories. 3) We rank the products, explain why, and give awards to the best. Our review process starts with selection: we look at hundreds of products to determine the top contenders in each category. We then buy the top contenders for detailed hands-on testing. To provide a fair basis for scoring, we develop a set of objective lab tests for each category that will help us quantify important differences between competing products.
