The best long range electric scooters in Australia

Range claims are where spec sheets stretch the furthest, so this list is ranked by our realistic real world estimates, not lab figures. Every model is current, priced from Australian retailers, and can be locked to the 25 km/h legal class for states that allow private riding.

Research notes

Why each model made the list

1

Dualtron Thunder 3

Why shortlist it
Massive claimed range, 4-piston hydraulic brakes and ultra-wide 11 inch tubeless tyres.
Trade-off
Very heavy at 47.3 kg, extremely expensive, and well outside the legal class at 100 km/h.
2

NAMI Burn-E Viper Max (40Ah)

Why shortlist it
Massive 2880 Wh battery, 8400W peak dual motor power and 4-piston hydraulic brakes.
Trade-off
At 90 km/h and 47 kg, this is firmly a private land device, and retailer naming for this generation ('Viper 2 Max' vs 'Viper 3 Max') is inconsistent.
4

Mearth RS Pro

Why shortlist it
Ships capped at 25 km/h out of the box for straightforward legal riding, with puncture-proof tyres.
Trade-off
The manufacturer's own 100 km range claim is a best-case lab figure (flat, light rider, 15 km/h); no independent real world figure could be verified. No suspension.
5

Mearth GTS Max

Why shortlist it
Big 1061 Wh battery, dual disc brakes and full suspension in an Australian-brand package.
Trade-off
At 70 km/h it sits well outside the 25 km/h legal class, and is heavy at 41 kg. Stock was limited across AU retailers checked in July 2026.
6

Inmotion S1

Why shortlist it
A big 675 Wh battery giving strong claimed range plus a high 140 kg max rider weight, ships default-limited to 25 km/h.
Trade-off
Basic front drum brake, and unlocked top speed of 30 km/h is modest compared with faster private-land scooters.

A manufacturer range figure is produced at low constant speed with a light rider on flat ground. Australian commuting is none of those things. The models below all deliver an estimated 45 km or more of genuine real world range, enough for a 20 km round trip with days of margin, or a long weekend ride without range anxiety.

How we picked: ScootFinder does not do hands on testing. These picks come from manufacturer specifications, Australian retailer pricing verified in August 2026, and each state's road rules, using only models that are current and carry a real Australian price. Range figures are realistic real world estimates, not lab claims. Prices move quickly, so always confirm with the retailer.

The picks

Inmotion S1

$1,099 (RRP $1,899) | 65 km real world (est.) | 24 kg | 30 km/h unrestricted | 25 km/h capable

A big 675 Wh battery giving strong claimed range plus a high 140 kg max rider weight, ships default-limited to 25 km/h. The trade off: basic front drum brake, and unlocked top speed of 30 km/h is modest compared with faster private-land scooters.

Navee GT5 Max

$1,999 | 63 km real world (est.) | 24.8 kg | 32 km/h unrestricted | 25 km/h capable

Strong claimed range up to 90 km, a rear disc brake and a higher max rider weight than the GT3 Pro. The trade off: global spec sheets list region-specific top speeds from 25 to 32 km/h; confirm the exact AU firmware limit with the retailer.

Bolzzen Hustler 4816

$1,199 (RRP $1,399) | 60 km real world (est.) | 27.4 kg | 50 km/h unrestricted | 25 km/h capable

A big claimed 70 km range and 130 kg rider capacity for the price, with coil-over suspension front and rear. The trade off: single motor means less hill-climbing punch than Bolzzen's SuperStreet or Phoenix, and 27.4 kg is not the lightest fold.

Bolzzen Phoenix 5223

$2,299 (RRP $2,699) | 60 km real world (est.) | 31 kg | 65 km/h unrestricted | 25 km/h capable

Hydraulic disc brakes, oil coilover suspension and a strong 80 km claimed range for a dual motor scooter. The trade off: at 31 kg it is heavier to carry than Bolzzen's other models, and the 65 km/h mode is private property use only.

Segway MAX G3

$1,594 (RRP $1,899) | 56 km real world (est.) | 24.3 kg | 45 km/h unrestricted | 25 km/h capable

Genuine front and rear hydraulic suspension, an 850W motor and an 80 km claimed range in Segway's current commuter flagship. The trade off: heavier than the lighter F-series models, and the unrestricted top speed sits above the legal class.

Mukuta 10+ 21Ah

$2,299 | 55 km real world (est.) | 36 kg | 80 km/h unrestricted | 25 km/h capable

Dual hydraulic brakes, all-terrain tyres and a listed 25 km/h restricted mode alongside serious off-road power. The trade off: at 36 kg it is heavy to carry, and full 80 km/h performance and long charge times of 10 to 12 hours are private property only.

What to weigh up

Big batteries mean big weight: nothing on this list is fun to carry far, so long range suits riders who park at ground level or roll straight in. Charge time matters too, a 600 Wh battery on a standard charger takes most of a working day. And remember the legal riding caps: range is about how far, not how fast, and every state that allows private riding caps speed regardless of what the scooter can do. State by state details are in our law guide.

Every model here is current, carries a verified Australian price, and can be genuinely limited to the 25 km/h legal class. No discontinued stock, no lab range figures.

Frequently asked questions

What e-scooter has the longest real range in Australia?

Among current legal class capable models, the top of our list above delivers the longest realistic range, around 55 km real world. Performance scooters claim more but most cannot be ridden legally in public.

Why is real range so much less than claimed?

Claimed figures are measured at low constant speeds with light riders. Real commuting with stops, hills and headwinds typically delivers 60 to 75 percent of the claim, which is what our estimates reflect.

How much range do I need for a 25 km commute?

Aim for at least 50 km of real world range. Batteries lose capacity with age and winter cold, so buying double your daily distance keeps the scooter useful for years.

Do long range scooters take longer to charge?

Yes, roughly in proportion to battery size. Expect 6 to 9 hours on the standard charger for the bigger batteries here; some models offer fast chargers or dual charging ports.
