Segway Ninebot Max G2 vs Inokim Light 2
The MAX G2 is the heavier suspended commuter: its Australian specifications list a 551 Wh battery, front hydraulic and rear double suspension, and 25 km/h maximum speed. The Light 2 is the lighter carrying alternative; confirm its exact configuration and current seller support. These are not the only two commuter options, and an app mode is not approval.

Australian configuration
Segway Ninebot Max G2: Segway-Ninebot Australia publishes 25 km/h for the MAX G2 supplied configuration. Overseas 35 km/h figures or an app mode do not establish the Australian device specification or public-riding eligibility.
Inokim Light 2: The catalogue retains the published capability for this older model. Confirm the exact Australian version; do not treat a riding-mode limit as proof of public-use eligibility.
Range and availability
ScootFinder estimates 55 km and 30 km respectively. Neither scooter has been physically tested by ScootFinder; hills, load, weather and speed change actual range. Seller checks are dated on the model pages and are not live delivery guarantees.
