The Apollo Explore 2.0 is a 27 kg single-motor scooter with 1,650 W peak output, a 648 Wh battery, triple-spring suspension, self-healing 10 inch tyres and an IP66 rating. Its 40 km/h top mode is explicitly marketed for private-property use.
It is a strong specification match for a private-property rider wanting a less extreme alternative to the Phantom. Apollo Australia listed it in stock at $1,499 when checked in October 2026, but its inability to qualify as a straightforward 25 km/h device makes the Apollo Go the better public-commuting choice.

Apollo states up to 60 km in Eco mode. ScootFinder uses 42 km as a mixed-use planning estimate and has not independently tested the Explore's range.
Riders wanting a mid-power single motor Apollo with triple spring suspension and strong claimed range for private property use.
Triple spring suspension, IP66 water resistance and self-healing tubeless tyres with a strong claimed 60 km range.
At 40 km/h it exceeds the 25 km/h legal class, and Apollo's own marketing frames top speed as private property use.
Check before buying. Apollo markets the 40 km/h top speed as private property use; understand your state rules before buying.
No public-riding approval is confirmed from the required catalogue evidence. Eligibility remains unconfirmed in Queensland. An app speed mode alone is not approval. WA device eligibility is not confirmed by speed alone; weight, dimensions and configuration matter. NSW personal e-scooters remain private-property only; NT has a separate maximum 200 W / 10 km/h definition. Rider age, equipment, licence and route conditions still apply.
QLD maximum capability exceeds 25 km/h. The transition through 28 February 2027 requires manufacture before 1 July 2026 and former compliance; neither a model year nor an app setting proves it. Confirm the exact unit; do not ride on this result. General rule: age 16+ and a valid learner-or-higher driver licence. Specified exceptions cover supervised riders aged 12 to 17 (including unlicensed 16 and 17 year olds), eligible medical exemptions for riders 16+, and designated recreational areas. Supervision and exemption conditions still apply. A transitional reasonable-excuse provision for the licence requirement runs through 29 November 2026; it is not a blanket licence exemption. The current PMD definition includes motor-only capability no more than 25 km/h. Through 28 February 2027, a transition covers devices manufactured before 1 July 2026 that met the former definition. A model year or app mode does not establish this exception; we do not presume it for unverified units. 12 km/h on footpaths and crossings, and when passing pedestrians on shared paths. Otherwise obey signed path limits up to 25 km/h. Roads up to 60 km/h and specified bicycle-lane exceptions; check signs and the route.
Personal e-scooters remain illegal on NSW roads and road-related areas, including footpaths, shared paths and bicycle lanes. Use a personal e-scooter on private property only. Shared hire trials have separate approved areas and rules.
The claimed range is 60 km, measured by the maker in ideal conditions. ScootFinder estimates about 42 km for mixed everyday riding. That is an estimate, not a test result. Hills, rider weight, cold weather and riding at top speed all cut range, so plan with some battery in reserve.
It weighs 27 kg. The maximum rider weight is 120 kg. It folds for carrying and storage.

It has an IP66 rating, which means it resists strong water jets. No e-scooter is truly waterproof, so avoid deep puddles and do not wash it with a hose.
