The Mantis King GT is a 33.2 kg dual-motor scooter with a 1,440 Wh battery, over 70 km/h private-property capability, adjustable oil-spring suspension and hydraulic brakes. Australian retailers currently list several colours and materially different stock states.

ScootFinder verdict

Is the Kaabo Mantis King GT worth considering?

It is one of the more manageable high-performance Kaabos, but that comparison is relative: it is still heavy, powerful and unsuitable for public-path commuting. Its strongest case is the balance of adjustable suspension, braking hardware and range for private-land use.

Where you can ride it

Legality is computed from this scooter's specs against each state and territory's rules. It is a guide, not legal advice. Results use published catalogue evidence and the linked official definitions, not physical certification. Unknown required measurements stay unconfirmed.

Range labels: Claimed is the manufacturer figure, Estimated is ScootFinder's planning estimate, and ScootFinder tested is only shown after our own Range Test. How we rate range.

About the range figure

The 90 km claim is a best-case figure. iScoot reports a 64 km result for a 78 kg rider using both motors on undulating terrain; conditions and riding mode still matter.

Should you buy it?

Best suited to

Riders who want strong dual motor performance and hydraulic suspension for private land or track use.

Standout strength

Hydraulic suspension, strong hydraulic disc brakes and a big claimed range in a folding package.

Main compromise

At over 70 km/h and 33.2 kg, this is a private land device. AU retailer stock is inconsistent.

Pros

  • Adjustable front and rear suspension
  • Hydraulic brakes with EABS
  • High 150 kg payload
  • Useful verified retailer choice

Cons

  • Private-land device
  • Heavy at 33.2 kg
  • Stock and colour availability differ by seller

Check before buying. AU retailers market an in-app 'street legal' speed mode; treated as a private land performance device here given its power and weight. Confirm current stock, since availability varies by retailer.

Kaabo Mantis King GT: questions buyers ask

Is the Kaabo Mantis King GT legal in Australia?

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.

Can I ride the Kaabo Mantis King GT in Queensland?

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.

Can I ride the Kaabo Mantis King GT in NSW?

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.

How far does the Kaabo Mantis King GT really go?

The claimed range is 90 km, measured by the maker in ideal conditions. ScootFinder estimates about 64 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.

How much does the Kaabo Mantis King GT weigh?

It weighs 33.2 kg. The maximum rider weight is 150 kg. It folds for carrying and storage.

How much is the Kaabo Mantis King GT in Australia?

When we last checked on 12 October 2026, the lowest price we found was $2,899 at iScoot against an RRP of $4,699. It was sold out there at the time. We list 2 Australian sellers on this page. Prices change, so check the seller before buying.

Is the Kaabo Mantis King GT waterproof?

It has an IPX5 rating, which means it resists low pressure water jets, such as steady rain and road spray. No e-scooter is truly waterproof, so avoid deep puddles and do not wash it with a hose.
