The GoTrax GX3 electric scooter pulls 2000 watts and hits 38mph. This is a GoTrax GX3 review showing what this scooter can do and what it can't. Hopefully this helps you make up your mind if this is the right escooter for you!
Great review! Just reached 600mi on mine and so far, very few complaints. On the good side: one of the best off road adjustable rebound suspensions I've ever ridden but also great on road, built like a tank and zero rattles/squeaks, absolutely rigid stem, tons of low end torque for only being 1000w motors, nice easy to read display and control pad, great range of up to 50mi at 16mph flat cruising, great deck and kick plate angle, awesome brakes and feel. Minor issues: Cruise control is surge-y. With cruise on your turn a corner, riding on the smaller inside diameter of the tire, which tricks the cruise into thinking the scooter is going faster, cutting the power. Then when you stand it back up after the turn, the power surges. The same thing happens up and down minor grades. They need to relax the sensitivity values a bit. The tires say tubeless but they're not, Let the air out and wiggle the stem... they're definitely tubes. I already had to seal one with sealant and had the tire broken down off the rim. The battery is smaller than stated and is actually between 1210Wh and 1248Wh not 1350Wh. GoTrax lists it different on the website, instruction manual and on the scooter itself. The bottom of the deck as well as the battery, has a sticker right on it stating that it's 50.4V 24Ah = 1209.6Wh. That said, 50.4V is a odd voltage for a 58.8V input charger which makes me think it's a standard 52V scooter. 52V x 24Ah = 1248Wh, therefore the 1209.6 - 1248Wh range that I mentioned. Also, no regen braking. There may be larger scooters that do better on dirt but there are none smaller or lighter. An argument could be made for the Nami Klima due to its suspension but you'd have to install knobby tires because it comes with street tires. Still, the Klima is a 10" tire scooter and doesn't have the "float" in powdery trails or shallow sand that the GX3 has.
I took delivery of this literally less than a week ago and I tell ya whut
it's a beast - it may not be the fastest scooter but it will drag you up a wall if you need it to
got it on the summer sale so it was dumb cheap compared to anything close to its build strength and quality; I'm 230lbs (16.5 stone!) and the double rear suspension setup cannot be overstated how stable and responsive it is with zero flex in the front as well on hard pushes - the brakes are also dynamite too.
No idea why people are obsessed with going 50mph on a scooter anyway, it's just dumb af. This scooter in the video is more than enough.
The brakes are dog shit
Paying 2k for a scooter with pneumatic tires is dumb. This company is terrible and their CS is awful. Had to open a pp claim to get my money back before they would do anything/respond
I've been watching the GoTrax GX3 for a while now, but it's still expensive for me
Do monthly payments bro only 111$ a month
Better scooters to get for $2k. A base Nami Klima would destroy this for the same $1999.
It's not just you, to scooter as a whole is too expensive:
2x 1000w for 2000? Not enough
Advertised as an off-road scooter while not having the IP rating for a puddle
Speed for the price is meh
@@Bmr4lifegotrax has better quality by a mile
buy literally any other brand, you'll have a much better time. Someone reputable
Do not try riding in soft terrain like sand. Also, off road scooters have issues with the brake disc colliding with rocks and curbs because they don't have any clearance; they ride extremely close to the ground with no protection. In addition, the hydraulic brakes become clogged and seize closed often.
Awesome review cant wait to get my gx3
I got into e-scooters because of your vids, and I am so glad I did!!
I bought this in May 2024. Put 80 miles on it and the rear hub motor crapped out. Apparently this is a problem that Go-Trax knows about. After spotty customer service, they ultimately replaced the scooter. They did the right thing. Apparently there is quite the delay of getting new rear wheel hubs. The scooter itself is awesome. More than enough speed, more than 40mph is nuts IMO. Brakes are great. Great off road and suspension is great. 35-40 miles range at best in middle mode. never getting 60miles on this thing.
Brakes are fucking awful and warp significantly
@@matthewcowger2857they warp if you get on them hard. They stop very well. I just got new one in the mail so they did the right thing
go with a reputable brand like segway or niu. Shouldve just returned and got your money back
Ordered from Best Buy two days ago, can’t wait to try this bad boy!
Don't tell anyone, but when I got my GT2, I was so excited to ride it, I forgot to bolt the head on. Congrats, hope you love your new scooter. Also I have injured both shoulders and the ball of my right foot. Not from crashing but from overuse. These scooters are crazy addictive.

Great video. looks like a decent duel motor scooter with a decent size battery. I think getting this on a sale would be a great buy,
I've found every dog in the area with my scooter. They hate scooters. Cool scooter. Nice features.
At these prices you really have to want a scooter because with awesome bikes like the ecells and wired freedom near this price range it's a hard decision to make.....I'm looking for a scooter that has a seat option that can carry my 230 frame and still be able to get 30mph + speeds as well as hill climbing and off road is a plus I just feel like these scooters are all the same but have different names....so many have all the same specs and even the same design on most of them a friend of mine told me he bought some Amazon scooter and it is half the price of these and performs just as good if not better 6months later and it's still going strong....its just so difficult to decide with all the "brands"
I actually got given a cheaper e-scooter earlier this year. Some intersting diffence with an e-bike is how much better they normally fold and once folded their a shape thats fairly easy to pickup / move around / put in vehicles were as lots of e-bikes fold but into awkard smaller shapes and are even heavier. The other difference scooters are a workout! Its surprising how much exersise it is to throw your weight forward back, side to side squating down so your legs are suspension for bumps. Not saying e-bikes cant be exercise, but aggresively riding a scooter i think makes you exercise in order to not fall over haha.
@@psavar97 leaning side to side while batteries move you forward is not an exercise.
Great job as usual and such a beautiful view!
Available at Best Buy. Wow. Thanks, great review.
I bolt executive office chairs to e scooters it makes it feel like driving a car!
The dog was trying to tell us what he thinks about scooters.......and that he likes the 5-Star better! 🤣
I was literally just checking the specs of this scooter on the gotrax site
great vid would love to see more offroad content too, good test for scooters/bikes
Honestly I was considering getting this electric scooter I love everything about it, but I gotta save up money for quite awhile for how expensive it is 😔
Hey, you're the same guy who did the Mukuta video! I was undecided between the Mukuta and the Vsett10+. Thanks for making detailed video's. It helps a lot for others before investing in alt transportation.
Good vid matt. Decent, go trax be pushin. Imagine that trail on the big boy bikes ha. small tire scooters suck off-road
It doesn't appear to provide a discount with your link.
Same here. It says page not found. Could it be because I live in Canada?
Always a great review. Have you done the Nami scooters?
this looks on par with an ULTRON Electric Scooter with a steat mod free but its slower in charge rate. this ev razor costs + 400$ with fast-charge while being slower, if you use them for uber eats like deliveries the 2.5 + hr charge rate over 6hr charge rate makes a real difference. also these ev's with dual motors they are better to use on snow ridden streets an sidewalks if you ride in the winter time too.
Please review the teewing mars xtr 10000w next
Who agrees that juiced joyride should review the suniGoo x7🤔?
Can you review the kaabo wolf king gtr next please 😁
12:41 brooo I hate when people dooo that
How do you ride a scooter that has wobble but it's impossible to install a steering damper on it? any riding tips to prevent the death wobble?
The link to the scooter doesn't work for me. Maybe only works for those in the US?
I've wanted the GX3 since I first heard about it in 2023. But I found that replacing tubeless tires a little time consuming. Finding the proper tire size and beading them onto the rim was annoying. The additional speed and option of a split rim on the Vsett 10+ won me over.
gotrax doesnt use tubeless. All their scooters are tubed
what app do you use??
Longshot vut you have any used decently priced scooters your willing to sell ?
54v with a 54.6 charger ? So its 48v right ? I just thought that was funny that they list it as 54v.
I like it but i like my GT2 better😊
that's pretty good but what apps do you use for the range and speed
Bro u gotta bexley raven please try it no one reviews them pleaseeee review it
Can you try KuKirin G2 MAX please?
NICE
love the vids
What GPS speed app you using?
lol in your LS7+ review you changed the shoe size from 13 at the start to 14 later in the video, gotta watch this now to see if you go from 14 -> 15
I’m a growing boy, been eating my green beans
Can u plz test the shengmilo s600 e-bike I’m buying that next but I can’t tell if it’s a good e-bike Maybe u can try it out ??🙏😏
Can you please do a kukirin g2 pro review?
Looks like Apollo Phantom. But quality is way better than Apollo.
Really?? Please explain, im torn in between on the Apollo Phantom and GX3. I don’t mind the extra $s on the phantom for more power, range, brand, app compatibility, manual regen braking and tubeless self healing tires.
Do a review of the zsnake electric scooter
have hear from multiple people that the Customer service is Subpar
🔥🙏🏽🚀❤️
cool of course. But expensive
This will prove to be the best scooter on the planet.
Ion like the tires gotrax have on all there scooters they go flat way to easily
🦊🦊🦊
mashallah❤❤❤first
Just looks liike an alibaba reskin you shouldn't buy it
gotrax off road lol... aaaand its flat
At that price it should atleast be 52v...
It is 52v...
So little protection, have you broken a bone or been injured on an e-scooter yet?
