Wolf King GT Pro Range Test
For this test I chose a destination, the airport, that was about 20 Miles (32 Kms) from Victoria to travel to and see how it would perform. Simply put I was blown away but the range of this 72V beast. If you happen to know how to turn on cruise control do let me know. I though it had something to do with pressing the negative button twice...but I couldn't make it work. At the time of this filming, I was 265lbs and 6' tall.
The Kaabo Wolf King GT premium electric scooter is built to go further, faster. Legit 70 mile range and 62 mph top speed. With more powerful 50A sine wave controllers in the stem, you can ride harder, longer without overheating. Under your feet, the King GT’s got an enormous rubberized deck, motorcycle-grade suspension on the front, and serious spring suspension on the rear. Along with those fat 11 in street tires, the GT delivers maximum comfort.
As their grand tourer, Kaabo fortified the aluminum alloy Wolf King GT design and amped up the comfort features. Upgrading from the traditional EY3 finger throttle and LCD display to a bigger, better, centered 4.2" TFT display and more comfortable thumb throttle, it’s easier to check your speed, engage eco/turbo mode and switch on your lights. And, let’s talk about the lights. The King GT has front and rear turn signals, the signature Wolf dual headlights, and under-deck lighting, along with our full attention. It looks sick, rides smooth, and is the ultimate performance machine.
Enormous 72V 35 Ah Samsung or LG battery means you can reach higher speed and go longer range
Fortified, forged aluminum design with IPX5 rating rides through wet roads and light rain (but nix the heavy downpours)
Dual hydraulic brakes paired with the front and rear suspension system deliver excellent stopping power
Luxurious cockpit with a centered TFT display, updated eco/turbo buttons, thumb throttle, and taller, wider handlebars than the Kaabo Wolf King allows you to read and comfortable reach everything you need

If I get 50 Likes I'll do another range test and push the Wolf even further :)
You got your wish! 😀🛴
Do it please I need to know
@gtone339 i did...so grateful...I filmed another range test and pushed it a lot further this time...releasing it on Sunday :)
@MrCristiancaiza your wish is my command :) :) Coming on Sunday :)
czcams.com/video/ayj6DjZ1H2I/video.html
Unreal range Tim! Thanks for giving a real world synopsis of the wolf’s range features! Great video!
@Nico Werschler thanks for watching :) :)
It was fun to do...I might be doing another one and push it even further ...this time using cruise control and both motors :)
Cheers
Tim. You gotta do a 100 percent to dead test on mode 2 with dual motors the whole way. I think that’s the way most people would ride the King GT. I know that’s what feels good to me more 2-3 is good. Thank you. Keep up the good vids.
If I get 100 likes I think I'm going to do it again and go much further :)
Great meeting you today Tim…Steven Page with Victoria Symphony was amazing this evening. Fun to meet another e-scooter enthusiast …I enjoy watching all your reviews!
Thanks, you too John! What a hoot...I posted our photo on the community tab and in my IG @timselectric
Hope that's ok :) :) Cheers and happy scooting :)
Keep them coming
Cheers Zachery :) :) Next one will be about 80 Kms/ 50 Miles....I think it 'll be at its limit with my weight but we'll see :)
Great real world view of the GT's range.
thanks so much John...another one coming soon...I pushed it even further this time :)
Long time to be standing up good luck with that!
it was fun thought :) @user-jr2vy2el6f
Hi Tim, I did a comparison of range with single vs dual motor using a different scooter and found that the difference in range was negligible. The benefit of using dual motors is that it places less strain on the motors and provides better top speed and hill climbing performance whilst achieving very similar range to using single motor. A number of other people have conducted the same test with their scooters and arrived at the same outcome. Nice review as always 👍🏻, jealous of the hot weather as it’s winter here in Oz. I personally don’t like the horizontal thumb throttle as it isn’t as ergonomic as a vertical thumb throttle, trigger throttle or twist throttle.
@Daney Zidaney I think you're right...the physics of it makes sense to me ...that the difference would be negligible if any at all. ..however sharing the load with the other motor would for sure take some strain off the single motor and of course keep the temperature down on the controller...I just didn't like spinning the tires at every stop sign :)
I think I can adjust the P settings to get it to be less robust off the line...and also if I can figure out cruise control I'll do it again and go further :)
Hey for cruise control. You need to long press the m button within 5 seconds of turning the scooter on. That’s how you access all your extra components like cruise control!
@Hyrule Master Chef thanks so much :) :)
Awesome you made it back! I had no doubt we would make it back especially on single motor which is very conservative!
Cheers Tone, I might be doing another range test
You made it! Impressive isn't it? Get those motors' voltage individually set and it's heaven.
@KLRSKIR it is impressive...so much so that I'm going to do it again if I hit 100 likes :) but this time I'll push the envelope even further ...maybe go for 50-60Miles
Hey bro I added my removable Dualtron Storm battery to my Wolf King GT the range was crazy even made a quick video of my experiment .
That's awesome, I'll check it out...is it live now? :)
You can set cruise control on automatic or manual. Automatic is when you hold trottle more than 3 sec in same speed, manual is hold speed steady an hold minus button 3 sec
That you can set in advanced meni when you turn on scooter in first 10 sec hold M you will enter in advanced meni. If you wait more than 10 sec after turn on scooter then just will reset trip.
@Блашко Ливриновски thank you so much...I'll check that out..I like the idea of it being automatic as that's how I ride typically...just cruising :)
Thanks again,.....it drove me a bit crazy on the ride having to keep my finger on the throttle...I could do it but it was fatiguing :)
For the cruise control you have to go advanced settings and create a password than you can set cruise control.
thanks so much for letting me know :) :)
cruise control is in setting on screen hold down m button as soon as you turn scooter on and you can also by a different throttle as well
@TechMack thank you so much...I need to clean it up and take the Wolf out again and try that :)
@@TimsElectric no prob I have brought mine to the car wash several time and it a high presser wash and wax even in -30 weather and it was totally fine just make sure charge ports are closed . Ill be up loading videos soon as i learn how to edit them
@@kevmack101 you're a brave man lol
@@TimsElectric Yup a true Canadian
Yo! Honest thought and opinions please mate - would you chose this or the Thunder 2, I really really need to know why too. So - WWGTPRO OR Dualtron Thunder 2, and details as to specifically why. Top Bloke. Love your Channel
I had to decide and went with the Wolf...honestly because at the time I thought more people would like to see a Wolf video over the Dualtron.
Honestly they're both amazing. The Wolf for a bigger guy might have the edge with the double stem...so if you're my size then I'd look at the Wolf :)
Cheers David :)
Hey man! Did you notice any kicking when reengaging the throttle sometimes? Mine does it like twice a ride at least.
@Jaken I didn't have that experience but if you mean what Ginger experienced I think he made a video on how to prevent it from happening :)
👍🏽❤️🤩🛴might pick one of those up 👍🏽 Maybe I will wait for the new one I think it’s coming out in October
Interesting...what have you heard?
@@TimsElectric There’s a new one coming out
any specifications?
Yeah the acceleration as set up from the factory in dual motor mode is insanely dumb, especially in "2". Gotta modify those "gears" under assistant mode to be less intense. Also yeah you gotta set up cruise control and other little niceties in the advanced settings which are a bit tricky to get into.
@Milo you're so right...once I realized I needed to setup a password then I was able to login and turn on Cruise Control...life is good ...I have another range test coming up (I shot it on Sunday)...releasing itit on Sunday :)
I'm working on paying off a kaabo mantis pro se but my next step up is gonna be a kaabo wolf king gt I do doordash and uber eats on escooter but I only need to go 20 mph maybe 25 and seems gear 2 single motor is right where I need to be it's good to learn off your video what settings to use
thanks so much...maybe I need a doordash using the Wolf as the scooter...hummm...will think on it :)
Man I live in Victoria I want 9ne of these so bad.
it's a sweet ride for Vic that's for sure :)
Did you buy it up front or get some type of payment plan ?
I didn't know that they did payment plans. I've seen other companies offer payment plans...I'll look into it :) However this unit was gifted to me to review.
I picked up a Wolf King GT Pro in October and had been skeptical of their range claims. I took a ride in the Silver Comet Trail that goes from Smyrna, GA to the Alabama State line. For this trip I left Smyrna and went to Rockmart, GA then returned to Smyrna again. Once back I rode around locally a few more miles. I begrudgingly kept it in ECO mode the entire trip. I left with 82.4v in the battery and returned with 67.9 with 85.1 total miles ridden. Based on voltage I'm guessing another 10-15 miles could be squeezed out. I'm also 220lbs.
Awesome @christopherhiatt9236, I was pretty amazed on the range I got on it :)
@@TimsElectric I'm going to try one more extreme range test to confirm I can squeeze the range out of it. If I can get 90 miles with a little left I'm going to try the full trail ride from Weaver, AL to Smyrna, GA. That will be about 92 miles. Once back to Smyrna I'll keep riding locally until it shuts off. I'd love to be able to say I broke 100 miles on a single charge on an e-scooter between two states.
that would be wild :)
Just watched your lock video. What are your thoughts on the master lock street cuff?
i haven't seen one...can you send me a link...Amazon and I'll take a peek and order one if it looks good to try :)
@@TimsElectric I actually couldn't find the model I have on Amazon. Crappy tire has them. Canadiantire.ca master lock street cuff.
Now that I watched the kryptonite review, I'm second guessing my decision... thanks tim lol ;). Another heads up.. I'm basically computer illiterate and my spelling is non existent. Trying my best to catch up
thanks so much ...I'll pop by local and see :)
it's all good i reaaal gooood at the ssp;lling :)
I'm at 94 likes...if I break 100 I'll do it again but this time go further :)
Do you have to go into the P settings and go into the advance P setting turn on cruise control you just got a scroll down to it I know because I have the wolf warrior GT👍
it's in the P settings....lol of course...I'll check and see :) :) Cheers and thanks for helping :)
No problem cheers👍
You got 41 miles and have approximately 50% left? I don't trust that last 50% to get you another 30 miles... I am getting 31/32 miles on gear 3 dual motor.
I'm going to find out very soon as I've a longer trip planned.
I said that if I got a 100 likes I'd go further....100 likes achieved so I'm planning about 54 Miles ...wish me luck :)
It depends on ur riding conditions
How much do you weight? I'm a big guy too, and I want one of this scooter.
@Romel I'm 265lbs :) :) hope that helps :)
Cheers
Tim
Single motor ok. What was your average speed?
20-25mph approx 32-40 Kph :)
Dude I. Just got mine a few weeks ago. I’m 6’2” 230 in Vegas and ride mine to work 2.6 miles or 5 miles round trip. Mine goes from full charge to 35% after 10 miles single motor. I do go. Up to 40 for 2 miles of it but I’m not getting anywhere near your range. What the hell?
that doesn't sound right at all @waggingtongue, I would get a test done on the battery pack....I would expect a lot more than what you're getting it's a 35AH battery pack!
Did you ever fix your range problem? How is it holding up for you any issue. Thinking about getting one I weigh 260 now
@@brbfitness9346 I didn't They said nothing was wrong and sent it back badly damaged. Their partners in Vegas tested it for me an just riding down the parking lot back and forth 2x for 70 yards dropped the battery by 7%. Voro claimed the scooter got damaged in shipping> i contacted AMEX and asked for a charge back and sent all the evidence and Voro had to comply since they knew they were at fault. So I'll buy something else in the spring, locally this time where they assemble and test it here first. Worth the extra $100
reddit is full of comments anout the batteries catching fire and a recall it put fuses on the battery. 40 amp. apparantly the controllers fry is it doesnt burn
I haven't seen anything on Reddit about this...can you share a comment or two for me to see?
@@TimsElectric RE: Do not buy a Wolf King until the new fork mounts are released
and
Wolf King GT Pro price jump of $1000USD? $4,690.00USD
also
New top speed 😬😬😬 The King GT does NOT mess around.
I found one about the price increase...free market , I suppose they can charge what they like :)
but I didn't see the article on fires being caused
...do share if you find it :)
The only down side is this scooter doesn't save settings for you after power down... It's so dumb as I'd love to stay in power 3 all the time with a lower "low end" power. This way acceleration is less terrifying with dual motor. Well that and the rear suspension but you can upgrade it for heavier riders for like 20 dollars or something.
I have the red and black one. I love this thing. You can hit pretty high speeds single motor power level 2/3. Slower acceleration but that isn't always a bad thing. If you really wanna go nuts change it to dual motor 2/3 and hit 50 mph pretty consistantly. and 0-40 is fast as heck especially on 3. 4 and 5 you have no need for unless you are going 50-60mph. It feels VERY safe the entire time even at really high speeds. Usually on other scooters even the Nami it feels wabbly at high speeds. this doesn't.
Totally with you on all counts. The King is an absolute beast :) It's funny you mention the King resetting after a restart, I was just riding a scooter today that does the same thing...kinda drives you nuts :)
@@TimsElectric yeah it's something they should be able to fix with firmware updates and I've seen there are some but I can't find the newest ones lol. If you ever find em make a video or I'll post them to you. At the very least it will likely give some sort of update to stability I guess
@@UchihaSumairu I'll do a mini/short video if I get an update :) :) do share if you hear of one :)
Hold down the “M” button within 5 sec after power up to get into the advanced settings.
@Russ Harris is that to find the P settings and turn on the cruise control?
@@TimsElectric no p setings in sinewave controer wolf , only on minimotors controler you have P settings
Oh i see, thank you :) :) I'll check it out :) :)
You can turn on or off ABS, cruise control, and adjust the parameters of each “gear” such as motor power and overall speed limit.
Thanks so much Russ...I did another review and share the changes I made in the setup...soooo much better now :) :)
72 volt battery 50 miles wide open 15 to 20 with him 50 miles
good guess
What kind of a range test isn't tested from full to empty/100% battery to battery cut out?
It's not recommended that you go to a dead battery...it can cause lots of issues.
I'll be doing another one very soon...next time fingers crossed it'll be close to 20% :)
Cheers
Tim
@@TimsElectric Hi Tim, with these modern scooters, you can't actually go to dead battery, 0 volts. The battery management system have a safe battery cut out voltage of around 3.0v per cell, and won't let you go lower than this. As you start getting close to that voltage, the controller will start to reduce power. This give you a warning that you're close to shutdown. And then once around the 3.0v per cell, all power is cut to the motors. So you will have 0% of usable power left, or display show that the battery is flat with the bars, but this is not a dead battery/0 volts. Discharging below 3.0v is where the damage happens, and the BMS and motor controller won't let you. Cheers!
@@tangosucka8526 and this is why I love having a CZcams channel...I get to learn from all you smarties :) :) thanks so much...totally makes sense :) :)
@@TimsElectric Ha, I'm no smarty Mate 😅, but thanks for reply.👍🏽It's best to not continually run your scooter to cut out, but definitely not going to hurt anything if done here and there. Cheers and take care!
cheers :) :)
Personally I don't like cruise control, makes stop and go traffic super akward.
@Christopher 77 I guess I'm used to it with the smaller scooters....plus it would help for longer rides.
But you might be right...I might try it and then need to turn it off :)
I'm thinking of doing another range test where I try and get to 10-20% battery life.
So cruise would be so helpful on such long runs as my finger got so fatigued :)
Kaboo have cruise control automatic and manual.
Yes indeed Gus, I didn't know when I made the video but kind folks like you let me know and the range test I did was so much easier because f it :) :)
Use the manual cruise control.
I think I set it to automatic...I'll try manual and see :)
I reviewed in automatic settings speed starting increase without warning.
@@gusruz2001 well that's not good....thanks for letting me know Gus :)
