- KUGOO Kirin M3 review is here and I talk about everything that this M3 scooter has to offer. After reviewing many e-scooters including others from the KUGOO range, I may have found the perfect scooter for commuting.
I was told by Kukirin that the M3 model is now discontinued . Dont worry though, I have reviewed many more Kukirin scooters linked below

Dude, thanks to your advice, I got the M3 love it to bits!! Amazing thanks a mill, as a biker, we always look at other advances. What do you make of the G4, power power ... anyway question is bro are you gonna do a review of the Kugoo G4 . Hope all well with you mate
I’m glad your happy. I love it. Definitely KUGOO are improving big time. Yes that G4 definitely looks nice but a bit pricey. I hope to do a review on it. But all said, the M3 is the best KUGOO scooter I’ve reviewed ⚡️
@@Movelectrics wicked nice one man! Made the right choice so cheers again an be safe 👍🏼
hi, i was wondering what site i should use for the uk as this one does not ship to the uk, thanks
Unfortunately I had a look and Geekbuying is an option. Bought from them before affiliate.geekbuying.com/gkbaffiliate.php?id=2422&url=966649

Hey, just bought the M3 3-4 days ago! It's a really wonderful scooter, you were the first person I watched when researching the M3, thank you
My only complaint is that the wire you used to lock the scooter doesn't go in all the way after I first took it out, not sure why but that's a very small problem, scooters been working amazing
Great video!
Glad you are happy. It’s definitely a scooter to keep. The cable probably has a small kink in it but would not worry about it. Safe riding and thank you very much for the support 👊🏼
Hi I'm glad you got one. I'm thinking about buying one what is the suspension like and on the app how fast can you get the speed up to MPH and have you got a flat at the front tire yet? But I'm very excited
@@user-mn2zs2tb3c The app is great I have my phone on a mount so I can change the speed limit in 5 seconds yes it got mph.
I go to work every day by scooter at night. It is rainy on many days and the road is long and dark. I am always worried about water and safety on the road. I think I have found the perfect scooter for work.
Thanks, your review was really great ❤
Same here in my country with bad rain. You’ll love it!

@@Movelectricshi love your videos I'm thinking about buying one what I need to know is it a smooth ride on gravel Rds. and on your video on the app I saw you put it up to 50 from 40 . In the app. and can you put self-healing tires on the front tire? Or even tubeless tires.
@@user-mn2zs2tb3cit’s a street scooter. For gravel road is something a scooter that has off-road tyres like the Varla Eagle One I reviewed. Made a video on changing the tyres.
Yes on the app you can actually adjust the speed to your liking.
All said, if it’s mainly street riding you’re using it for, it definitely won’t disappoint. Price is ridiculously low.
Hey i just purchased one of these a couple of weeks ago and loving it, Im just curious if there is a way to replace the front pneumatic tire with a honeycomb one so i dont have any anxiety about flats. Any ideas on a possible replacement and where to find it?
No need for a solid in front. Just keep the pressure maintained to 45psi.
Hi, love the content, is the discount code still available?

Do you fell like 40kmh is fast enough where it is fun and is there a big difference going from 30 to 40 km/h in the fun scale
40km/h is fast enough for a scooter like this.
I got this scooter yesterday but the front suspension is really stiff. When i drive on a straight road it can happen that its bumpy. Is it possible to adjust it and how?
Scooter is only new. After a few rides things will loosen up. Can’t adjust the suspension on this. A good idea is to also get some silicone spray for the suspension. A good few scooters I’ve had I’ve used silicone, easy maintenance.
Enjoy the scooter, you’ll love it. Ride safe ⚡️
@Movelectrics Thank you
Im having an issue with the app to connect it to the M3, has any other had that proplem. or may im doing something wrong i dont know
The app is called ‘Green Drive’
@@Movelectrics Thanks alot i got it now and works good. thanks alot for you help and to your videos. And the M3 just got it yesterday and i love it, thanks to you that i got that scooter
@@floki.g it’s definitely a scooter to keep. Glad you are happy ⚡️
Hey great news for me I found a website that I can order the scooter from. And it will come to Jamaica 🇯🇲 so dose it holds it speed. 25 mph? And dose cruise control work. Is it able to get self healing tires for the scooter. Have you got a puncture yet
Which site? Just make sure it’s a legitimate company. Top speed is 43km/h (might get faster if you are a lighter weight) I’m 80kg.
Back tyre is a solid one but very comfortable. Front tyre is pneumatic so keep the pressure around 45psi. You could add slime to help prevent punctures but in my experience, keeping the pressure maintained is key.
It has good quality tyres on it. You will really like the scooter and of course, wear a helmet at least.
@@Movelectrics sunsky for 89 Jamaican dollars but have to pay money on top for shipping. in English pounds 479. I'm going through a company that I use thay will not use certain companies like Alibaba. Hey I'm very light. on my hiboy S2 I fly up Hills 😅😅 lol 😂 I will it definitely be getting the max speed out of it. Thanks so much for your concern
What about battery? It says 40km range in the specs.
Up to 40kms in up optimal conditions. Weight, speed, temperature, hills, all play a part in range.
The slower you go, the more range you get for example. All said, for myself that weighs 80kg and lives in a cold country, going TOP speed, I’d estimate it to be 20-25km range. All scooters follow the same principal.
Brilliant scooter though ⚡️

750 km with m3 and almost two months...still working. Amazing scooter!!! @Movelectrics best choice. Minimalist and functional!
@@1serbanica glad to hear!
what is better to buy the g2 pro or the m3?
M3 100% UNLESS you need a seated scooter. It’s currently on a deal now www.kukirin-scooter.com/products/kugookirin-m3-electric-scooter?sca_ref=4122434.iTwt6pH9bx
Is worth buy this or the G2 PRO???
I reviewed the G2 Pro a while ago and I would absolutely NOT recommend it (have a look at that full review for more information). M3 all day long. At the moment it’s at a great price

Just ordered mine after reading your review! After this year I definitely wanted something water proof! ;)
It’s a great scooter. Did you use the discount code and link in the description?
@@Movelectrics yeah, used it! Thanks! Hopefully it'll arrive over the next couple days. Finger crossed the w/e will be a bit drier!
@@williammaddler mine took around 5-7 working days
@@Movelectrics ah, then it could be next week. I'd still love a dry weekend 😁
@movelectrics so long for the dry weekend...
Dobar dan, sta kazete kako se ponasa na usponima da li da rizikujem i kupim,imam 76kg
This M3 is now unfortunately discontinued
Just ordered the G4. Should I charge it as soon as I receive it?
Absolutely to 100%. Haven’t tried the G4 yet but it’s more of a longer range scooter.
M3 is more commuter. Don’t forget to also check tyre pressure and have around 45psi.
@@Movelectrics thanks for the advice much appreciated!
When is range test coming out
Going on the lower gear, plus of course weight, hills, temperature etc, I would say 35km range. Honestly, I love this scooter. Of course it ain’t for crazy long distances but as a general commuter, it has everything. Many factors to consider as we all ride different.
The above factors apply to every scooter.
whats your opinion on Loco Motion Pro which is apparently the exact same scooter for double money ?
@@danielralov4939 can’t comment as I never tried it to be honest
@@Movelectrics give it a try so its Irish brand :D
What’s the range that you got on 1 full charge?
Going on the lower gear, plus of course weight, hills, temperature etc, I would say 35km range. Honestly, I love this scooter. Of course it ain’t for crazy long distances but as a general commuter, it has everything.
Nice! Looking to buy this here in the Philippines, it’s called Kuickwheel here but it is the same model, the IP rating is a major plus, not many scooters survive being drenched in the rain.
Is KUGOO Kirin M3 better than engwe s6 and why? Thank you!
Absolutely! I explain everything in the video on why I would choose this over others.
I'm going to buy the engwe s6 soon and I hope I am doing the right thing! Agree?
If you absolutely need a seat and don’t live in a country where it rains often then S6 is the next best option (keep in mind that the handlebars on the S6 are non adjustable. If you are tall, avoid it and get the M4 Pro as it’s adjustable in height.
But if you don’t need a seat and the weather is unpredictable, 100% the M3.
@@Movelectrics Dastrad M4 Pro....any good?
M4 Pro has the benefit of a seat and adjustable handlebars.
But if you don’t need a seat, M3 all the way.
Hi mate just opened my m4 pro the charger has a 2 pin plug can i use my plug from electric razor 1amp plug for charging any help would be great koogo still not email me from 2 days ago.
Good question but absolutely do not use another charger. Use the one supplied. Buy a 2 pin adapter.
Yes but can I use the 3pin plug /2pinadaptor it's has a 1 amp fuse to charge scooter
My charger has 2pin can I use a travel adapter plug 2 pin to 3pin 1 amp fuse or do I need a different fuse I'm in UK
Just to let you know ife u writing is had to understand I'm sorry I've had a head injury bleed on my brain
I understand. The 2 pin adapters i use have 13Amp fuses in them. Travel adapters are not suitable. I got my adapters from Amazon. Don’t buy cheap.
Hello i have a kugoo klirin g1 and if i buy a m3 nfc card will the nfc catd work in my scooter?
2 different scooters so not possible. Each NFC card is for 1 scooter only.
@@Movelectrics then where can i find a card for kirin g1?
@@S2GMuMiaG each NFC card is unique to the scooter. Contact the place where you bought it from.
You get 2 with the M3 or you can simply disable this functionality on the app.
Always good to keep the spare in a safe place.
@@Movelectrics what app?
@@S2GMuMiaG apps.apple.com/ie/app/green-drive/id1087299214
Of course you can only gain access to the scooter via the app when it’s unlocked by NFC.
The after you can disable the NFC through the app
Do you Think it’s better than the m4 pro 18ah and is the suspension better
Yes absolutely
Thanks for the quick reply I’m looking to get this or the m4 pro they cost the same where I live but I think I’m going for the m3 do you have any other better options in this price range
@@OscarRiegelsKnudsen avoid M4 Pro. If you watched my M4 Pro review you will know the many problems I had. Ain’t many scooters within this price range.
The only problem I have is there is no real way to install a seat on it. (I know this kind of scooter really isn’t meant to have a seat but it would’ve been nice)
I’m looking for a e-scooter that is ip67 rated, has an optional seat and has a max speed of like 40+km/h
Well I’ve had a good few seated scooters but they are only ideal for long trips in my opinion from a comfort level.
This scooter basically has everything you want at an amazing price point, so I guess the question is, do you 100% need a seat?
I can’t think of any other scooter that has this spec at this price point. There is the Ninebot Max that has a good IP rating, an optional seat BUT speed is restricted.
@@Movelectrics I don’t really need a seat, it’s just a nice bonus.
I live in Sweden so the high ip rating is almost a 100% requirement due to it raining or snowing sideways all year round 🥲 and if I really look into it the speed is more of a wish. The roadlaws here restrict electric bikes to 20km/h but no one really checks so it would bee nice to not bee restricted and bee able to go faster if a want. I’m 24 so I know the consequences of not following the rules so it is at my own risk😅.
Thanks for the quick reply ❤️
Hello , I got my kugoo m3 for 2 days and my tag doesn’t work anymore. Can someone help me ?
Did you disable NFC within the app? App is called ‘Green Drive’
Also did you try the other spare NFC key?
@@Movelectrics thanks for your reply. I disabled NFC with the app and turned on the zero start option but it didn’t worked. It’s still locked
Hello i now started my scooter with another app and connected it with green drive and disabled the nfc function
Thank you so much !!
Hello sir, can you make another video. Like after 2 months riding review, Really love the video, you did the best review video about this scooter on YT
Thank you for the support! It’s a quite a sturdy scooter and have had no issues at all.
@@Movelectrics Im just waiting for mine now hope it come next week.
Can i get 25 km range in gear 3?I weigh 65kg
I’d say you would just about get that. Remember that hills/temperature and start/stop also effect the battery.
It’s still at a great price

Do u have it?If yes i would like to know how is it holding.
I had to make more space at home so the M3 had to go. Was doing absolutely fine. I honestly regret doing that. Loved it, really did.
What app is this? I never managed to pair my M3 with any Kugoo app on iOS, only with the Green Drive app. Gives me a lot less options, though.
‘Green Drive’ app
strange because all i can do in the app is turn on/off the light, change speed mode and change metrics from mi to km.
@@blickwechsel scroll upwards and you’ll see more options
@movelectrics oh my 🤦🏻♀️ thank you
Does it deliver to England?
Don’t think so. Only EU countries but send them an email to double check.
Hey I'm buying my first e-scooter after selling my car and will be using it to commute to work but also want something fun to drive. Would still scooter do the job or would you recommend any other scooter in the €600 price range. Thanks
What range will you be travelling?
10km round trip
The M3 is a good scooter for small trips like this and easy to manoeuvre.
@@Movelectrics I actually purchased it last night from hearing your reviews about this scooter and others. I also used your code which was an added bonus that's again. Really liking the channel fair play 👍
@@colmpurcell6668 thank you for the support! Feel free to ask any questions. When you get the scooter, pump the front wheel to 45psi.
What should i do if i lost my keys ?
You get 2 keys so keep a spare at home. If you are really worried about losing both keys, log into the Green Drive app while the scooter is of course unlocked and DISABLE NFC option. Easy to do.
Does this scooter feel more powerfull that the kugo kirin m4 pro?
With torque you can feel the difference. Definitely better.
Thank you for answering
One more question
Queres do i find drum brakes for this scooter?
I cant find it
@@thebeaver5835 what do you mean? Drum brake is located at the front wheel.
I was asking where do i find brakes for this e scooter
I can find all parts but not the brakes
Because usually they have disc brakes and its easier to find them for sale then drum brakes
@@thebeaver5835 drum brakes are internal shoes and require little to no maintenance. Also very easy to adjust as time goes on.
They should last a very long time compared to pads. Nothing to worry about.
Can the scooter drive like 50km/h? because at the end you can see that the speed value is at 50km/h.
Nice Vid
You can actually set it higher but 45km/h is more than what you need.
What would happen if you used your NFC Card to lock it then lose it? Would the scooter be permanently locked?
NFC key is only used to unlock the scooter. The minute the scooter is turned off, it locks again.
But if you are afraid of losing the 2 keys, you can disable the NFC option through the app (called Green Drive)
I see, thank you. Would there still be any way to unlock the M3 via the mobile app even if it comes to the worst case scenario and you lose your cards?
@menatix9465 not possible. You cannot access the scooter via the app if its locked.
Like I said, if you are worried about losing the keys, simply disable the NFC function.
@@Movelectrics Appreciate it a lot, your video has influenced my choice on this :)
You can unlock scooter without nfc with app!
How to unlock the cruise control mode?
Did you try the app? Green Drive is the name. Definitely be careful with cruise control on. I think it’s dangerous going at higher speeds.
@@Movelectrics yes, but it doesen't work.
@Giovanni-yp1ud maybe it’s no longer active due to safety like some scooters. I never use it. Even on other KuKirin models like the M4 Pro, it cannot be activated.
Hey man, gonna pull the plug on the M3 today, where is the best place to buy it online, geekbuyimg or Kugoo? And is there no suspension whatsoever on the rear? Thats a bit odd, seeing as it has front forks ?!? 🤔
Trust me, even without suspension on the rear, it’s still very comfortable. This was sent to me from KUGOO so feel free tinhas my link and discount code below 👊🏼

Nice on thanks man, compared to the m4 pro, can you say, feel it has no rear shock, sorry to harp on about it, I'm coming from riding motorbikes where I just upgraded my rear shock cost me 800 quid
@@Movelectricslast question does it jar much compared to other scooters in the price range ? Thanks man, sorry for all the questions Paul
@@paulbolger6035 it’s more comfortable than the M4 Pro. Suspension on my previous M4 Pro was terrible. M3 is much better designed.
@@paulbolger6035 like I mention, out off entry level scooters I have tested, this M3 has the best spec and value for money. The design was done extremely well.
The only problem i have with this scooter is that there is no suspension for rear tire. + You can't put off the back light to save battery. Every other thing is perfect.
Trust me, I thought the same UNTIL I rode it. It is surprisingly smooth and comfortable. From suspension and 10inch tyres is the perfect combination. The rear lights are LEDs and use very little power so I wouldn’t be concerned at all.
Thanks for your reply
Is there any way to reach 40 km/h? I’m 72 kg but for me, 36-37 km/h is the maximum. Even if I go down for a hill, it’s not more than 37 km/h. In the application there is no speed limit turned on so I don’t know what the problem is.
I got 38km/h which is more than acceptable. Consider wind/temperature/hills/tyre pressure (50psi)
I think the problem is the front brake. If I turn the wheel, it’s not spinning. It’s too tight. Do you maybe now how to make it softer?
@@dharmabeatz simply loosen the small nut a small bit located on the front wheel where the brake line is.
@@Movelectricsthank you! Now the front wheel is spinning, but the maximum speed is still 36-37, even if I go down on a downhill. It looks like there is a speed limit, but Green Drive apps say it’s 50 km/h so I have no idea what’s wrong. The other M3 with a person who is like 82 kg, 39-40 km/h, mine is 36-37 with the same weather and road conditions and i’m only 72 kg.
@@dharmabeatz 37km/h is more than acceptable. Most scooters never go top speed, always around 3-4kms slower.
Wind and hills also play a big part and of course the battery to be fully charged.
What is the speed raised off the ground?
Don’t set the app to 50km/h, set it to the stock 40km/h
Shame the link wont deliver to the UK.....
Yes unfortunately EU only. I did see an M3 listed in the UK at one point but was like £800 compared to the link below
