I Tried A $4,000 Ultra Luxury Electric Scooter: The Apollo Pro

The Apollo Pro is my second scooter and I love it. I have to ride in traffic often and it's super easy to seamlessly roll with the traffic. It also handles great in pedestrian areas as you can go slower then walking speed if you need. And you give everyone a light show whenever your out riding.

Great review!

I’ve owned the Apollo 2022 ‘CITY’ pro the past 12 months and LOVE it! I plan to save up for this model BUT….have you seen Eloi’s 2024 ‘EXPLORE’…. WOW ! Apollo are the APPLE of the electric scooter world

Perfect video man. Thanks. I want it but just price needs to come down.

I see this as an entirely new class of scooter. It's primary purpose seems to be to serve as a secondary vehicle for those that don't want the cost of a second car. The IPX66 waterproofing and waterproof drum brakes mean that this is the first scooter capable of running 365 days a year (in warm climates.) With other scooters you need to find alternate forms of transport on rainy days, but not with the Apollo Pro. They really need to market it as such since that's really the target audience. It won't compete in the hyper scooter arena since its performance characteristics are more like the performance scooters, and it won't compete in the performance scooter arena because of its price. It stands alone as a vehicle grade scooter though, and it really shines there.

Awesome video! I noticed a potential design flaw at 6:20, though. When you folded the stem down onto the standing platform with the phone still attached to it, the impact seemed strong enough that it could have potentially shattered your phone screen.

Another thing Apollo are doing differently to their competitors is the low maintenance features, such as self healing tyres / tires (I’m Aussie we spell it differently) drum brakes and best regen brake technology with 10% power being returned to the best in class Samsung battery cells. And who else other than this company go through 6 prototypes and extensive testing before releasing to the market? This PRO model is designed and built to last YEARS, if I were living close to home and in an apartment in the city I wouldn’t think twice about purchasing. Eloi, Chris, Mac and the entire Apollo team are leading the way in design, build quality and ground breaking innovative tech, eating their opposition for breakfast… “ Nom, nom, nom”

Top notch video Mike.

long pressing on the SPORT mode button inside settings will unlock LUDO mode ;)

click the power button 3 times while its on and do a speed test in Ludo mode. Can hit like 70km/h on it

I have this scooter. It's pretty decent, but I get the stem wobble at higher speeds.

I paid about $3k usd for it by being a indiegogo supporter and im pretty happy with the price compared to competitors I totally get why people think $4k is way too much and I agree, but I still went with it because most similar specs scooters are more expensive where I live cant wait tor receive it :)

Please take it easy. I want to have Mike O’Brien for long. 😮😂. Great job

I think it would be cool if you did a e scooter called the ls7+. It goes a bit faster is a bit more bulky and does much better suspension. Surprisingly even though it’s higher performance it still costs less at around 2700$ around now. Because this scooter is better at going high speeds you won’t feel as much shaking as this scooter. The video would be cool if you compared scooters that chose high performance over nice features for computing like that speaker that your thing had. I might compare the gt2 or maby this scooter, that choice does not matter to much because they are similar types of scooters. Any way hope you liked my suggestion, also which scooter do you like more gt2 or this one? Thanks for the video.

Most of the extra features are either unnecessary or otherwise furnished aftermarket. Monthly fee for a GPS device you can ad on yourself for no fees. At exactly half the price of this scooter the Vsett 10XR comes with dual 1400W motors and a 50 V 28 amp battery, specs that leave this double priced scooter in the dust.

Just got mine. Can't believe you have to stuff all of that wire from stem into the bottom of the stem assembly.

I have a question. If I put my phone on pocket, the speaker still working? Because I don’t need to look at screen when I am riding

This is cool I want to buy one

In 12 months, this scooter will be 2500 dollars

Dude good video I had a electric bike motorcycle and scooter I just stuck between scooter and bike.
