Apollo Go Stellar

What the Apollo Go Stellar is built for

The Apollo Go Stellar is an electric kick scooter for short trips and the last mile of a commute.

It has a 1,300 W (2 kW peak) motor and a top speed of 32 mph (51 km/h).

It carries a 648 Wh battery and a stated range of up to 32 miles (51 km) on a charge.

The Apollo Go Stellar weighs 55 lb (24.9 kg), carries up to 265 lb (120 kg) including the rider, has full suspension and is rated IP66 against water.

In the United States the Apollo Go Stellar sells for $1,099, above the median of $530 across 163 electric scooters with a US price, among the premium models. That is $2 per watt-hour of battery.

Where the Apollo Go Stellar may be ridden

Most European countries cap electric scooters at 20 to 25 km/h on public roads; the Apollo Go Stellar's top speed of 32 mph (51 km/h) is above that, so it may be ridden at full speed only on private land there. In the United Kingdom privately owned e-scooters may not yet be ridden on public roads, and Germany requires a type-approved model with an insurance plate.

Apollo Go Stellar safety certification

The brand states that the Apollo Go Stellar is certified to EN 17128 and UL 2271.

EN 17128 is the European standard for personal light electric vehicles such as electric scooters.

UL 2271 is the US safety standard for the battery pack of a light electric vehicle.

New York City allows only e-scooters certified to UL 2272 to be sold or rented there.
