GOTRAX Fusion

What the GOTRAX Fusion is built for

The GOTRAX Fusion is an electric kick scooter for short trips and the last mile of a commute.

It has a 300 W motor and a top speed of 18 mph (29 km/h).

It carries a 209 Wh battery and a stated range of up to 14 miles (23 km) on a charge.

The GOTRAX Fusion weighs 30 lb (13.6 kg) and carries up to 220 lb (100 kg) including the rider.

In the United States the GOTRAX Fusion sells for $349, below the median of $530 across 163 electric scooters with a US price, among the more affordable models. That is $2 per watt-hour of battery.

Where the GOTRAX Fusion may be ridden

Most European countries cap electric scooters at 20 to 25 km/h on public roads; the GOTRAX Fusion's top speed of 18 mph (29 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.

GOTRAX Fusion safety certification

The brand states that the GOTRAX Fusion is certified to UL 2272.

UL 2272 is the US safety standard for the electrical system of personal e-mobility devices such as electric scooters.

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