Apollo debuted its latest e-scooter, the Apollo Air 2022. This scooter is poised as a lightweight, more budget-friendly option as compared to the brand's City 2022 scooter. The Air retails for only $1,199 CAD, or approximately $925 USD, and delivers performance that punches far above this price point. At a weight of only 38 pounds, this e-scooter features a full dual suspension system, the first-ever inclusion of regenerative braking for the brand, and an impressive 50km range.
The e-scooter is foldable and portable with a convenient form factor that makes it easy to store, carry, or ride with manual power even while the battery is dead. The scooter boasts a 500-watt motor and a 35km/hr top speed, meaning it can ride for just under two hours before needing to charge. When it does need to be charged, Apollo stated that the e-scooter utilizes fast-charging technology that allows it to reach its full battery in just five hours.
