'Apollo Scooters,' the United States-based electric scooter manufacturer, has launched the 'Apollo City 2022' and the 'Apollo City Pro 2022.' The Apollo City 2022 has a single, 500W motor, while the pro version has two 500w motors to power its wheels. Due to this discrepancy, the regular version supports up to 220 pounds at a top speed of 27mph, and the pro version supports up to 265 pounds at a top speed of 32mph.
The battery on the regular model lasts for 25 miles, or approximately one hour at full speed, while the battery on the pro achieves a range of 38 miles per charge. However, the Apollo City 2022 is designed for traveling around busy city streets, meaning it is unlikely that riders will travel consistently at the top speed. The Apollo City 2022 retails for $1,499 USD, and the Apollo City Pro 2022 has an MSRP of $1,799 USD. Both models are available directly from Apollo Scooters' online store.
