Apollo review

The Apollo Dash is the entry model at $699, which sits below the €2,299 typical across the site. That price buys the folding frame, a 12 months warranty and access to the spare parts shop. Larger boards with bigger batteries sit above that entry point, so the headline figure is a floor rather than a full range.

Claimed range across the models runs 40 to 80 km, and the boards with the longest figure are the ones at the top of 540 to 1,404 Wh. Range here is a manufacturer claim rather than a measured figure, so treat it as a headline. Heavier riders and loads near the top of 100 to 150 kg will see less of it in practice.

Apollo states it sells into US, CA and AU, which does not include the UK or the EU. The line is built as kick scooter models, and European riders should check local rules and any insurance requirement before ordering from outside the region. A brand built around the US, Canadian and Australian market is a poor fit for a European commute.

The Apollo Go carries the UL battery safety certification, which covers the pack rather than the whole vehicle. That certification sits with the suspension and tubeless tires on the Go, while braking across the range is given as drum, disc and regen. Buyers who care about certified cells should check which models carry the standard rather than assume the whole range does.

Top speed across the models runs 32 to 71 km/h, from a slow city board to a fast long-distance one. Motor output ranges from 600 to 3,120 W nominal, so the quickest models are also the most powerful and pull more load. The 19.5 kg entry Dash sits at the slow end of the range and is built for short hops.

There is a spare parts shop, which matters most on the boards with the highest loads of 100 to 150 kg and the biggest batteries. Support runs on email and help centre, so a rider who expects to phone a service line may prefer a brand with more channels. The company has been trading since 2018.

Maximum load across the range runs 100 to 150 kg, and the figure differs by model, so check the specification for the board you plan to buy. Riders carrying a passenger or heavy cargo should look at the upper end of that figure. The entry Dash is the lightest at 19.5 kg.

Folding is available on the range, which suits last-mile legs and carriage on trains, and suspension is in the mix for rough kerbs. The Apollo Go pairs that with tubeless tires and an IP66 rating for wet weather. Weigh the entry Dash at 19.5 kg against a heavier board before planning a long walk from the platform.

The alternatives publish their own model lists: iSinwheel shows GT2 1200W, GT1 2026 800W, S10MAX 1000W, S9PRO 500W, while AOVO Official shows AOVO T1 Pro, AOVO X9 Promax, AOVO X11, AOVO G2. Apollo's own reference set is Apollo Dash, Apollo Go, Apollo City 2.0, Apollo Phantom 2.0. More names means more sizing options, but each brand states its own specifications separately, so check the individual model page.

Cover runs to 12 months, which is the term to check before extending cover or adding a damage plan. Apollo also runs a spare parts shop, so consumables can be ordered directly rather than through a dealer. Anyone buying far from CA may want to confirm shipping and return arrangements at the point of order.
