Segway GT3 vs Segway GT3 Pro

Same family and the same premium suspension idea, but very different machines. The GT3 Pro costs $1,000 more and adds 19 mph of top speed, more than double the battery, dual motors and hydraulic brakes — along with 30 more pounds.

Quick verdict

Which one should you buy?

For commuting, the GT3 gives you most of the premium ride for $1,000 less. Pay for the Pro only if you'll really use its speed and range.

Choose the Segway GT3 if…

You ride in the city and 31 mph is plenty, you want the GT3's dual hydraulic suspension and IPX6 sealing for much less, and 87 lb is already as heavy as you want to go.

Check price

Choose the Segway GT3 Pro if…

You want 50 mph, 86 miles of claimed range, dual motors with 7,000 W peak, hydraulic disc brakes with ABS and adjustable front suspension, and you have ground-level storage for a 117 lb scooter.
