The NIU KQi3 Pro, which scored a perfect score and an Editor’s Choice award in our review, is among the best e-scooters we’ve tested recently – and that’s in the face of tough rivals from popular brands like Segway and GoTrax. It delivers an impressive performance, boasts a 20% hill grade for climbing steeper hills, and has a top speed of 20mph. However, the best part about this electric scooter is its excellent shock absorption – something that most other models, even the premium ones, are, at best, mediocre in. It’s all thanks to those 2.5-inch-thick tires.
