The Max G2 is Segway’s mid-tier premium commuter, sitting between the value F65 ($899, 40 mi range, no suspension) and the entry E2 Plus ($280). The differentiator is full dual suspension at $899, plus Apple Find My — your scooter shows up in your iPhone’s Find My network as anti-theft tracking.
Segway now has three scooters in this catalog: the budget E2 Plus, the long-range F65, and this Max G2. The Max G2 is the best ride quality of the three thanks to its hydraulic front suspension. Pick it over the F65 if your roads are rough; pick the F65 if you need maximum range.
