Segway-Ninebot, the global leader in the micromobility transportation solutions and robotic service industries has revealed its brand-new ZT series of electric scooters in Australia at their flagship store in the heart of Parramatta. This all-new series of urban and off-road eKickScooters, the brand’s most versatile and powerful model yet.
The Segway ZT3 Pro combines cutting-edge smart technology with outstanding all-terrain performance and signature Segway style and is one of their higher-end products as designated by ‘Segway’ only nomenclature. Designed for both city explorations and off-road adventures, the ZT3 effortlessly overcomes any obstacles between riders and their destination, instilling a sense of confidence.
Gino Casha, Head of Segway-Ninebot Australia, shared his enthusiasm for the ZT3 Pro highlighting, “The ZT3 Pro represents a significant step forward in our commitment to innovation and user experience. We believe this scooter will not only meet the demands of urban commuters but also cater to adventure enthusiasts looking for an eKickScooter that excels in all-terrains.”
The ZT3 Pro features a brand-new design concept built around a robust full-suspension frame. A telescopic front fork and rear swingarm coil-suspension smooth out rough terrain. Its capability is further bolstered by 152mm of ground clearance and 11-inch all-terrain tubeless tyres.
Powered by a 1600-watt high-torque brushless motor with the batteries mounted in the scooter’s floor, the ZT3 Pro is capable of speeds up to 25km per hour and a climbing slope of 25 percent. Thanks to Segway’s RideyLong™ range optimization technology, it achieves up to an impressive 70km on a single charge in Eco Mode and 50km in Sport Mode.
With safety and stability as key considerations in the design of the ZT3 Pro, Segway’s new patented Segride™ technology offers an innovative approach to scooter geometry and ergonomics, ensuring a comfortable and safe ride even at higher speeds. The Segride™ Stability Enhancement System, working together with the Traction Control System offers enhanced control and grip, reducing handlebar shake and wheel slip to ensure a secure ride even on slippery surfaces.
The 3-inch hexagonal LCD display provides real-time status updates including speed, charge, mode and more, while remaining clearly visible even in direct sunlight. And the ZT3 Pro’s full lighting system illuminates the rider’s way when the sun sets with a 4-watt front light, front and rear indicators and a signature “X” symbol daytime running light.
The ZT3 Pro seamlessly blends refinement and ruggedness, offering all-terrain performance alongside advanced smart features, like an AirLock System for autonomous locking and unlocking when paired with the Segway-Ninebot app, a first in the eKickScooter industry. The app is currently only available for iOS currently, but Android should be coming later this year.
BMS 2.0—an upgraded battery management system—offers three new layers of protection, and the Flash Charge Technology allows for a full charge in only four hours. One of the key features of the BMS 2.0 is that customers receive notifications if the battery overheats, automatically shutting down the scooter to ensure rider safety.
Additionally, integration with Apple’s Find My simplifies tracking, enabling riders to locate their Segway eKickScooter effortlessly at any time. In the unfortunate event of theft, this feature becomes invaluable, allowing users to quickly pinpoint the scooter’s location and report it to authorities, increasing the chances of recovery. Riders can feel more secure knowing they have a reliable tool at their disposal to help protect their investment.
The ZT3 Pro has undergone extensive quality tests, including 5,000km of human piloted road tests, over 180 quality checks and a 700-kilogram static pressure limitation test, ensuring the integrity of its high-strength steel-tube frame. It has an IPX5 waterproof body and is compatible with various accessories (to be sold separately) to meet the diverse needs of riders.
