SWAGTRON GlideX Pro

What the SWAGTRON GlideX Pro is built for

The SWAGTRON GlideX Pro is an electric kick scooter for short trips and the last mile of a commute.

It has a 350 W peak motor and a top speed of 20 mph (32 km/h).

It carries a 360 Wh removable battery and a stated range of up to 28 miles (45 km) on a charge.

The SWAGTRON GlideX Pro weighs 33 lb (15 kg), carries up to 220 lb (100 kg) including the rider and is rated IPX4 against water.

In the United States the SWAGTRON GlideX Pro sells for $430, below the median of $530 across 163 electric scooters with a US price, among the more affordable models. That is $1 per watt-hour of battery.

Where the SWAGTRON GlideX Pro may be ridden

Most European countries cap electric scooters at 20 to 25 km/h on public roads; the SWAGTRON GlideX Pro's top speed of 20 mph (32 km/h) is above that, so it may be ridden at full speed only on private land there. In the United Kingdom privately owned e-scooters may not yet be ridden on public roads, and Germany requires a type-approved model with an insurance plate.

SWAGTRON GlideX Pro safety certification

The brand states that the SWAGTRON GlideX Pro is certified to UL 2272.

UL 2272 is the US safety standard for the electrical system of personal e-mobility devices such as electric scooters.

New York City allows only e-scooters certified to UL 2272 to be sold or rented there.
