When to buy the GoTrax G4?

The GoTrax G4 has a slight advantage in speed and climbing, but that’s about it.

Most importantly though, it is quite cheaper, which is its biggest advantage here, so get it if you’re on a limited budget.

When to buy the Hiboy S2 Pro?

The Hiboy S2 Pro is a better scooter overall.

It has better features, better performance, and better quality.

It is, however, a bit more expensive, but generally I think the hundred dollars extra are well worth it.

I am Matt Trajkovski, the owner and main editor of EScooterNerds. I love electric scooters, and electric vehicles in general, and I’ve been involved in the industry for more than 10 years. I enjoy testing, reviewing, and research on various electric scooter models and brands, following our proprietary rigorous editorial and testing process developed here at EScooterNerds, looking for great value and performance, both through data and experience. All of the content published on this blog goes through a rigorous review and editorial process, and our product reviews not only include the hands-on experience of our own team members, but the experience of our audience members as well.
