The Segway booth at CES was full of surprises!
At the 2024 CES conference hosted in Las Vegas, Segway announced the Segway Superscooter ST1 (see our full written review here), a new GoKart, and two new e-bikes! Segway's R&D team has been hard at work recently. Let's go through the new PEVs.
Segway GoKart Pro2
I had the chance to whip the GoKart Pro2 around Segway's test track, and BOY was it a lot of fun. Drifting in this thing is incredible, and the acceleration is amazing. While it's not super practical for city roads, if you have a lot of open pavement where you can ride and you're an adrenaline junkie, this is a no-brainer purchase.
Specs:
- Speed: 26.7 mph
- Range: 15.5 miles
- Motors: 2400W x 2 (Peak Power)
- Weight: 106 lbs
Features:
- Steering wheel doubles as gaming controller
- Rear wheels double as self-balancing scooter
- Eco, Sport, Race driving modes
- Gen-2 Bluetooth Speaker with Engine Programmed Sounds

Segway Xyber E-bike
The Xyber was an absolute joy to ride. I have no idea why they included pedals, as it weighs so much that it's impossible to get moving without using the throttle anyway. Most of the time while riding I was looking for a secure place to put my feet that wasn't the pedals. I can see this being a serious contender to the Talaria / Surron models, and I'm looking forward to the pricing details.
Specs:
- Torque: 175 Nm
- Battery: 1440Wh * 2
- Suspension: 120mm (front + rear)
- Acceleration: 0-20mph in 2.5s

Segway Xafari E-bike
The Xafari looks like a heavy-duty e-bike, and rides like one too. It is extremely durable, has solid hill-climbing power and acceleration, and has most of the standard features you would expect on an e-bike in its class. Nothing in particular stood out from my riding experience, and I'm looking forward to finding out it's starting price.
Specs:
- Battery: 913 Wh
- Motor: 750W
- Torque: 80 Nm
- Tires: 26" x 3"
- Suspension: 80mm (front), 70mm (rear)
