Hover-1 Boss R800 – Pricey Commuter

by Nathan Schaumann

Hover-1’s H-1 Boss R800 (currently $899) is a higher-end scooter compared to Hover-1’s usual offerings, with better performance and finishes than other entry-level models. The R800 has an 800W motor reaching 24 mph, and offers full suspension and a low deck for commuting. While it is a little pricey for it’s small size, we think it makes up for it in style and comfort.

Things We Love

  1. Quick and Smooth Throttle Response: The R800 offers a fast yet smooth throttle, making it excellent for stop-and-go commuting.
  2. Full Suspension for Rough Terrain: The full suspension system ensures a smooth ride over bumpy roads and potholes, enhancing comfort and handling for daily commutes.

Room for Improvement

  • Less Portable Due to Design: Compared to other entry-level models like the Hover 1 Journey Max, this is a pretty heavy scooter. It’s not going to be easy to just lift up long flights of stairs or toss in the back of a car.
