Given the impressive reputation of NIU’s single-motor electric scooters, anticipation ran high when news broke about the introduction of a new model. My mind quickly conjured up an idea for a dual-motor high-performance scooter that would undoubtedly raise the bar in terms of power and capability. As a substitute, they’ve taken a more logical direction by significantly enhancing their KQi3 series of scooters, encompassing both the Professional and Max models.
NIU pays homage to its KQi300P (“Professional”) and KQi300X (“Max”?) all-terrain scooters by building upon the success of its premium commuter models, incorporating impressive safety and efficiency enhancements at a comparable price point. Niu indicates that the 300-line code is now swapping the contrasting KQi3 fashion patterns. What a limited assessment provides is merely a glimpse into the overall picture.
While these scooters are well-suited as a first-time option, they also cater to the needs of intermediate and experienced riders. For several years, I’ve been riding almost daily, and my enthusiasm for these scooters remains unwaveringly strong as I continue to hit the roads virtually every day.
For novice scooter enthusiasts, it’s common to reach a point relatively quickly where they crave more speed and acceleration; however, I doubt that this experience will be necessary for newcomers to the KQi300P and KQi300X.
