KUKIRIN G2 series compared: G2, G2 Max, G2 Ultra and G2 Master

Four scooters share the KUKIRIN G2 name. Two have one motor, two have two. Here is how fast each one goes, how far it rides, where it sits on price and who it suits.

Published Oct 11, 20268 min read

The short answer

The KUKIRIN G2 family runs from 27 to 37 mph and from 34 to 43 miles of range, and every model sits under $1,000. The G2 is the light single motor commuter: 800 W, 27 mph, up to 34 miles and 57 lb, in the $500 to $750 band. The G2 Max, in the same band, adds a seat, knobby tires and up to 43 miles at 34 mph. The dual motor G2 Ultra (31 mph in Turbo, 34 miles) and G2 Master (37 mph, 43 miles) sit in the $750 to $1,000 band and climb the steepest hills.

  • Price bands: G2 and G2 Max $500 to $750, G2 Ultra and G2 Master $750 to $1,000.
  • Top speed and range: G2 27 mph / 34 mi, G2 Max 34 mph / 43 mi, G2 Ultra 31 mph / 34 mi, G2 Master 37 mph / 43 mi.
  • The G2 Ultra and G2 Master have a motor in each wheel and list 26° and 28° climbing.
  • Only the G2 Max comes with a seat in the box. The other three offer a seat as an option.

Four scooters, one G2 name

KUKIRIN uses the G2 name for four electric scooters that share a 10-inch frame, springs at both ends, front and rear disc brakes, three speed gears, a folding stem and an IP54 water rating. All four carry riders up to 264 or 265 lb, and each offers 12 and 24 month warranty options on the product page.

We already compare the G2 and G2 Max with the faster G4 in KUKIRIN G2 vs G4 vs G2 Max. This guide stays inside the G2 family and gives the two dual motor models the same close look. See the whole lineup on the KUKIRIN brand page.

KUKIRIN G2 price, speed and range at a glance

  • G2: the $500 to $750 band. 27 mph top speed, up to 34 miles at medium speed.
  • G2 Max: the $500 to $750 band. 34 mph, up to 43 miles.

Maker figures, checked September 2026. Real range and speed depend on rider weight, terrain, temperature and riding mode.

Range figures come from gentle testing. Real range drops with rider weight, cold weather, hills and the top gear, as our guide to real electric scooter range explains.

Motors, batteries and speed gears

  • G2: one 800 W motor and a 48V 15Ah battery (about 720 Wh). Gears top out at 15, 21 and 27 mph.
  • G2 Max: one 1,000 W motor and a 48V 20.8Ah battery (about 998 Wh). Gears top out at 9, 18 and 34 mph.
  • G2 Ultra: two 800 W motors and a 48V 18Ah battery (about 864 Wh). Gears top out at 16, 22 and 28 mph, and Turbo lifts the top gear to 31 mph.
  • G2 Master: two 1,000 W motors and a 52V 20.8Ah battery (1,081 Wh). Gears top out at 15, 24 and 37 mph.

The G2 Master is the strongest G2 by every measure: the most motor power, the only 52V battery and the highest top speed. The G2 Max is the long range single motor pick, because its battery is bigger than the G2 Ultra’s. The G2 Max also starts slowest in first gear, at 9 mph, which helps a new rider.

Top gear on the G2 Max and G2 Master is above 30 mph. Wear a helmet and gloves, learn in first gear, and check your state and city rules for where a scooter this fast may ride. Our safety gear guide covers what to wear.

Hills: where two motors pay off

KUKIRIN lists 20° climbing for the G2, 22° for the G2 Max, 26° for the G2 Ultra and 28° for the G2 Master. On the two dual motor models both wheels drive, which keeps grip and pull steady on hills, gravel and grass.

If your route has a long, steep street, the G2 Ultra or G2 Master is the safer choice. If it is mostly flat, a single motor saves weight and keeps the price in the lower band. Our guide to single vs dual motor electric scooters explains the trade off in more depth.

Tires, suspension and terrain

  • G2: 10-inch tubeless air tires and springs front and rear. Ground clearance is 6.9 in.
  • G2 Max: 10-inch pneumatic off-road tires with a knobby tread, four spring arms and 7.1 in of clearance.
  • G2 Ultra: 10-inch tubeless tires, cantilever springs at both ends and 6.3 in of clearance.
  • G2 Master: 10-inch tubeless off-road tires, four spring arms and 7.1 in of clearance. KUKIRIN says it handles sand, rocks, snow and grass.

Knobby tires grip better on dirt and gravel but feel noisier on clean pavement. Tubeless tires resist pinch flats and can take sealant. Our catalog lists the G2 and G2 Max as off-road capable and the G2 Ultra and G2 Master as street models. Keep every tire at the pressure printed on the sidewall with our tire pressure guide, and if you do pick up a puncture, our sibling guide on fixing a flat electric scooter tire walks through it.

Weight, deck and folded size

  • G2: 57 lb (26 kg). Deck 18.1 x 7.4 in. Folded 49.5 x 26 x 22 in.
  • G2 Ultra: 67 lb (30 kg). Deck 18.1 x 7.4 in, plus a rear foot pedal. Folded 49.5 x 25.6 x 21.5 in.
  • G2 Max: 68 lb (31 kg) with the seat. Deck 18.1 x 7.1 in. Folded 49.6 x 23.8 x 22.8 in.
  • G2 Master: 72 lb (33 kg). Deck 19.3 x 7.5 in. Folded 49.6 x 23.4 x 23.4 in.

The G2 is the only one under 60 lb, so it is the one to pick if you carry it up stairs or into a train station. The G2 Master has the roomiest deck, and it is 15 lb heavier than the G2. All four fold to roughly the same length, so any of them fits in most car trunks. For storage ideas, read electric scooter apartment storage.

Seat, screen, lock and charging

  • Seat: the G2 Max includes a removable seat, a stem with three height settings and six lights. The G2, G2 Ultra and G2 Master list a seat as an option on the product page. The KUKIRIN seat kit comes in one version for the G2 Max and G2 Master and one for the G4 and G2.
  • G2 Ultra: a 294 mm touch screen with built-in speakers, so you can connect your phone for music, navigation prompts and call alerts, plus an e-brake.
  • G2 Master: a key lock, eight lights, a tool kit in a carry case and a faster 58.8V 3A charger.
  • Charge times: 8 to 9 hours for the G2, 9 to 10 hours for the G2 Ultra, and 10 hours for the G2 Max and G2 Master.

Charge while you are home and awake, and follow our battery care guide. Thinking about riding seated most of the time? Our guide to electric scooters with a seat covers comfort and fit.

KUKIRIN also sells G2 bundles for two riders, at KUKIRIN’s bundle price: two G2s, two G2 Maxes, two G2 Masters, or a G2 Max with a G2 Master. Find them on the KUKIRIN brand page. KUKIRIN offers no bundle with the G2 Ultra.

  • Choose the G2 Ultra for two motors in a G2-sized frame, a big touch screen and speakers.
  • Choose the G2 Master for the most speed, the steepest climbing and a key lock.
