Product Overview

Apollo Phantom caters to the speed enthusiast and the daily commuter looking for reliability blended with performance. If you're after a robust, high-powered ride that can take on city commutes and spirited weekend rides with equal gusto, this electric scooter could be your match.

Design and Build Quality:

Upon first glance, Apollo Phantom's presence commands attention. The build quality is solid, thanks to quality materials lending a durable feel. Its design balances aesthetics with practicality; its streamlined silhouette is complemented by sturdy construction. Some assembly was required when I got it, but putting it together was straightforward. However, certain components did give me a feeling of fragility during use.

Overall Performance:

In terms of performance, Apollo Phantom packs a punch. Acceleration is brisk, speed is exhilarating reaching 61 kph, and it makes hill climbs at a 45% incline look easy. Braking power from the disc brakes is dependable; however, during sudden stops there’s a noticeable jerkiness that requires getting used to. For those looking to cover distances, this scooter's range sits comfortably at 64 km depending on riding conditions.

The Motors & Battery:

With dual motors delivering a total of 2400w of power, this beast has no trouble darting off the line or scaling slopes. Yet I noticed an inconsistency in battery life—while sometimes it matched the advertised specs, other times I was left searching for an outlet sooner than expected.

The Wheels & Braking:

Pneumatic tires absorbed most road imperfections making daily rides relatively smooth. But safety concerns arose when encountering any brake-related issues. A few times the wheels locked up abruptly during intense braking which was jarring.

Overall Handling:

For urban environments or gentle trails, handling felt intuitive and responsive under my feet. Comfort levels were high due to dual spring suspension, although slight play in the handles suggested potential durability issues down the road.

Maintenance and Repair:

Maintenance-wise, I found myself becoming more hands-on than anticipated due to some durability concerns like loose bolts on the folding mechanism—issues that should have been caught by quality control. I didn't need to contact Apollo for repairs yet but noticed mixed feedback on customer support from others in the rider community.

Additional Features:

Key features like bright lights enhanced visibility for night rides while electric gauges provided clear readouts of speed and battery life—both seamlessly blending into my daily rides.

Rating:

Considering all factors from design to performance and maintenance, I’d rate Apollo Phantom 7/10. It scores high on raw power and style but loses points for the occasional durability issue.

Apollo Phantom Review

  • - 4.5
Well, my first instinct is to say that Apollo Phantom is fit for everyone. That’s because the Phantom has been built and designed according to the masses of feedback Apollo has received over the years they have been putting out scooters. As a result, everything this scooter offers is in response to a need vocalized by riders. It’s fully adaptable, thanks to its plush pneumatic tires and quite frankly absurd quad spring suspension. This means its ride quality is almost unparalleled. No matter where your riding appetite lies, the Phantom will be able to match you stride for stride.

The Apollo Phantom is heavy on features and high in value. It is an innovative scooter that performs incredibly well across the line. The result is an eye-wateringly powerful ride with a responsive build that is safe as houses. Its tried and true design has already been refined to the point where you’ll have to look long and hard for anything to nitpick about.

APOLLO PHANTOM ELECTRIC SCOOTER REVIEW

  • - 4.3
The Phantom gives you speed, range, comfort, build quality, performance on and off-road, braking on a dime, quality lighting, state-of-the-art digital display, best-in-class folding mechanism, and premium ergonomic parts. The only thing to be said is that it sounds too good to be true. When Apollo said they wanted to design a scooter void of cost-cutting antiques and usual scooter design flaws, they did just that. This innovative electric scooter comes with nary a compromise, save for the unimpressive kickstand. But for £1,520.86 ($2,099.00), you are getting the best value money can get you in the electric scooter space.
