Segway, recently named No. 1 in global electric kick-scooter (eKickScooter) sales with more than 13 million sold worldwide, today announces pre-orders are open on the all-new E3 electric scooter through exclusive retail partner, Best Buy Canada. Customers can reserve the latest in the brand’s popular entry-level E-Series for only $499.99 CAD ($699.99 MSRP) at BestBuy.ca or more than 90 retail locations across Canada now through the official release date of July 18 when it will be in-stock and full price. The E3 will also be available later this summer via Segway’s official Canadian webstore at store-ca.segway.com.
“We’re redefining entry level electric scooters with the new E3,” said Tom Hebert, VP of sales at Segway. “Not only are you getting our most portable, lightweight transportation solution that makes commuting and storage easy for everyone, you’re getting fantastic features and performance coupled with legendary Segway quality at an incredible price. We’re excited to be able to make the E3 available nationwide in Canada and through a trusted retail partner like Best Buy.”
The E3 has been redesigned for a more compact folded footprint and weighs in at only 16.4 kilograms thanks to an all-new aerospace-grade magnesium frame optimized for the perfect balance of weight and durability. This makes it the perfect last-mile companion, especially if the commute involves carrying it onto public transportation, up stairs or on an elevator. And even at an outstanding entry-level price, it offers an incredibly smooth ride with elastomer suspension, front and rear.
Sporting an 800-Watt motor, it’s capable of a 25 km/h max speed and can go up to 45 kilometers on a single charge thanks to SegRange™ range optimization. It’s also packed with premium Segway technology to enhance safety and convenience like Apple Find My capability, SegRide stability enhancement and traction control. A 4-Watt headlight, turn signals and 256 RGB ambient lighting also ensure riders can see and be seen in low-light conditions.
It’s all wrapped together by a clean, streamlined silhouette, accented by minimalist lines and signature red details, reflecting a harmonious balance between form and function. The E3 represents a fresh take on entry-level alternative transportation that makes every ride easy. With its beginner-friendly approachability and lightweight frame, it’s an excellent option for both first-timers looking for an affordable ride as well as seasoned commuters looking for the most portable scooter from a trusted brand.
