How much should I spend on a commuter electric scooter?

Among these candidates, well-reviewed commuter models cluster between roughly $200 and $1,000. Budget picks around $200 (such as entry Gotrax models) cover short urban hops, while $800-$1,000 models from Segway add dual suspension and longer range. Higher price generally buys range, suspension, and braking quality rather than just top speed.
