## What reviewers say

**Apollo City** — Only one whitelisted tester, Tom's Guide, published a usable hands-on Apollo City (2023) review. Reviewer Mike Prospero rode it around town for a few weeks and rates it fast, powerful and long-range, but flags a dim headlight and awkward right turn-signal placement, and notes cheaper Segway/NIU rivals match its range for about $600 less.
