Our review
Comparative analysis · updated October 2, 2026The same 1,000 W and 37.3 miles as the X Ultra, for $600 more. The extra buys the newer HyperIntuition AI and a 65 W wall charger. Worth it only if you want the very latest platform; otherwise the X Ultra is the smarter buy.

User reviews
Frequently asked questions
Is 37.3 miles of range realistic?
It is the sum of two 18.6-mile batteries under favorable conditions. With sustained, strong assist, expect between a third and half less.
Should I choose the S series over the classic range?
Not blindly. The S series adds the HyperIntuition AI and a wall charger, not more range: the X Ultra also ships with two 18.6-mile batteries.
It costs $600 more (prices checked Oct 1, 2026) and is too recent for much owner feedback, so the X Ultra remains our recommendation.
