Our review

Comparative analysis · updated October 2, 2026

The 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.

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.
