Performance
Max Speed– 16 mph: This is not a very high speed for people that are looking for an adrenaline pumping exciting, ride but it is the perfect speed for people that are simply looking to cruise and relax. Hence the name Maverix “Cruiser”.
Range– 9 miles: For a cruiser skateboard you would expect more miles out of it like the Yuneec E-Go Cruiser. The E-Go Cruiser does cost more than the Maverix but it has double the riding range (18 miles) . The Maverix is only $600 so the short range is a fair trade off. Keep in mind that if you are a light weight rider and do not continuously ride at max speed you should be able to extend the range of this board to 10 or 11 miles.
Power– 600 watts: This powerful motor is what allows for the Maverix Cruiser to reach 16 mph with great efficiency. For your safety, the Maverix Cruiser comes with a leash that clips on to you and kills the motor if you fall off the board. This feature will save you the trouble of having to chase an out of control high speed electric skateboard.
