Gotrax is a Dallas-based electric scooter and e-bike brand that sells budget-to-mid-range personal electric vehicles across North America. This is the complete Gotrax product lineup for Canadian buyers. It is one of the top 10 most-searched e-mobility brands in Canada, but finding accurate, comparable specs across the full range is surprisingly difficult.
We maintain 33 Gotrax products in the Street Rides catalogue. We ranked every model by cost-per-kilometre, a metric that cuts through marketing claims and shows which product delivers the most range for your money. No other Canadian source publishes this analysis.

Editorial takeaway: The brand competes on breadth and affordability. The lineup covers every price tier from $400 to $2,199 CAD. But with 16 of 33 products in draft or limited availability, Canadian buyers need to verify stock before committing.
Cost-per-kilometre is calculated by dividing the Canadian retail price by the manufacturer's rated pedal-assisted range. A lower number means more range for your money. This is not a quality rating. It is a value metric that helps you compare models on equal terms.

| #12 | EBE5 | Multi-terrain | $1,550 | 65 km | $23.85 | 500W | 48V 10.4Ah (499Wh) | 26"x4.0" | 65 lb | Available |

TAKEAWAY: The S2 and EBE3 are the clear value leaders. The S2 gets you the lowest cost-per-km at $549 CAD. The EBE3 is the better all-around commuter with a 27.5 inch frame and 80 km range at $849 CAD. If you need a fat tire folder, the F3V2 ($1,399) beats the F5 ($1,799) on range and price despite costing $400 less.
Gotrax splits its e-bike lineup into five categories. Here is what each one actually means for Canadian riders.
These are the core of the Gotrax e-bike lineup. All four use 20 x 4.0 inch fat tires, 500W motors, and folding frames. Fat tires handle gravel shoulders, light snow, and rough urban roads better than standard tires. The folding frame fits in a car trunk or condo storage locker.
The main difference between models is battery size. The F1V2 and R2V2 use 10.4Ah batteries (499Wh, 64 km range). The F3V2 uses a 14.0Ah battery (672Wh, 98 km range). The F5 uses 13.6Ah (653Wh, 97 km range) but adds hydraulic brakes and premium materials.
These use standard 27.5 inch wheels and look like regular bicycles. They are lighter and faster-handling than fat tire models. The EBE3 is the value pick at $849 CAD with 80 km range. The CTI3 is the premium option at $1,799 CAD with 95 km range and a higher-capacity 14.0Ah battery.
The original CTI is an outlier. It uses a 36V system (not 48V) with only 350W and 25 km range. At $1,150 CAD, it is hard to recommend over the EBE3 which costs $301 less and delivers 55 km more range.
Small-frame e-bikes for short commutes, campus rides, and last-mile connections. The NANO (14 inch, $440) and EBE1 (16 inch, $770) use 36V systems with limited range. The S2 ($549) is a moped-style mini bike with a 48V system and 64 km range. It is the best value in the entire Gotrax lineup.
The EBE5 is a multi-terrain fat tire e-bike (26 inch) positioned between the folding models and the commuter line. The Porter is a cargo e-bike with a utility frame and 95 km range at $2,000 CAD. Both are niche products for specific use cases.
Scooters have shorter ranges than e-bikes, so cost-per-km values are higher. A budget scooter at $400 with 19 km range costs $21.05 per km. A premium model at $900 with 56 km range costs $16.07 per km. More expensive does not always mean worse value.
| Rank | Model | Class | Price (CAD) | Range | $/km | Motor | Speed | Tire | Weight | Available |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| #1 | XRE Pro | Mid-range | $480 | 30 km | $16.00 | 350W | 25 km/h | 10" | 35 lb | Limited |
| #2 | G6 | Performance | $900 | 56 km | $16.07 | 500W | 32 km/h | 10" | 45 lb | Limited |
| #3 | Flex Campus | Seated | $650 | 40 km | $16.25 | 500W | 32 km/h | 14" | 48 lb | Limited |
| #4 | Astro | Commuter | $510 | 30 km | $17.00 | 350W | 25 km/h | 8.5" | 30 lb | Available |
| #5 | Apex | Budget | $430 | 24 km | $17.92 | 250W | 25 km/h | 8.5" | 31 lb | Limited |
| #6 | Apex XL | Budget | $430 | 24 km | $17.92 | 250W | 25 km/h | 8.5" | 31 lb | Limited |
| #7 | Flex Campus Pro | Seated | $750 | 40 km | $18.75 | 500W | 32 km/h | 14" | 50 lb | Limited |
| #8 | Fusion | Seated | $450 | 22 km | $20.45 | 300W | 28 km/h | 8.5" | 38 lb | Limited |
| #9 | GXL V2 | Budget | $400 | 19 km | $21.05 | 250W | 25 km/h | 8.5" | 26 lb | Limited |
| #10 | Rival | Budget | $400 | 19 km | $21.05 | 250W | 25 km/h | 8.5" | 26 lb | Limited |
| #11 | Eclipse Ultra | Performance | $880 | 40 km | $22.00 | 500W | 32 km/h | 10" | 42 lb | Limited |
| #12 | XR Ultra | Mid-range | $480 | 21 km | $22.86 | 350W | 25 km/h | 8.5" | 32 lb | Limited |
| #13 | GX3 | Dual Motor | $2,199 | 64 km | $34.36 | 2x1000W | 60 km/h | 11" | 86 lb | Available |
TAKEAWAY: The G6 offers the best scooter value at $16.07 per km with 56 km range and a 720Wh battery. The Flex Campus ($650) is the best mid-range option with 40 km range and 14 inch tires. For budget buyers, the Astro ($510 ACTIVE) beats the GXL V2 and Apex on range and is actually in stock.
Eight models compete in this tier. Most use 36V batteries with 250W to 350W motors and 19 to 30 km range. The differences are subtle: the GXL V2 and Rival share identical specs. The Apex adds slightly more battery capacity. The XRE Pro stands out with a 10 inch tire and 30 km range.
For Canadian buyers, the Astro ($510, ACTIVE) is the best choice in this tier because it is actually available. Most budget models are in draft or limited stock.
This tier jumps to 48V battery systems with 500W motors and 32 km/h top speed. The Flex models have 14 inch tires and optional seating. The G6 is the range leader at 56 km with the largest battery in the scooter lineup (720Wh). All four are currently in draft status.
The GX3 is a different class of product. Dual 1000W motors, 11 inch tires, 60 km/h top speed, 86 lb weight. It competes with premium scooter brands, not with other models in the range. At $2,199 CAD it costs more than most Gotrax e-bikes. This is for experienced riders on private property or in municipalities that permit high-speed e-scooters.
Here is what most Gotrax reviews will not tell you: nearly half the lineup is not readily available in Canada.
Of 33 Gotrax products we track, 17 are active and 16 are in draft or limited availability. The draft products appear on gotrax.ca but may not be in stock or available for immediate shipping. This is a significant problem for Canadian buyers who research a specific model and then discover they cannot buy it.
| Category | Active (Available) | Draft/Limited | % Available |
|---|---|---|---|
| E-Bikes | 12 | 1 | 92% |
| Scooters | 2 | 11 | 15% |
| Hoverboards | 0 | 2 | 0% |
| Total | 17 | 16 | 52% |
TAKEAWAY: If you want a Gotrax product you can buy today in Canada, your real choices are narrower than the full catalogue suggests. Street Rides stocks active Gotrax models with Canadian dollar pricing. Check current availability here.
We track 738 e-mobility product listings on Amazon.ca across all brands. Here is where Gotrax sits in the Canadian market.
| Metric | Gotrax | Market Average | Note |
|---|---|---|---|
| Listings on Amazon.ca | 14 | 738 total | 9th by listing count (1.9% market share) |
| E-bike price range | $440-$2,000 CAD | $473-$4,999 CAD | Gotrax covers the budget-to-mid segment |
| Scooter price range | $400-$2,199 CAD | $150-$3,500 CAD | Budget through premium |
| Average star rating | 4.1 | 4.0 | Slightly above average |
| Battery systems | 36V and 48V | 36V, 48V, 52V, 72V | No high-voltage options |
| Motor range | 250W-2000W | 250W-3000W | Covers mainstream tiers |
| Biggest competitor (rising) | Hiboy (+90%) | N/A | Hiboy growing fastest in Google Trends |
It is not the cheapest brand in Canada or the most powerful. The advantage is breadth: 33 products spanning e-bikes, scooters, and hoverboards from $170 to $2,199 CAD. For Canadian buyers who want a recognized brand with a 2-year warranty and consistent parts ecosystem, Gotrax is a reasonable choice. The tradeoffs are limited high-end options and the Canadian availability gaps documented above.
TAKEAWAY: The brand competes on affordability and range of options, not on raw specs or premium quality. If you need a budget to mid-range e-bike or scooter from a brand with a parts supply chain, it fits. If you need high voltage, high speed, or guaranteed Canadian stock, look at alternatives.
What this guide does not cover: Hands-on ride reviews, long-term durability testing, or warranty claim outcomes. This is a data-driven comparison, not a subjective review.
Research time: Approximately 15 hours of data collection, cross-referencing, and analysis across 33 products and 738 marketplace listings.
Not every buyer compares the same way. Some need the cheapest option. Others need something that handles Ottawa winters or Vancouver hills. We matched every common buyer scenario from forums, social media, and real customer questions to the right model.
University and college riders need three things: foldable storage, lightweight carry, and a price under $600. The GXL V2 is the most popular student scooter in forum discussions for good reason. At 26 lb and $400 CAD, it folds to fit under a lecture hall desk or inside a dorm closet. The Apex adds a slightly larger battery (6.0Ah vs 5.4Ah) for 5 km more range at the same price.
For e-bike riders, the NANO ($440 CAD, 40 lb) is the smallest and lightest e-bike in the range. It folds, fits in a tight apartment, and handles a 5 km campus commute without issue. The S2 ($549 CAD) is heavier but offers double the range at 64 km for students with a longer commute.
| Need | Best Scooter | Price | Best E-Bike | Price |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Lightest / most portable | GXL V2 (26 lb) | $400 | NANO (40 lb) | $440 |
| Most range under $600 | Astro (30 km) | $510 | S2 (64 km) | $549 |
| Seated comfort | Fusion (seated, 22 km) | $450 | EBE1 (folding, 45 km) | $770 |
TAKEAWAY: The GXL V2 scooter or NANO e-bike for pure portability. The S2 e-bike for students who commute more than 10 km daily.
This is one of the most common questions on e-bike forums. A rider on BikeForums.net from Windsor, Ontario pointed out that hauling 290 lb up a 5 to 7 percent grade with a 270Wh battery is problematic. The math is straightforward: heavier riders drain batteries faster and need more motor torque on inclines.
Within the lineup, only 500W models with 48V batteries can reliably handle riders over 200 lb on hills. The 350W models (CTI, NANO, EBE1) and 250W scooters will struggle on anything steeper than 3 percent grade with a heavy rider.
| Model | Motor | Battery (Wh) | Max Payload | Hill Grade Rating | Our Verdict |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| GX3 Scooter | 2x1000W | 1000+ | 330 lb | Strong (dual motor) | Best for heavy riders on mixed terrain |
| F3V2 E-Bike | 500W | 672 | 300 lb | Good (large battery) | Best e-bike for hills + range |
| F5 E-Bike | 500W | 653 | 300 lb | Good (hydraulic brakes) | Best e-bike for hills + braking safety |
| CTI3 E-Bike | 500W | 672 | 264 lb | Moderate (27.5" wheels) | Good commuter but lower payload |
| EBE3 E-Bike | 500W | 499 | 264 lb | Moderate | Budget option but smaller battery for hills |
TAKEAWAY: If you weigh over 200 lb and ride hills, the F3V2 or F5 are your best e-bike options in the range. The 672Wh and 653Wh batteries have enough capacity to sustain motor output on climbs without depleting range too quickly. For scooters, only the GX3 has the power for heavy riders on inclines.
Winter riding in Canada means salt, slush, ice, and temperatures that regularly drop below minus 20 Celsius. No product in this lineup is designed for deep winter. But some handle cold conditions better than others.
All adult scooters and e-bikes in the lineup carry an IPX4 water resistance rating. That protects against splashing water from any direction but does not protect against submersion, heavy rain, or sustained slush exposure. IPX4 is the minimum. It is not winter-proof.
| Winter Factor | Best Choice | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Fat tires for snow traction | F3V2 / F5 / R2V2 (20"x4.0") | 4 inch fat tires float over packed snow and provide grip on loose surfaces |
| Largest battery (cold = less range) | F3V2 / CTI3 / Porter (672Wh) | Cold weather cuts range 20 to 40 percent. Start with the largest battery you can afford |
| Disc brakes (wet stopping) | F5 (hydraulic disc) | Hydraulic brakes outperform mechanical disc and rim brakes in wet conditions |
| Salt and corrosion resistance | Any model with enclosed battery | Remove and store battery indoors. Rinse frame weekly to remove road salt |
| Scooter winter riding | Not recommended | 8.5 to 10 inch scooter tires have no grip on ice or packed snow |
WINTER WARNING: Do not charge any lithium-ion battery below 0 degrees Celsius. Bring the battery indoors and let it reach room temperature before plugging in. Charging a cold battery causes permanent damage. See our Gotrax Battery Guide for full winter storage instructions.
TAKEAWAY: For winter riding, choose a fat tire e-bike (F3V2, F5, or R2V2) with the largest battery you can afford. Avoid scooters entirely in winter. Budget for a weekly wash to remove road salt.
Delivery riders need range, cargo capacity, and reliability over hundreds of kilometres per month. This is not the first brand most couriers choose, but their Porter cargo e-bike and longer-range models can work for part-time delivery shifts.
| Model | Range (PAS) | Cargo Capacity | Price (CAD) | Delivery Verdict |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Porter (cargo) | 95 km | Built-in cargo frame | $2,000 | Best for delivery. Purpose-built cargo design |
| F3V2 | 98 km | Rear rack compatible | $1,399 | Good for 2 to 3 hour shifts. Folding frame for apartment storage |
| CTI3 | 95 km | Rear rack compatible | $1,799 | Long range commuter. 27.5" wheels for speed between stops |
| S2 | 64 km | Limited cargo space | $549 | Budget option for short shifts only |
TAKEAWAY: The Porter is the right choice if delivery is your primary use. For part-time Uber Eats or DoorDash riders who also want a personal commuter, the F3V2 balances range, price, and apartment-friendly storage.
Older riders prioritize stability, comfortable seating, step-through access, and manageable weight. The Gotrax lineup includes several models that address these needs.
| Model | Type | Key Comfort Features | Price (CAD) | Weight |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| CTI2 (step-thru) | E-Bike | Step-through frame, 27.5" wheels, upright riding position | $1,499 | 60 lb |
| Flex Campus Pro | Seated Scooter | Built-in cushioned seat, 14" tires, rear suspension, storage basket | $750 | 50 lb |
| Fusion | Seated Scooter | Compact seated scooter, rear shock absorption | $450 | 38 lb |
| EBE3 | E-Bike | Upright commuter position, Shimano 7-speed, 27.5" wheels | $849 | 50 lb |
TAKEAWAY: The CTI2 step-through e-bike is the best Gotrax option for seniors who want a traditional bicycle experience. The Flex Campus Pro is the best seated scooter option. Both have manageable weight and stable riding geometry.
Canadian e-mobility laws vary by province. This matters because some Gotrax products exceed provincial speed or power limits for legal public road use. For a full breakdown of every province, see our complete guide to e-bike laws in Canada.
| Province | E-Bike Legal? | E-Scooter Legal? | Key Rules | Best Gotrax Models |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Ontario | Yes (500W, 32 km/h max) | Pilot program (varies by city) | Age 16+. Toronto bans e-scooters on public streets | Any 500W e-bike. Scooters: check your city |
| British Columbia | Yes (500W, 32 km/h max) | Municipal pilot only | Helmet required. Vancouver restricts scooters on seawall | Any 500W e-bike. Scooters: Vancouver/Kelowna pilots only |
| Quebec | Yes (500W, 32 km/h max) | Limited pilot | Age 14+. Must have functional pedals | Any 500W e-bike with pedals (all Gotrax e-bikes qualify) |
| Alberta | Yes (500W, 32 km/h max) | Municipal bylaws | Helmet required under 18. Calgary and Edmonton permit e-scooters | Any 500W e-bike. Scooters: Calgary and Edmonton |
| Manitoba | Yes (500W, 32 km/h max) | Not generally permitted | Helmet required | E-bikes only. No scooters on public roads |
| Saskatchewan | Yes (500W, 32 km/h max) | Not generally permitted | Helmet required | E-bikes only |
IMPORTANT: The Gotrax GX3 (2x1000W, 60 km/h) exceeds the federal 500W and 32 km/h limits for e-bikes and e-scooters. It is not legal for public road use in any Canadian province under current regulations. Use on private property only.
TAKEAWAY: All Gotrax e-bikes with 500W motors and 32 km/h top speed are legal in every province. Scooter legality depends on your city. Toronto, Winnipeg, and most Saskatchewan cities do not allow electric scooters on public roads. Check your municipal bylaws before buying a scooter.

Street Rides tracks 33 Gotrax products for the Canadian market as of May 2026. That includes 13 e-bikes, 13 electric scooters, and 2 hoverboards. Of these, 17 are currently active and 16 are in draft or limited availability. Not all models sold on gotrax.com ship to Canada.
The Gotrax NANO is the most affordable Gotrax e-bike available in Canada at $440 CAD. It is a compact 14 inch folding e-bike with a 350W motor and 41 km pedal-assisted range. The S2 moped-style e-bike at $549 CAD offers more range (64 km) and a larger battery for riders who want more capability.
The Gotrax EBE3 offers the best cost-per-kilometre value among Gotrax e-bikes at $10.61 per km of rated range. It costs $849 CAD and delivers up to 80 km of pedal-assisted range with a 48V 10.4Ah battery and 500W motor. The S2 is close behind at $8.58 per km.
Gotrax operates gotrax.ca for Canadian customers. However, not all models listed on the US site (gotrax.com) are available in Canada. Availability changes frequently. Street Rides is an authorized Gotrax dealer and stocks select models with Canadian dollar pricing and domestic shipping.
The Gotrax GX3 dual-motor scooter has the longest rated range at 64 km. Among single-motor scooters, the G6 leads with 56 km of range from its 48V 15Ah (720Wh) battery. The Flex Campus and Eclipse Ultra tie at 40 km.
Most Gotrax e-bikes comply with Canadian federal e-bike rules (500W motor limit, 32 km/h speed limit, functional pedals). Gotrax scooters face more complex regulations because electric scooter laws vary by province and municipality. Some cities run pilot programs that allow e-scooters on public roads. Others do not. Check your local bylaws before riding any electric scooter on public property.
All three are 20 inch fat tire folding e-bikes with 500W motors. The F1V2 ($899 CAD) has a 10.4Ah battery with 64 km range. The F3V2 ($1,399 CAD) upgrades to 14.0Ah with 98 km range. The F5 ($1,799 CAD) has a 13.6Ah battery with 97 km range plus leather accents and hydraulic brakes. The F3V2 offers the best range per dollar in this series.
