This one is a bit faster and has a stronger motor, but not as good for crappy roads.
Expect real world range with stop and go to be closer to half what is listed. If I am in sport mode, gunning it, and going up and down hills, I probably only get 25% of the stated range. If I am on a smooth bike trail and put it in a cruise control at 16 mph, I can get about 75% of the range. The only way you are going to get close to 100% of the range is in eco mode going like 9 mph.
The Segway app is excellent and you can enable things like regen breaking. It also does fairly regular firmware upgrades which are actually useful, although you will hear people complain because sometimes the upgrades change things like reduce acceleration but for the benefit of something else.
I do recommend that you change the charging capacity to 80% in the app because that is a lot healthier for the battery. If I'm doing a longer ride, then I will charge it to 100%.
Also, it is not good to charge a hot battery directly after a ride, so within the Segway app, while you can't set a charging delay, you can set the charging time so I set mine to charge between midnight and 7:00 a.m. because I know I won't be using it then.
Overall, I have been very happy with Segway.

If this had 1000wh, then i would be more inclined to believe it.

You might think you look silly all geared up, but there's a dozen different ways to get cooked in an accident on a high speed scooter.
