This scooter could be great if it has better brakes than your last one – on a device this powerful they were far too weak to be considered safe. Get good brakes and I’ll buy one
It’s great that they added additional breaking. Now if they would only add inflated pneumatic tires it would be an instant buy for me. The tires make a big difference in comfort and safety when riding in snow or wet conditions.
Pneumatic tires are not in plan for us at the moment. Most of our customers prefer airless tires as they can carry more weight, they don’t go flat and they deliver a better range.
Hi Nick! Pneumatic tires are not in our plans at the moment. Most people prefer airless to avoid flat tires. Airless tires also deliver a better range.
Great news on much needed upgrades. Was wondering if the current battery specs have also changed(currently 48 V; 10,5 Ah). On your European website http://www.etwow.es you guys have a 48V;15AH version as well as a dual motor 500W version on the GT. Will these models also be available in the U.S and if so when will they begin shipping?
Are you able to tell us the UK list price for the 2020? I was just about to buy the GT until I found this page, will happily wait until the end of March to buy the 2020 model so long as the price is similar. Cheers
Not necessarily. It can also be the 2019 GT. Please check the specifications and be very careful when buying from aliexpress.com and other similar platforms, as you run the risk of buying fake products and in most cases, you don’t benefit from warranty and support.
I just bought a E-twow GT with a kickstand but no drum brake. Is the kickstand a genuine addition or an aftermarket modification?
Its a good escooter, I’ve been enjoying it.
Does the brake make it impossible to dolly around via the back wheel? If so, the addition of a handle on the back would be a great help so it can be rolled along by the front wheel.
I really would like to get a drum break on my existing GT. Does pulling on the physical lever engage the E brake too?
I really hope that you guys plan on selling a mod kit for the 2019 GT, please don’t make me buy a 3rd party mod, please sell more scooter mods through your site, take my money!!!
If you were to sell a mod, would it require a new rear fork, or can I just install the wheel and break on an existing GT model? I’m assuming I would require some wiring too…
I ended up buying the 2019 drum brake kit from France E-Twow site, using a 3rd party parcel service. I’m not too pleased to pay $200 USD but my scooter should be safer now.
I really wish the US distributor would update their product line, specifically modifications and accessories. I’m kind of upset that the 2019 GT scooter was in Europe all 2019 summer, then we got it in winter at the end of the year, just as you guys start releasing new models, I bought my 2019 GT at a premium, $1300, and 4 months later the 2020 drops, and now I hear that there’s a 15AH model in spain…
Is my 2019 GT computer/dashboard able to accept the data cable from the 2020 GT brake lever so that it can signal the e-brake simultaneously?
Hi William. As demand is increasing in the US, newer models will be available sooner. Unfortunately, the 2019 GT won’t accept the data from the 2020 GT brake lever. You would have to change several other parts as well including the controller, otherwise the GT brake lever will only activate the basic drum brake.
Any plans to implement an alarm? Would be helpful to have a gyroscope in the scooter, and an alarm go off when it is moved. Could have it connect to your phone via Bluetooth.
Alarms haven’t been required by customers so far. One of the main reasons why we try to maintain the scooters lightweight is so that people can easily store them inside without worrying about them being stolen.
I’m very excited about the 2020 etwow Booster GT with rear drum break and kickstand! You are listening to your customers and I congratulate you for it. When we this scooter be available in the United States? I am ready to order one right now, but I would rather wait until I can get the rear drum break. Thank you for all the work you are doing. And I hope all is will with the current health concerns in the world. David
Hi David! Thank you for your support. The GT2020 will be available in the USA very soon. Please contact our dealers https://uscooters.com/ for more details regarding the release date.
I am happy to say that I purchased a 2020 Booster GT from uscooters. today. I feel very good about their technology that takes order. I got almost instant response through Arrive app on Iphone that my order had been accepted. Also, Scott, who works at their office answering emails, was very prompt. He answered my first inquiry within a couple of minutes and continued to answer all of my questions right way. I also wanted to let you know that Ben Fox, a video Vlogger from the UK, made a big impression on me when I was doing research on Youtube. He really puts in a good word for Etwow. I will update this post once my scooter arrives and I have had a change to take it for a spin or two. Seattle Washington is very hilly, so I will let you know my experience in this challenging environment for torque and braking. David
How pleased I was when my Booster GT was dropped off the other day by a nice man from Fed Ex. I am so please with what I now have to look forward to.
The breaks are better than I could have imagined. The rear drum break is as good as any cycle brake that I have ever used. The function is very smooth and powerful. The regenerative brakes are powerful and do add to battery life.
The kickstand is wonderful; very well designed.
I live in probably one of the more hilly places that someone would find to try to ride an electric scooter. Seattle and San Francisco share that trait. I have found a couple of hills that are a challenge for the 700 W motor, but if I kick a few times I can get up the hill in the L5 setting. On flat areas, the scooter performs better than I could have ever hoped for.
The build quality is spot on in every way. One thing that I did notice – now that a brake lever is attached to the left handlebar, the folding mechanism doesn’t quite stay folded due to the brake cable. I will be trying to figure out how to keep that folded when I am wanting the scooter super compact.
Uscooters is a very good online dealer. The technology they use to send order confirmation, the speedy way that tracking information shows up through text messages and on the Arrive app, as well as the speed at which they respond to emails, is some of the best help that I have ever received from an independent online dealer.
Thank you for a wonderful new addition to my travels,
Hi David. I just got GT 2020 and live in Seattle. Questions: would it not climb our hills in L4 setting? Does it have cruise control? Is the rear cable brake designed to flip over the handlebar and press on the thumb accelerator making it more like a motorcycle accelerator? The manual supplied is not for the 2020 so it says no L5, no cruise control and nothing about the flippy rear brake handle on the handlebar. Thanks
-Sally
Hi Stefan! It will be available next week in Austria. For more info, please get in touch with our local dealers. You can find their info on the Find a Dealer Page
I have had the 2020 etwow gt for a few weeks now and can say that this is an excellent electric scooter. Excellent power, battery life, and brakes. All round this is a superb package. Well done.
I have the 2019 model and agree the addition of a drum break addresses it’s biggest issue; will probably get a 2020 model when they’re available in UK. Now to make it perfect you just need to add cruise control; does it have it – if not any plan to add?
This is a very positive move. I have a couple additional suggestions for your next iteration:
1) Adjustable handlebars – allow users to select width of the handles.
2) Increased regenerative braking – if technically possible, I’d suggest increasing the regenerative capability even further, especially when fully engaged.

I’d also love pneumatic tires, do you think it would be possible to add 3rd party ones?

When will it be available to buy in the UK? Colours? Guide price?
It will be available in the UK by the end of March. It comes in white, gray and black
Thanks for clarifying… Do you know what the max payload weight will be? I’m hoping it can handle 16 stone / 225 lbs!
Yes, it can handle up to 125 kg
Great thanks for the information! I’ve pre-ordered now here in the UK. Will have to wait until end of April though…

GT2020 will feature a 10,2 AH, 48 V battery. At the moment we don’t plan on marketing the Spain models in the USA

Please contact our official UK dealer for the price of the GT2020
Hey!
I see some Aliexpress seller sells E-twow S3 GT. Is this the same model as shown? S3 isnt shown under the products category. Thanks in advance!
Not necessarily. It can also be the 2019 GT. Please check the specifications and be very careful when buying from aliexpress.com and other similar platforms, as you run the risk of buying fake products and in most cases, you don’t benefit from warranty and support.
I just bought a E-twow GT with a kickstand but no drum brake. Is the kickstand a genuine addition or an aftermarket modification?
Its a good escooter, I’ve been enjoying it.
Hi Tony! From where did you buy it (country)?
What will be the total weight?
Hi. Total weight will be 13 kg
Does the brake make it impossible to dolly around via the back wheel? If so, the addition of a handle on the back would be a great help so it can be rolled along by the front wheel.
Hi Aaron. Don’t worry, you can still roll the scooter on the back wheel.
When will it be available to buy it in Hungary? Thanks
It will be available next week in Hungary. In the meantime you can preorder at our local dealers: http://www.e-twow.hu
I really would like to get a drum break on my existing GT. Does pulling on the physical lever engage the E brake too?

Thank you for your feedback. We will consider a kit for older models. Where are you from?
I’m also wondering if a kit will be available. We’d pay good money for this. The country is USA.
We’ll do our best to deliver a kit as soon as possible
I would also be VERY interested in a drum break add on for the 2019 model I’m in NYC USA
Hi. We plan on offering a drum brake kit for older models, but we don’t have an official release date yet. Stay tuned for more details 😉
I’d love a drum brake kit for my 2019 Booster GT. I’m in the USA,…
Hello. We have plans to release a drum brake kit in the near future. Stay tuned for more details

Do you have an idea for a launch date in USA? We literally JUST ordered the 2019 GT without the disk break or kick stand today and the I saw this 🙁
Hi. Please contact our USA dealers https://uscooters.com
As soon as this is out in the UK, I’m buying it. I hope i won’t have to wait too long!
It will be available in the UK in a few weeks
Any plans to implement an alarm? Would be helpful to have a gyroscope in the scooter, and an alarm go off when it is moved. Could have it connect to your phone via Bluetooth.

When will it be available in the U.S and if it’s already in the U.S. where can I find it?

Hi. You can find it at https://uscooters.com/

My gt2020p doesn’t have a L5 mode and no cruise control 🙁
L4 is 39 km/h max
Hi Thomas! L5 limit no longer exists, except for older models. 40 km is the top speed on the GT scooters.
Well done on adding rear break Etwow have done a great job after lots of research I’m going to order 2020 GT when available in uk
