Now that early Black Friday deals abound, we're already seeing a lot of excellent Black Friday electric scooter deals from top retailers and e-scooter manufacturers. But the best deal we've found so far is this early bird special from NIU.
Slashing 25% off the NIU KQi3 Pro Electric Kick Scooter, which usually retails for a mid-range $799 in the US, not only gives you a hefty $200 discount, it also gives allows you to score one of the most impressive electric scooters we've tested and reviewed for the price of a budget scooter, giving you more bang for your buck.
The NIU KQi3 Pro, which scored a perfect score and an Editor's Choice award in our review, is among the best e-scooters we've tested recently – and that's in the face of tough rivals from popular brands like Segway and GoTrax. It delivers an impressive performance, boasts a 20% hill grade for climbing steeper hills, and has a top speed of 20mph. However, the best part about this electric scooter is its excellent shock absorption – something that most other models, even the premium ones, are, at best, mediocre in. It's all thanks to those 2.5-inch-thick tires.
You can take advantage of this deal at BestBuy or get it direct from NIU. Both offer the advantage of FREE Shipping – though if you are a BestBuy member, you might prefer the former.
If you're looking for something under $500, its predecessor is also on sale at the NIU online store. The NIU KQi2 Pro, which is also 25% off, has a slightly lower top speed than the KQi3 Pro and only has a 15% hill grade. However, it boasts the same fat tires, which means that if you're on a budget but want the best shock absorption, it might be the better value of the two for you.
If you've got your eye on a different electric scooter model or brand, we're tracking the best Black Friday electric scooter deals on a separate page. Whether it's a budget one you want or something from GoTrax, TurboAnt, or Segway specifically, you're not short of places to spot a bargain during this year's sale event.
