I purchased one of these for my wife to be the companion to my Gotway 84 volt MSX and we couldn't be happier. On the second day we took it out for a 26 mile ride at an average of 17mph(riding) and came out with approximately 40% battery left. I geared up and took it through the paces as well. All I can say is that the acceleration is amazing. Like, hold on for dear life fast. We are very pleased with this thus far and I have to say that your review is spot on.
Thanks for sharing! I'm still enjoying my Ghost a lot as well. It's an incredible ride and yup, the acceleration still surprises me - even outperforming some of the more expensive models out there.
Awesome detailed review. After hearing your point of view about this Beast I’m happy I chose Apollo Ghost as my first E scooter. Keep up the good work.
Excellent review. I really appreciated the effort you took in producing this video review. The content was delivered in a very systematic manner, video editing was perfect, and the content was not overwhelming with just the right amount of graphs to provide a very useful comparison to the viewer against how it stacks up to market competitors. Thank you for doing multiple range tests at various speeds, this was very informative and exactly what I needed as I am planning to commute to work and my round trip is 30km (~19mi) and contains a couple of steep hill climbs, so I was a little suspicious of the range of the Ghost, but your review has reassured me that the Ghost will have no problems with my commuting requirements, especially as we are limited to 25 km/h (~15 mi/h). Keep up the excellent work and looking forward to checking out your other reviews.
Hi, this is my first viewing of one of your videos and I just wanted to thank you. It was very enjoyable and informative, but it gave you that information in an easy to understand way for those of us that aren't electrical engineers, that was very much appreciated. I have now subscribed and look forward to the rest of your content.
I bought my Ghost and had second thoughts. Now...I freaking can't wait to get mine!!!!! Furthermore, your video is absolutely amazing 👏. All the necessary information and nothing else. Superb!
Glad I could help! As an owner of both a Mantis Pro and Ghost, I can say that they go head-to-head much of the way so the Ghost is likely the better value choice. Not to mention some solid Black Friday discounts on the Ghost at the moment.
Was looking for your review on this scooter when it first came out, love your videos, my guy. Your review on the explore is one of the main reasons why I bought my explore. Love it but wouldn't mind getting a dual-motor scooter. I think I'm going to save up for this one, another great review bro.
Glad you enjoyed it Ryan - about a full overtime work week of test riding, filming, editing so it means a lot to hear. More coming right around the corner.
Love how thorough you got w/ the testing and stats presentation -those motion graphs are great ! would have liked to see some footage of taking on a hill or 2 -id like to buy this one but i need tubeless tires to avoid flats so im probably gonna pick up a VSETT 8R :) keep up the good work!
Thanks very much Idrissa! Means a lot. More coming real soon - and yeah, I'll definitely try to get some hill footage next time I feature such a powerful scooter.
@@eRideHero thanks bro!! I just uploaded off road/hill tests using a single 800w motor with off road tires, then the ghost with its street tires but dual motor, so you can guess which was the winner haha. Gonna get some hybrid knobby tires for the ghost to make er more trail friendly. It’s my street ripper rn, and have my commuter, and my off roader which I just installed some extender bars with a bit 90mm rise making the bars 3-4” taller and 5 inches longer. Lots of upgrades coming for that one over the winter
Excellent review and thank you for letting know what I can expect from my Ghost as far as range .I'm so glad I went with the Ghost. I don't really notice what you said about the steering although I haven't gone 30 miles yet.I got it yesterday and I'm loving this scooter. One thing though, I started out using gear 3 but decided on using #2. The top speed is the same but take off acceleration is more manageable. Number 3 the throttle is way to sensitive. You have to have a really sensitive touch or you'll get thrown off the scooter.
Been riding ghost for 5-months, about 300-miles so far. My lower back is just starting to hurt, and it’s time to adjust the suspension, and get shock absorbing insoles for my boots! Ima keep riding! 😅
there is an adapter you can perchase for the rear tire stem , plus loose stem can be fixed by loosening allen key at bottom below stem one one each side (very tiny) than tighten bolt below at very bottom then tighten allen keys one one each side. save you 50 bucks wich won't fix it anyway.
love mine but rear valve stem is off so i just got a flat at 1st 250 k and can't use my bike pump to pump up and find leak. any advice would be appreciated ,thanks.
Thank you for the kind words, Joseph. Yes, I actually have the Cruiser on stock right now from VORO Motors and will be reviewing it hopefully before the end of this month. The Evolv Tour XL-R is next in line and then the Cruiser.
Apart from having Dynavolt battery, isn't this scooter basically same as all other scooters based on VDM-10? Both Bolzzen Dynamo and Dragon Raptor all the identical.
To my knowledge, that is correct. Titan is the factory behind the design used for a wide range of Zero, Apollo, TurboWheel, Varla (amonst other brands) scooters. It's something you generally see a lot in this industry so at times it comes down to who has the best deal or best after-sales support. The Phantom is Apollo's first complete own design.
@@eRideHero I’m gonna be picking this scooter up probably within the next month any updates for having it for a few months now? Any thing I should get on right out of the box?
The Ghost now has a hydraulic break option, but it costs extra. Did you find that the regular brakes had any trouble stopping the unit ? In other words, would the extra $200 be worth it for the hydraulic breaks (just normal riding around) ?
I personally love hydraulic brakes for how smooth they feel. Generally, they're more expensive but also more efficient and it's easier to make small braking adjustments. But the two mechanical brakes on the Ghost have excellent stopping power. Both types will get you stopping safely, but hydraulic ones do feel smoother. Whether it's worth the $200 comes down to personal preference and budget. If you feel bad about stretching your budget an additional $200, you should rest assured the standard ones will get the job done perfectly fine.
If you think this scooter is exciting try the Solar P1, not even the P1 Pro just the P1. Lol, rips your arms off and very fun to ride. I do love the Ghost tho, not knocking it. Great review with loads of tips too. Cheers.
Great review. I like the charts, measurements, and the money 💰 breakdowns. You have perfectly smooth roads so you didn't experience the notorious flat tires about this model. FYI the OEM/ODM model name is VDM-10. Thanks
Thanks man! Indeed we have. Roads are generally quite nice here in Denmark (and our country is extremely flat so it's hard to find inclines that'll actually be a challenge for a beast like this). And that is correct - the model name is indeed VDM-10.
@@eRideHero thanks I SUBBED! Do you plan on comparing this to the Phantom, oem name Dual Pro? I think VDM-10 is better bang for the buck. The Dual Pro costs 1.4x more and it does have nice upgrades the performance is almost exactly the same. Do you know if there is good aftermarket front fender so the water doesn't get on the deck?
Great review. Have you gotten any flats? Unfortunately all these reviews seem to take place in the flatlands and not in hilly territory like where I live.
Thanks Fred. I have not gotten any flats thus far, but as I constantly get new products to review, I don't have the time to ride products that much after the review process is done. I'd say I've done about 200 km on the Ghost since this video - still rides wonderfully. But with any scooter with pneumatic tires, it's more a question of "when" rather than "if" you'll get a flat tire. It's the payoff of the improved ride quality sadly.
I too get my Ghost in a month, cant wait. Was looking at this or the phantom but i went for the Ghost for 2 reasons, price and portability since i want to take it on the train here and there in NYC
This vs the Varla Eagle one which you would say is the best for this price catorgory? I'm looking for something in the 1.9k range it could be 2k if the fees of shipping and stuff are included !
Hi Andy - yeah as Russ mentioned I quickly touch on hill climbing ability in the video. It's amongst the best in its price class and will handle about any hill you'll dare to throw yourself at.
Hey great video. Just wondering if you can share your thoughts on it’s portability. If you were to take in on a train and had to collapse and carry it a flight or two of stairs, would you say it’s manageable? Let me know thanks!
I agree, but to a point. The ghost boiled down the best aspects of the pro and other scooters in the same-ish price and build range. The phantom has more build quality, thats for sure. Specs aren't out of this world when closely compared, hence the little price difference (pre-order) We'll see what shakes out in terms of quality, but we'll have to wait until June to know!
Hi Terkel - that's correct. The max speed is indeed 20 km/h. With these big scooters, I always drive out into the countryside in my car where there is hardly any traffic or people to minimize the risk of getting pulled over etc. :)
@@eRideHero Okay thanks for the answer. I live on Als in a tiny city called Nordborg where I see police maybe 1 time each 2 months, do you think an ghost driven carefully max 20kmh will attract the revemue generator soldiers? I also like the vsett9plus, which is better of those 2 in your oppinion both quality and "illegal looking ness"?
@@terkelalgevind529 Mojn! It's a good question really. I have never been stopped myself but I rarely ride on the "big scooters" in the city. Most often take them out to the countryside with minimal traffic. I'm actually not sure how cops would react to seeing a VSett 9+ or Ghost in the city. I have yet to test the Vsett 9+ so can't comment on its performance but it looks like an awesome scooter and I'm hearing good things about it. I'm not sure if the cops are allowed to confiscate illegal e-scooters but if they are, it would be a bummer to love such an expensive ride. Crossing fingers the laws change for the better in the coming years.
No surprise the Ghost is compared to the zero 10x, per the info I have, they are made by the same company in the same factory, as is the Vsett and a few other scooters. Make a few cosmetic changes, put on some different labels and you have a 10x in disguise. As a zero 10X owner I have no problem with this, however, had to laugh recently when I saw a complaint about a 10x where the reviewer said he wished he had gotten a more reliable Vsett.
Yes, without a doubt. It seems to be how the industry works at the moment. But huge props to Apollo for pushing forward by making their own design with the Phantom. It requires a lot of funds and it's a big risk from a business standpoint. I think we'll see more brands with unique designs rather than OEMs in the future as the e-scooter market grows.
I hit 40 mph today with food going up hill not to steep but i can't believe it i hit 40 mph darn thing is fast no wobble i got a superclamp the old one was just not doing it original clamp is just too flimsy made new clamp very beefy this scooter is top notch its a sleeper it get up and goes dont under estimate the power of this scooter guys it goes!
@@MagicMikeBilliards go for it get the 28 R you will get more range the Vestt 10 +is a thrill just be ready for the looks you get when hitting 50 mph i had the ghost great training scooter still is fast that can hit 40
@@MagicMikeBilliards the ghost is the best of all Apollo scooters if mine didnt get stolen from my work i would still have it but you need a super clamp for it and lock tight all the neck bolt but for the price it a awesome scooter the Vsett 10 + was bought by my boss as a gift he got me the best 10+ mike the ghost is great it wont let you down the lights and the deck and power for the price yhea get it just lock it up when you go inside or it will live up too its name no joke .have a great day
Yeah, it's nowhere the price of entry-level models but as with most things, you get what you pay for. (in this case, maybe even more than you pay for haha). If you're looking for a great starter e-scooter, I recommend checking out the Turboant X7 Pro - I've got a review of that on my channel as well. Thanks for watching.
Hi Albert. Yes, the Ghost will have no problem handling your weight. You'll surely enjoy a dual-motor setup like the Ghost as it gives more acceleration freedom - also up hills.
I got this scooter back in early December for these testing purposes. Sorry to hear you're waiting for such a long time. From my understanding, this is a global situation that affects not only Apollo but the entire scooter market (and many other markets as well). Containers are stuck around the world and delays are heaping up. I'm confident Apollo is doing everything within their power to keep operations running smoothly but it's really the sad reality at present. Hope you get your awesome scooter soon - it'll be worth the wait. Regards, Rasmus
Hi Regin, sorry for the late reply. So, I work with various brands to make these reviews possible and in this case Chris from Apollo has helped me out with shipping (but it is very expensive, something like $400 per unit not to mention there may be added tax on top of that). If you're located in a place where Apollo doesn't ship to on their website, it may be worth reaching out to them directly, or if you're handy enough to handle your own repairs (should you face any issues along the way) you may check out the Titan VDM-10 (which is the factory this scooter is sourced from) on Alibaba or their official website for a cheaper price than Apollo overall.
Laotie, Janobike or Boyeda scooters on bangood are cheaper and have better perfomance. Better battery, more power (up to 2x 3000W) and cost around 1100$.
Apollo has horrible after purchase customer service. If your scooter got issues and you need to send back they will simply refuse to take it, specially if you did the wheels and brake test during assembling as required by them, because they will claim it is no longer unused. After watching many videos and reading a lot of reviews I thought they were a great company, tuns out that changes after purchase.
Sorry, but obsolete already. Check out the VSETT 9+ Cheaper by almost $500 yet higher quality, bigger battery, longer range, comparable speed, a lot lighter & more portable, most secure stem clamp system with zero wobble, indicators lights, and a card or phone unlock system instead of dangling keys you can't remove while riding. Looks a lot cooler too (imo). No brainer if you ask me. There's also the VSETT 10+ Lite that's only a little bit more $$ but is an absolute 45mph beast with all of the above plus hydraulic brakes.
The VSett 9+ looks super exciting but I have yet to see it retail $500 cheaper than the Ghost (to my knowledge, they're about the same in price)? The smaller wheels are a no-no for me personally and the motor power doesn't match the Ghost. The VSett is less dust-proof (IP44 vs IP54). I have yet to test it myself but hope to do so in the future. Still, I think both scooters have a very warrantable spot in today's market.
Alot of unused power. in zwero 11 3200 w total.and maj is onj 18a+52v 1987W is zero 11. but it is great anywyay.. cant imagine changing 3200wah matarijo in 2 controlara za 64. then i m sure i wuld not want more
I dont understand why this is so hyped, you can buy much better scooters for way less money, I have a ZonDoo ZO01 with two 1200Watts mottors, a 52V/28.2AH battery, with a max range of 80 km, with a max speed of about 70 km/h with very similar suspension to the apollo ghost, but better dessigned for off roading, and it only cost me 818€ with the shipment included and 1 year guaranty
Do not buy this scooter buy a Varla Eagle 1 or version 2 you'll get twice the scooter power and range for the same price unbelievable specs compared to Apollo I'm Blown Away with how terrible the specs are on Apollo Scooters for their price all because they have nice people forget that
Do not buy their scooters especially if you're not in Canada, their support system is worst than third world and they now how bad it is they don't have a phone line to speak directly with a representative . I purchased an apolo air 1 year ago and it came out of the box inoperable and it's sitting at a scooter shop in Miami waiting for Apollo to send the correct part after sending the wrong part 3 x
I purchased one of these for my wife to be the companion to my Gotway 84 volt MSX and we couldn't be happier. On the second day we took it out for a 26 mile ride at an average of 17mph(riding) and came out with approximately 40% battery left. I geared up and took it through the paces as well. All I can say is that the acceleration is amazing. Like, hold on for dear life fast. We are very pleased with this thus far and I have to say that your review is spot on.

@@eRideHero Okay thanks for the answer. I live on Als in a tiny city called Nordborg where I see police maybe 1 time each 2 months, do you think an ghost driven carefully max 20kmh will attract the revemue generator soldiers? I also like the vsett9plus, which is better of those 2 in your oppinion both quality and "illegal looking ness"?
@@terkelalgevind529 Mojn! It's a good question really. I have never been stopped myself but I rarely ride on the "big scooters" in the city. Most often take them out to the countryside with minimal traffic. I'm actually not sure how cops would react to seeing a VSett 9+ or Ghost in the city. I have yet to test the Vsett 9+ so can't comment on its performance but it looks like an awesome scooter and I'm hearing good things about it. I'm not sure if the cops are allowed to confiscate illegal e-scooters but if they are, it would be a bummer to love such an expensive ride. Crossing fingers the laws change for the better in the coming years.
Please let me know how i can turn on deck LED strip lights ?
I know it's late but hold the Mode button
@@work5542 thank you, appreciate your reply!
No surprise the Ghost is compared to the zero 10x, per the info I have, they are made by the same company in the same factory, as is the Vsett and a few other scooters. Make a few cosmetic changes, put on some different labels and you have a 10x in disguise. As a zero 10X owner I have no problem with this, however, had to laugh recently when I saw a complaint about a 10x where the reviewer said he wished he had gotten a more reliable Vsett.
Yes, without a doubt. It seems to be how the industry works at the moment. But huge props to Apollo for pushing forward by making their own design with the Phantom. It requires a lot of funds and it's a big risk from a business standpoint. I think we'll see more brands with unique designs rather than OEMs in the future as the e-scooter market grows.
Nice work.
Thanks Matt!
I hit 40 mph today with food going up hill not to steep but i can't believe it i hit 40 mph darn thing is fast no wobble i got a superclamp the old one was just not doing it original clamp is just too flimsy made new clamp very beefy this scooter is top notch its a sleeper it get up and goes dont under estimate the power of this scooter guys it goes!
is 34mph fast enough to get a rush of adrenaline and to get around quickly?Thinking of the vsett10+ for this reason (46-50) mph
@@MagicMikeBilliards go for it get the 28 R you will get more range the Vestt 10 +is a thrill just be ready for the looks you get when hitting 50 mph i had the ghost great training scooter still is fast that can hit 40
@@Robert127 Do you think the Ghost is good enough then considering it’s price vs the 10R price of the vsett
@@MagicMikeBilliards the ghost is the best of all Apollo scooters if mine didnt get stolen from my work i would still have it but you need a super clamp for it and lock tight all the neck bolt but for the price it a awesome scooter the Vsett 10 + was bought by my boss as a gift he got me the best 10+ mike the ghost is great it wont let you down the lights and the deck and power for the price yhea get it just lock it up when you go inside or it will live up too its name no joke .have a great day
I want to bay Apollo ghost soo much but it’s to expensive for me ;-;
Yeah, it's nowhere the price of entry-level models but as with most things, you get what you pay for. (in this case, maybe even more than you pay for haha). If you're looking for a great starter e-scooter, I recommend checking out the Turboant X7 Pro - I've got a review of that on my channel as well. Thanks for watching.
I weigh a little over 230..
Do you think it will reach an ok speed??
Hi Albert. Yes, the Ghost will have no problem handling your weight. You'll surely enjoy a dual-motor setup like the Ghost as it gives more acceleration freedom - also up hills.
@@eRideHero ya when I finally decide to pull the trigger Apollo will be the one
How long did it take to get your scooter from Apollo? I'm going on 8 weeks and I still haven't received it yet!
I got this scooter back in early December for these testing purposes. Sorry to hear you're waiting for such a long time. From my understanding, this is a global situation that affects not only Apollo but the entire scooter market (and many other markets as well). Containers are stuck around the world and delays are heaping up. I'm confident Apollo is doing everything within their power to keep operations running smoothly but it's really the sad reality at present. Hope you get your awesome scooter soon - it'll be worth the wait. Regards, Rasmus
How did you get this to Denmark? @eRideHero
Hi Regin, sorry for the late reply. So, I work with various brands to make these reviews possible and in this case Chris from Apollo has helped me out with shipping (but it is very expensive, something like $400 per unit not to mention there may be added tax on top of that). If you're located in a place where Apollo doesn't ship to on their website, it may be worth reaching out to them directly, or if you're handy enough to handle your own repairs (should you face any issues along the way) you may check out the Titan VDM-10 (which is the factory this scooter is sourced from) on Alibaba or their official website for a cheaper price than Apollo overall.
Btw thanks for the review
Please do the phantom
How much do you weigh if you don't mind me asking. I'm just amazed that it can go 36mph
No problem at all. I weigh about 165 lbs (around 75 kg).
@@eRideHero thanks for the info my man

Wow that girl is strong. I can't lift 64lbs. 😫 😞😞😞😞😞😞😞😞😞
Haha, yeah - I think she'd have excellent powerliftning potential if she gave it a go
Very nice scooter!
Laotie, Janobike or Boyeda scooters on bangood are cheaper and have better perfomance. Better battery, more power (up to 2x 3000W) and cost around 1100$.
Apollo has horrible after purchase customer service. If your scooter got issues and you need to send back they will simply refuse to take it, specially if you did the wheels and brake test during assembling as required by them, because they will claim it is no longer unused. After watching many videos and reading a lot of reviews I thought they were a great company, tuns out that changes after purchase.
It looks so much like a Kaabo Mantis
There definitely are resemblances but at the core they're vastly different rides
👍👍👍👍👍🙂❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Sorry, but obsolete already. Check out the VSETT 9+
Cheaper by almost $500 yet higher quality, bigger battery, longer range, comparable speed, a lot lighter & more portable, most secure stem clamp system with zero wobble, indicators lights, and a card or phone unlock system instead of dangling keys you can't remove while riding. Looks a lot cooler too (imo). No brainer if you ask me. There's also the VSETT 10+ Lite that's only a little bit more $$ but is an absolute 45mph beast with all of the above plus hydraulic brakes.
@the Ghöst more like 4 😉
But is that really worth the extra $500 and lack of all the other features?
@@PkKingX11 $500? What are you talking about
The VSett 9+ looks super exciting but I have yet to see it retail $500 cheaper than the Ghost (to my knowledge, they're about the same in price)? The smaller wheels are a no-no for me personally and the motor power doesn't match the Ghost. The VSett is less dust-proof (IP44 vs IP54). I have yet to test it myself but hope to do so in the future. Still, I think both scooters have a very warrantable spot in today's market.
Nope! Its ugly bro!
8.5 inch tires going that fast? no thanks.
Alot of unused power. in zwero 11 3200 w total.and maj is onj 18a+52v 1987W is zero 11. but it is great anywyay.. cant imagine changing 3200wah matarijo in 2 controlara za 64. then i m sure i wuld not want more
Dam 30 miles an hour
Yup - this thing is blazing fast. Tested top speed of 36.3 MPH (=58.2 KMH)

pls make ASMR
Haha - I take that request as a compliment. :D 2nd channel incoming??
@@eRideHeroIt is a compliment
I have a mantis pro and do 40 mph easy the ghost is not quicker then the pro
Mantis 8 or 10 Pro?
I dont understand why this is so hyped, you can buy much better scooters for way less money, I have a ZonDoo ZO01 with two 1200Watts mottors, a 52V/28.2AH battery, with a max range of 80 km, with a max speed of about 70 km/h with very similar suspension to the apollo ghost, but better dessigned for off roading, and it only cost me 818€ with the shipment included and 1 year guaranty
is it good?
Do not buy this scooter buy a Varla Eagle 1 or version 2 you'll get twice the scooter power and range for the same price unbelievable specs compared to Apollo I'm Blown Away with how terrible the specs are on Apollo Scooters for their price all because they have nice people forget that
Any one have a ghost and want to race let me no
i bought one brand new...front motor blew after 80 km....very poor service and arrogant .....
Its slow
Do not buy their scooters especially if you're not in Canada, their support system is worst than third world and they now how bad it is they don't have a phone line to speak directly with a representative . I purchased an apolo air 1 year ago and it came out of the box inoperable and it's sitting at a scooter shop in Miami waiting for Apollo to send the correct part after sending the wrong part 3 x
