I was unaware of this until I received a blow out on the rear tire.
I contacted Gotrax customer support directly after realizing this, as I was outside the 14 day return/exchange from Amazon.
Skyler from Gotrax pretty much told me they would replace the scooter I had, with the honeycomb tire version at no cost to me, I just had to send it back to them with a label they provided me & I printed out
It took maybe 2.5 weeks for return and exchange process to fulfill
As far as the scooter goes - from my personal testing with both models:
I got the advertised milage out of both versions & both scooters had more "pep" than my old gxl V2 scooter.
Both models are rear drive motors & feature active brake light on the rear fender
I have had two fenders break on my old gxl V2 scooters over the years & the rear fender on the apex xl is much more reinforced - to the point I don't think it'll ever break
Tl:dr:
The apex XL is absolutely worth the money for the quality & features it has - bump the tighter weight by 40 & it'll be more accessible as well
Make sure you know if you're getting the honeycomb tire model, or pneumatic tires

BUILD QUALITY AND FEATURES
The scooter is build very solid, no creaks or funny sounds when operating it, and it really feels like it could take a beating. The standing position has a rubberized grip on it so you don't slip off, and it can be carried easily while it is folded with one hand. It is about 30lbs, so I wouldn't walk everywhere with it, but its light enough that you can move it from one place to another. The additional features like a blinking red light on the back when the brake is pressed, an LED headlight, solid feeling kickstand, and a very large heads-up-display are nice additions too.
RIDE FEEL
The air filled tires are fantastic, driving over the pavement with crack, the sidewalk, or moving onto the sloped curb is seamless and doesn't feel like I'm going to be thrown off. There is no suspension on the scooter though so a larger drop or continuous bumps is going to be felt eventually. Steering the scooter was extremely easy to get a hang of and as someone who hasn't rode a bike in years, riding the scooter seemed like second nature.
SPEED AND DISTANCE
For speed and distance, it gets up to its advertised 15.5mph speed really quickly and the motor doesn't hesitate at all. I am 160lbs for reference. I was able to get up the inclines in my neighborhood no problem which are moderately steep of 5-7 degrees. For distance I was able to get it to my point of public transit and back to my home easily (which is about 8km total) and still have half of the battery left.
SUGGESTIONS
If there were a few things I would like improved in the scooter, first the included instructions are wrong, it tells you to remove the hook that clips the scooter closed when its folded to install the handlebars. You do NOT need to do this. I got pretty stumped right there wondering why there wasn't an included Allen key to remove that hook. Second, the bell is a little loose so it dings quietly when you're riding on the sidewalk or bumps, I might want to put a piece of tape on it. Third it would have been nice if the handle bars could have folded too, my garage is really tight fit and foldable bars would have helped with the tight space
While those are suggestions for improvements, it doesn't take away the fact this is an excellent electric scooter for the money and now my days of being stuck in the parking lot of the transit station is now over.

Ok, first it takes a bit of getting used to. It's my first scooter, I expected more easy balancing than that but you have to get used to it gradually. You have to learn to position your body, feet, shift according to how you're moving, be careful about shifting feet position while moving, etc.
I'm 165 lbs and I could get it to 15.5 mph - edit: GPS measures say it is 13.3 mph - without any problem. But it does not exceed 15.5 mph. Even going downhill with the throttle. The new models are limited to that speed I read.
I was able to go up an overpass (150-200 meters of climb, at maybe 7° ? ), and at 13 mph at first and then gradually slowing to 11.4 mph. Not bad.
I only rode for 3 miles, and there were 3 bars out of 4 left. But when I plugged in the charger, the lights were green???? Hmm, can I trust this. (Edit: I unplugged the charger, and plugged it back, the lights are red).
I'll make a longer test, try to push it to the max and report here. Edit: I did a 6.6 miles test, held an average 10.1 mph, though traffic slowed me a while, I could have done 10.5 mph average I guess. Max speed 13.3 mph. All this calculated by GPS. There was one bar and a blinking 2nd bar, out of 4 left. 2.5 miles per bar?
However it's a sturdy scooter, the stem is hard, a bit massive, the wheels are tough and thick (pneumatic but tough), slimed (a puncture sealing substance) it seems. There's Locktite or something on the screws. A substance to secure screws.
All in all seems good for short - 10-12 miles - commutes. If you don't push the throttle to the maximum.
The plastic stuff (the latch for the stem when you fold it) seems a bit cheap.
The scooter is easy enough to lift but if you had to walk with it for several minutes you might find that hard. But the wheels roll easily so you can roll it while folded or opened.
Overall, besides the balancing issue at first, it's fun, and it makes getting around easy. Moving at 13 mph 60% of the time seems realistic-then it falls to 11. For me.
Real riding distance for my weight and hilly area is around 10-12 km. Battery life indicator is not adequate. Scooter runs most of distance with 4 and 3 lines on the indicator. After it shows 2 lines, battery dies very quickly. 8.5 inches wheels are too small for poor Quebec roads. So if you don't have smooth roads, consider buying something with bigger wheels and shock absorbers.
For months I was dealing with the customer service trying to explain the situation. It's under warranty and I also purchased the extra extended warranty that covers even more. They wanted to do the bare minimum. They didn't want to help and stopped answering my emails. The ones it would take a week to reply to with nothing helpful. After threatening to write a review about it (which I've decided to do now anyway), they finally agreed to send a new one.
Same issue. Within 2 weeks my tires were flat, the back tube popped, battery died and oil was coming out. I just ride to work with it and sometimes the gym. I try not to go over the weight limit, but that's the closest I've gone to treating it "poorly." I live in the city so it's mostly flat paved surfaces. There are occasional pot holes I have to avoid, but that's everywhere. If I have to assume "there goes my tire again" each time I go over one, which is how it seems, I will never be able to ride it without constantly shelling out money into it. Like many of you, this seemed like a "cheaper" option for scooters with mostly positive reviews. Only after I purchased it, did I see the reviews elsewhere vouching for what i'm saying. Not enough about these issues were mentioned in other amazon reviews. Please beware if you decide to purchase. I wish someone told me it's not worth it and just better to suck it up and spend more on a better scooter. I've had to change the battery, back tube and both wheels on it and it's running much better. Clearly what was on both scooters originally were meant to come off. I will update this if anything else comes up. I'm now fearful of what's next and no one who buys this should have that feeling. Just not worth it.
I broke my handle and even after two years, Go Trax shipped me a replacement handle in 3 days from the US, best and most pleasant customer service ever!!!!!!!!!
Also, my battery seems to not be full charging as I left the scooter in the garage during the winter (the cold kills batteries like any other batteries). Go Trax without any questions asked shipped me a free replacement battery pack. I love this brand and the customer service is excellent.
