NAVEE and REV Rides teamed up to design a new electric commuter scooter that is highly water-resistant and UL-rated. The S65C may look similar to a Ninebot Max on the surface but it has wider handlebars and cartridge suspension on the front and back that make it a lot more enjoyable to ride.
The NAVEE S65C is packed full of features you don't normally see on a commuter scooter and is backed by the team at REV Rides, who provide excellent after-sales servicing.
In this review, we unbox and review the NAVEE S65C.

I just got this scooter today mainly for work commuting. After charging and tested it. I can say it’s a good option for commuter scooter. I have 20% uphill in my route to work and it handle well tho. Im on S mode when I’m going uphill and then just go back to D mode when its flat road again.

[@gogoypogi]

Every time you jump with the scooter, im getting the vibes that sooner the battery compartment will bend further causing issues

[@jameskim62]

VERY GOOD REVIEW GUYS !!!!!!!!!!!!

[@Andrew-vt4jt]

Thanks!

[@raylivengood8040]

Nice looking platform, but 36V and a 3s push start would be a hard nope.

[@steve-132]

yeah 48v and zero start would suit it perfectly

[@symbolsandsystems]

might the off-set latch on the bars, for the rear wheel hook, be off-set so that the deck when carried with one hand swings away from your thigh?

[@eBoard3R]

🤙🏼⚡⚡🤙🏼 *Should really be coloured blue with an Avatar name like Navee* 👀

[@Andrew-vt4jt]

Lol, Jimmy loves Avatar so that's the first thing that came to his mind.

[@Steve-dk3md]

It is way more comfortable than any other suspension on the market, spring or hydraulic suspension doesn't even come close. I got the NAVEE S65 (the green/gray original one).

[@HelloMyFriend_]

Hi. Can you set a limit for the maximum speed in the app? Here in Denmark scooters are only allowed to go 12 mph (20 kph)

[@Steve-dk3md]

@@HelloMyFriend_ Hello my friend, no it is set with no option to change. Am from Belgium but I've heard it's all over the same thing. Sorry to hear about the 12 mph in Denmark, here it's 15 mph.

Ciao ragazzi siete splendidi bravi 👍👍sapete come sbloccare il navee s65c?grazie

[@moses5161]

Is engwe s6 electric scooter best to buy? Thank you!

[@JaradVonNguyen]

Do you think this will be good long term?

[@greenwave819]

I'm kinda interested in a commuter escooter. Unfortunately I live in a very hilly area. The inmotion climber might work, just that the range on that is pretty limited. I may step it up and look at something more pricey!

[@RegularEscooterRider]

Hills = dual motors 👌🙃 good old Mercane wide wheel pro? You might get one one sales for under €800

[@Henduchao]

Is this a better buy vs VSETT 10+? Which handles better?

[@Tykoon]

Wish it had an LFP Battery for peace of mind.

[@gtone339]

There's also a new Xiaomi e-scooter called the Xiaomi E-scooter 4 Ultra '2023 model' that resembles the Navee S65C as well

[@haoend]

It’s a rename for North American market.

[@gtone339]

@@haoend cool

[@haoend]

@@gtone339 if you are interested in it, read the specs because one version of the s65 has geared motor, so it makes more noise. I’m only saying this because it doesn’t seem like the one in video made the geared motor noise

[@gtone339]

@@haoend Must be the rebranded Mi e-scooter 4 Ultra for the North American market

[@steve-132]

A 48V system would be ideal

[@Qu.Z.]

Does this ride better than the ninebot max G2? Better suspension?

[@meladgoat]

id go with the ninebot max g30p over both.

[@symbolsandsystems]

So which scooter with front and rear suspension weighs in less than 60lbs?

[@Andrew-vt4jt]

There's quite a few like the EMOVE Touring, Segway Max G2, Kaabo Mantis 8. These are the ones that I can think of right now but I know there are more.

[@234paka]

Isnt this basically xiaomi 4 ultra rebadged? or something is bit differnet

[@Andrew-vt4jt]

Navee is manufacturing that scooter for Xiaomi.

[@handsonham3199]

The NIU KQI3 max I think is just as good/better in some ways.

[@Andrew-vt4jt]

It's a nice scooter but there is no suspension and the clearance is really low on the KQi3 Max

[@RegularEscooterRider]

Wow, this scooter is a copy of the new Xiaomi ))) Xiaomi 4 Ultra, if I’m right :)) I’ve heard some some rumours that it is so reliable, that in 1000km literally nothing happens to it :) The difference is that here in EU, Xiaomi gets a 48v battery and the speed is limited to 25km/h :/ EU legislation 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@ElectricCommuter]

Navee manufactures the new scooters for Xiaomi. The Xiaomi 4 is also from Navee. The older ones are from Ninebot. The S65C looks very similar to the Xiaomi 4 Ultra but it doesn't have the same features. There is also the S65 with a geared motor. The Xiaomi 4 Ultra is currently being delivered in Europe. Mine is supposed to arrive on Friday.

[@reempire888]

If I were to spend $3k and under, which is the best choice? I'm looking for quality, range, hill climbing ability, and speed. Contemplating whether the Wolf, Segway GT2, or....?

[@meladgoat]

ninebot max is under 1000. thats what i got

[@raminmohandes9775]

Hello freshly charged. I live in sweden and i have 3k to spend! i want it to have seat for 2 people, Long range, high speed, and be water proof. so i can ride it the whole year without probelms. What should i get? Will be really happy and helpful if you guys give me a reply.

[@raminmohandes9775]

i would be happy if u put alternative, like 5 different or something.

[@Andrew-vt4jt]

@@raminmohandes9775 How heavy are both people put together? I haven't seen a stand up scooter with a seat that can seat two people.

[@raminmohandes9775]

@@Andrew-vt4jt Yo No it could not only be a e scooter, it can be a e bike looking like a moped, e scooter, All types of e stuff. Just want it to be Space for two, high speed, high range, and water proof. Will be really happy if u can help man, i have been looking for a thing in month!

[@Andrew-vt4jt]

@raminmohandes9775 a Niu emoped might be your best choice. They just released a NQi GTS which is sweet but it may be over $3000 where you are located. Set up to carry two people, great range, and is highly water resistant since it's designed to sit outside.

[@raminmohandes9775]

@@Andrew-vt4jt That was a great alternative, Thanks. But its was a bit pricy. I have had an eye on those E bikes looking like a moped with two seat. Do you know any of these e bikes style mopeds that goes 40mph+?

[@Krispy416]

Ninebot didn't copy Xiaomi, they manufacture Xiaomis.

[@CerealDust-nStuff]

I won’t buy a scooter unless it has a twist throttle.

[@hazimng1335]

Bruh....its an exact copy of xiaomi scooter 4 ultra😂

[@gingerdude94]

Europe's best scooter 🤥🤦....Channel devalued.

[@Frostorm777]

Bro they didn’t say that, it’s what’s on the box. SMH don’t blame Freshly Charged for that.

[@meladgoat]

ninebot max is better and a few hundred dollars cheaper.

[@Ava-cq1zi]

But this model is also a few hundred cheaper since they made this video. The price now is 699 and I have a coupon on Amazon. I have a previous model, with range of only 25 miles. But it delivered exactly as promised and I’m gonna go with this company again for my new upgrade. I don’t think you’d be disappointed if you did it too.
