Design and construction
The Smartgyro Crossover X2 Pro arrives with a design that screams durability. Its aluminum chassis, along with 10-inch tires prepared for all types of terrain, gave me the first impression that this scooter is made to last. Weighing in at almost 30kg, it is not the lightest on the market, but this translates into stability and a feeling of security while driving, with a wide platform where both feet can be placed in parallel, although ideally one after the other, to maintain much better stability both during braking and acceleration.
Technical Specifications

Driving experience
When I turned on the Smartgyro Crossover X2 Pro, its LCD panel offered me all the necessary information at a glance. It is worth noting that there is a button to activate the second engine, of the front axle, which will leave us with our mouths open if we are not prepared, and even some scare which pushes us back from inertia. With only the rear motor connected, acceleration is smooth but firm, and in a matter of seconds, 25 km/h, the maximum speed allowed, is reached.
The suspension is one of the most notable features, with up to 6 shock absorbers (4 front and 2 rear) absorbing the bumps and irregularities of the road with an efficiency that I had not experienced in other models. tubeless tires They also allow for slight cushioning of bumps.
The real test came when I ventured off the asphalt. The X2 Pro handles uneven terrain with surprising grace, thanks to its all-terrain tires and powerful engine. Even on steep climbs, The scooter did not lose momentum -can do anything-, proof of the power that its double motor of up to 2400W can deploy and that always maintains a constant speed on any slope. Of course, if we use this double motor, we travel on many slopes and we go at full power always, the autonomy can be reduced even by half.
Safety and handling
With power comes responsibility, and the Smartgyro Crossover X2 Pro is equipped with a disc brake system which gave me confidence to stop even in emergency situations. It also has turn signals on the sides of the deck, which are conveniently activated from the handlebars and the front and rear LED lights are bright and visible, a crucial aspect for night trips, although I always have them on, remember that the important thing is not only to see, but to be seen..
After a week with the Smartgyro Crossover X2 Pro I have been truly amazed. It's not just the power or the range; it's the way this scooter handles in different environments that makes it stand out. It's an investment for those looking for a reliable, versatile and stylish means of transport, where the terrain or orography is not a problem.
Another notable feature is its folding capacity, both the main mast and the handlebar grips, so although it is heavy, It is very convenient to transport, store or even keep in the car. to enjoy a walk in the countryside/mountain, and I can tell you this from experience.
This model is no longer sold, but the new version is called Dual Max Crossover at a price from 899 euros, with DGT certificate and identification plate that meets the requirements of the new traffic regulations.
