Another hour spent behind the wheel, inching your way through your city’s clogged streets—all while imagining being home already, getting a head start on cooking dinner, spending time with your family and friends, catching up on your favorite show. Or, running late to the most important meeting of the week, stuck behind a driver who apparently wants to see just how slowly he can drive without making his car come to a complete stop. Sound familiar?
Call it the commuter’s blues. Whether you’re on your way to the boardroom or the classroom—or anywhere between—a slow, painful commute can suck the energy out of your day. That’s where the GXL Commuter Scooter comes in, from GOTRAX. Designed to help you cut through your commute safely, stylishly, and quickly, the GXL can be a gamechanger for anyone looking to cure the commuter’s blues.
Traveling 9-12 miles on a single charge—more than enough for the average commute—this electric scooter has the range. With a slew of cutting-edge features, the GXL is tailored to suit your commuting needs, no matter your resume. Let’s check out a few familiar commuters to see how the GXL can ease their commute.
The Silicon Valley Starter-Upper
For you, work means innovation, disruption, revolution—that is, if you can actually make it to the office. You love your new electric car: energy efficient, environmentally friendly, and definitely a conversation piece. Only, it turns out everyone else in Silicon Valley loves their electric car, too. So much so that the roads are as jammed as ever. On top of that, buying the latest in automotive tech means waiting for the rest of the world to catch up, including your mechanic. With the roads a mess and your car in the shop again, what’s a tech upstart to do?
Let the GXL “disrupt” your commute. You won’t have to give up your green cred: with its rechargeable battery, the GXL ticks that box. And, with its 4 battery light indicators, you’ll know when it’s time for a quick charge. The lights say you’re good-to-go, and your commute flies by—just like you fly by the cars in bumper-to-bumper traffic. But if one of those drivers sticks their bumper out your way while craning for a view of the endless traffic ahead, don’t worry. The GXL’s front and rear double braking system—featuring disc braking and a regenerative anti-lock brake system—means you can stop on a dime, safely. Plus, you’re at work early enough to snag some cold brew before it’s all gone. Nice.
The Campus Commuter Extraordinaire
We’ve all been there: you were up late (definitely studying), your alarm didn’t go off, and class is all the way across campus. You’ve got 5 minutes to get to your desk. Are you lacing up your running shoes and stretching your calves? Relax—with the GLX, you’ll zip to class in no time. With gear control, you can literally flip the GLX into high gear, which reaches a top speed of 15-18mph. You could do the math to see just how long your trip will be, but save that for class, right? Or, just check out the speedometer. Point being, it’s fast.
Once you slide into your seat before your professor has time to say “roll call,” you’re flipping your GXL safely underneath your desk. Fast, Fold, and Release—all you’ve got to do is activate a lever, and the GXL will fold itself into an easily store-able unit.
The Business Casual Boss
The downtown crunch—that’s what you’ve come to call the painful gridlock you face every morning and evening on your way to and from work. Forget driving. It’s not worth it in the city, and that goes double for sitting in a cab. You could bike, but the cyclists all seem just as frozen in their tracks, and you’re not up for sweating through your shirt before the morning meeting. With your GXL, you’ll slide through the crunch with no problem, and with shock absorbing tires, you’ll feel comfortable on a smooth ride.
The GXL’s precision accelerating and braking gives you perfect stop-start control for this busy area. You won’t have to dread the commute home, either: thanks to the GXL’s powerful LED headlight, you’ll be illuminating your own way through a quick, comfortable commute, and others on the road will see you clearly. Safe travels!
