After raising over US$ 630,000 the Segway Ninebot Electric Gokart is coming to the end of its Indiegogo crowdfunding campaign which has received funds from more than 480 backers. The red dot award-winning 2018 electric go-kart design is now available to back with early bird pledges available from US$ 1,149.

The Gokart is capable of accelerating from 0 to 12mph in seconds, “which matches or even outpaces the acceleration of many automobiles on the market that is well known for their outstanding performance” explains Segway.

The Ninebot Electric Gokart features a mechanical handbrake, and is the first gokart in the karting history that is made to drift with an equipped handbrake.
