Rain Riding the GT Pro

IP67-rated drivetrain meets real Pacific Northwest weather.

Portland in November is the ultimate test for any electric vehicle's weather sealing. Three weeks, daily riding, constant rain. Here's what we learned.

The IP67-rated drivetrain handled everything without issue. No moisture ingress in the motor, controller, or battery compartment. The sealed connectors and internal wiring routing paid dividends — zero corrosion on any electrical contact after 21 days of continuous exposure.

Traction was the real story. The GT Pro's traction control system proved remarkably effective on wet surfaces. It intervenes early and smoothly, reducing torque without the abrupt cutoffs that characterize less sophisticated systems. Confidence in the rain was higher than expected.
