Inside the G4 Ultra's 294×42mm Display: What It Can Actually Do

Most electric scooter displays are basic. They show your speed, your battery level, and maybe a trip meter. You glance at them, you look away, and you focus on the road.

The KuKirin G4 Ultra's display is different. It‘s a 294×42mm LED touchscreen that fundamentally changes how you interact with the scooter. It’s not just larger—it‘s a complete upgrade to the entire interaction logic.

This breakdown covers the hardware specs, everything you can see on the screen, how the button controls work, and the hidden functions most riders never discover.

Hardware Specs: A Wide-Format Dashboard

The G4 Ultra’s display isn‘t just bigger than previous models—it’s a different shape entirely.

Dimensions: 294mm × 42mm. This ultra-wide, low-profile format spans nearly the entire width of the handlebar center. It fits visually into the cockpit like a modern automotive dashboard.

Material: LED touchscreen display housed in an ABS instrument case. The touch functionality allows for direct interaction, while the ABS shell protects against weather and vibration.

Why the wide format matters: A traditional square display forces you to look down. A wide, low-profile display sits within your natural line of sight when looking ahead. You can read speed and battery at a glance without tilting your head downward.

The Full Display Overview

The G4 Ultra screen packs a lot of information without feeling cluttered. Here’s what you can monitor at a glance:

  • Speed — Current riding speed, prominently displayed

  • Battery Level — Remaining charge indicator

  • Mileage — Total distance and trip distance

  • Cruise Control — Indicator showing whether cruise is active

  • Riding Mode — ECO, SPORT, or RACE mode indicator

  • Start Mode — Zero-start or non-zero-start indicator

  • Light Mode — Headlight and taillight status

  • Distance Unit — Kilometers or miles

The layout is engineered for quick readability. You don‘t need to scroll through menus to check your battery or speed—it’s all visible in a single sweep.

Button Logic: How the Controls Actually Work

The G4 Ultra’s control system is where the smart dashboard really shows its depth. The buttons have different functions depending on how you press them.

The SET Button

  • Single press: Switches the speed/distance units (km/h to mph, or km to miles).

  • Press and hold: Toggles between zero-start and non-zero-start mode.

Zero-start means the motor engages as soon as you twist the throttle. Non-zero-start requires you to push off slightly before the motor engages—a safety feature for new riders or crowded areas.

The TURBO Button

  • Single press: Turns Turbo mode on or off.

Turbo mode provides an additional power boost independent of your riding mode. It‘s useful for overtaking, climbing steep grades, or accelerating out of a dangerous situation.

The MODE Button

  • Single press: Cycles through the riding modes (ECO → SPORT → RACE).

Each mode changes the power delivery and top speed. ECO maximizes range, SPORT balances power and efficiency, and RACE unlocks full performance.

The CRUISE Button

  • Single press: Turns cruise control on or off.

Cruise control maintains your current speed without holding the throttle. It’s useful on long, straight stretches but should not be used in heavy traffic.

The Multi-Function Button

This button (often integrated with the power button) has multiple layers:

  • Single press: Wakes the display if it has gone to sleep.

  • Double press: Switches riding modes (same as the MODE button).

  • Press and hold: Force-restarts the display if it freezes.

The Speed-Limit Mode Visual Feedback

Every country has different speed regulations. The G4 Ultra includes a speed-limit mode that caps the scooter at a legal limit regardless of which riding mode you’ve selected.

How to activate it: Hold a brake lever and double-press the power button.

Visual feedback: When speed-limit mode is active, a small white indicator dot lights up on the display. This confirms the limiter is engaged. To deactivate, repeat the same action.

Hidden Functions Most Riders Don’t Know

The G4 Ultra display has a few tricks that aren‘t immediately obvious.

Force restart: If the display freezes or becomes unresponsive, pressing and holding the multi-function button forces a restart. This is useful if the system glitches during a ride.

Auto-sleep: When the motor is stationary and the display is idle, it automatically shuts off after 5 minutes to preserve battery.

Gear memory: The scooter remembers your last riding mode when you power it off. You don’t have to re-select your preferred mode every time you start.

How the G4 Ultra Display Compares to Other KuKirin Models

Not all KuKirin dashboards are created equal. The G4 Ultra represents the most advanced display in the lineup.



Model Display Type Size Key Features
G4 Ultra LED touchscreen 294 × 42 mm Wide format, touch, advanced button logic
G3 Pro LCD 133 × 76 mm Standard LCD, comprehensive info
G2 Pro LED (VA screen) 118 × 73 mm Basic LED, clear layout
S1 Max LED 71 × 50 × 21.5 mm Compact, basic functions

The G4 Ultra‘s screen is significantly wider than the G3 Pro or G2 Pro. The touch functionality and multi-function button system add layers of control that simpler models don’t offer.

For riders who want advanced dashboard features without the top-tier price, the KuKirin G2 Max electric scooter offers a clear LCD display with a comfortable seated riding position.

Why the Smart Dashboard Matters

A dashboard is more than a screen. It‘s the interface between you and the machine.

When the interface is intuitive and readable at a glance, you spend less time looking down and more time looking at the road. The G4 Ultra’s wide display, clear iconography, and multi-function buttons reduce the cognitive load of checking your stats.

The speed-limit white dot, for example, is a tiny detail. But when you‘re riding in a 25km/h zone, it gives you instant confirmation that the limiter is active without requiring you to look away from traffic.
