The Perfect Synthesis of the Lineup
The Fusion lives up to its name. It combines the comfortable GTR deck, the controlled power of the Hadean, and the super-powerful 200 A Diablo ESC. The result is a powerful and versatile electric skateboard that's lighter and more agile, with zero compromise on performance.
Two 3.000 W motors paired with the Diablo 200 A ESC controller deliver smooth, responsive, and progressive acceleration. Hit a top speed of 50 km/h.
12.5 kg and 648 Wh
The Fusion's deck is slightly shorter than the Diablo, improving maneuverability without sacrificing foot space. The 12S3P Samsung 50S battery (648 Wh) gives you 40 km in AT in Corsa mode with a 100 kg rider, and even more in Sport or Eco mode.
Evolve's controller offers truly optimized power management, delivering excellent power without unnecessary loss.
Super Carve 2 Trucks, a Gem
The new Super Carve 2 trucks provide precise and fluid steering. All-terrain wheels with beige sidewalls offer perfect grip. Expect a lively, ultra-playful ride, perfect for carving tight turns. This is where the Fusion truly shines.
Thanks to the Fusion's modularity, you can install the battery on a Diablo Bamboo deck or vice versa, depending on your preferences.
A Total Success
The Fusion perfectly bridges the gap between the GTR and Diablo lines, offering more fluidity, less weight, and truly impressive range. This is the electric skateboard you'll want to ride every day.

45 to 50 km/h, Perfectly Controllable
Powered by two 3.000 W motors and the Diablo's 200 A ESC, the Fusion delivers direct and perfectly controllable acceleration. Expect a top speed between 45 and 50 km/h, depending on your setup.
- Corsa Mode: Full power, maximum thrills
- Sport Mode: Power/range compromise
- Eco Mode: perfect for your daily commute.
Lively, responsive, yet stable.
The Super Carve 2 trucks and shorter deck deliver an incredibly agile, precise, and fun carving experience. You'll find a lively, responsive, yet stable feel on city streets, perfect for tight turns.
Weighing in at 11.3 to 12.5 kg, the Fusion is significantly lighter and more maneuverable than the Diablo. You can easily carry it with one hand, stash it in a trunk, or take it on public transport.
30 to 50 km depending on your setup.
The Samsung 50S 12S3P battery (648 Wh) provides impressive range. Expect 30 to 40 km for all-terrain aggressive riding, and up to 50 km on the street. Its advanced power management ensures stable power output, even during extended sessions.

A true deck.
What Average Eskate loves about the Fusion is its commitment to the pure spirit of skateboarding. This is a true deck that carves, slides, and reacts with instinctive, balanced, and natural precision. You'll truly feel the board under your feet.
Power is smoothly and stably controlled up to 42-43 km/h. It's perfect for urban riding or epic carving sessions.
Light, compact, hassle-free.
It's light and compact, so you can easily carry it with one hand and go up stairs without a problem. Compared to a Diablo or a Hadean, it's a night and day difference. Running errands or popping into a store in the city is effortlessly easy.
Expect a real-world range of 37 to 39 km when riding hard. The charge time is 4 hours, with no fast charge option available, which is an identified weakness.
An aesthetic masterpiece.
The wood, the finishes, the gold trucks, and the beige wheels are all perfectly matched. The deck evokes high-end wooden furniture, and the logo engraved in the wood adds a premium touch. This is the kind of board you'll want to display at home.
For me, the Fusion is a return to the fundamentals, but in a 2025 version.

The best GTR in Evolve history.
SuperCarve 2: the best trucks on the market.
ESK8UNITY considers SuperCarve 2 trucks to be the best double kingpin trucks currently on the market. They deliver precise, stable, and ultra-smooth carving. They feature high-precision gold ceramic bearings and integrated speed rings.
The deck measures 95.5 cm x 24 cm, constructed with 3 layers of bamboo and 2 layers of fiberglass. It weighs 12.5 kg and supports a maximum load of 120 kg.
A boosted GTR.
You'll feel like you're riding a boosted GTR, with a thinner deck, a flexible flex that's not too soft, and incredibly responsive trucks. Carving is crisp, agile, and highly intuitive. It offers a more playful, precise ride with excellent comfort underfoot.
46 km AT, 56 km street.
In real-world conditions, expect 46 km in AT (Race mode, 7-inch tires, summer) and 56 km in street (97 mm wheels). The software maximizes every watt. This ensures no power is wasted.
Top speed reaches 45 km/h on a slight downhill. Braking is sharp, progressive, and reassuring, even at 24 km/h. Eco mode offers a smooth acceleration up to 25 km/h.
Phaze Remote and customization
The Phaze remote control features a vibrant color screen. It delivers precise control, progressive braking, and lets you customize speed, ride modes, and lights. The Evolve mobile app provides full diagnostics and firmware updates.
At 2.099 euros, the price is fully justified by the quality of the components: trucks, ESC, remote control, and after-sales support based in Pornichet.
