Short answer: InMotion V11Y wins this one, 9.1/10 against 7.9/10, mainly on suspension and published protections. KingSong 16X Pro answers with weight.
What really separates them?
Near-identical batteries (1,500 Wh and 1,554 Wh), and on the day we checked the wheel with more equipment was the cheaper one: the V11Y at $1,299, the 16X Pro at $1,499. The V11Y adds 85 mm of air suspension, IPX6, a smart BMS and a slightly stronger motor. The 16X Pro's answers are 12 lb less weight and a UL certification the V11Y's page doesn't state. If you carry the wheel a lot, or need the UL paper, the KingSong makes sense. Otherwise this is one of the clearer calls on the site, at least while InMotion's sale price lasts.
Which one is for you?

- You want to spend less: $1,299 against $1,499
- Your roads are rough: 85 mm of suspension, where the 16X Pro has none

- You climb hills or carry weight: a 2,500 W motor against 2,200 W
Choose the KingSong 16X Pro if
- You lift it often: 54 lb against 66 lb

Which one has more power and battery?
InMotion V11Y: 2,500 W (7,000 W peak) motor, 1,500 Wh on a 84 V system. KingSong 16X Pro: 2,200 W (4,600 W peak) motor, 1,554 Wh on a 84 V system.
The V11Y has the stronger motor, by 300 W nominal. The 16X Pro has the bigger battery, by 54 Wh, a gap too small to feel. As for speed, the published figures are 37 mph, per InMotion for the V11Y and 37 mph, per KingSong for the 16X Pro. Those are the sellers' figures, not speeds to plan a ride around, and they are not part of our score: motor power is. For range, compare watt-hours; our electric unicycle range guide shows how to turn them into miles.
Which one rides more comfortably?
InMotion V11Y: air suspension, 85 mm of travel, on a 18 × 3 in (2.75-14) tire. KingSong 16X Pro: no suspension, on a 16 in tire.
Only the V11Y has suspension. On smooth paths you may never miss it; on rough streets it is the difference between a ride and a workout. Rider load: 265 lb for the V11Y, 265 lb for the 16X Pro, gear included.
Which one is easier to live with?
V11Y: 66 lb, trolley handle built in, kickstand; charging: 8 hours with the 2.5 A charger; accepts up to 10 A. 16X Pro: 54 lb, trolley handle built in; charging: 8.4 hours with the 2.5 A charger, 14 hours with the 1.5 A one, per KingSong.
The 16X Pro is 12 lb lighter, which matters every time stairs or a car trunk are involved. Published protections: InMotion V11Y, IPX6 and a smart BMS; KingSong 16X Pro, UL certification. A water rating we can't read on the seller's page is a rating we can't count. Whichever you pick, a helmet and wrist guards go in the same basket: see our electric unicycle safety gear guide.
