Where each one wins

Each line above is read straight from the specification: torque, weight, payload, battery and our range estimate. Nothing here is a preference, and neither bike is being recommended over the other.
What each one costs to own
Over 5 years the Juiced HyperScrambler 2 costs about 211 EUR less to own, once purchase, charging, servicing, a battery replacement where one is due, and resale are all counted.
That figure moves mostly on the battery. The Juiced HyperScrambler 2 covers about 53,227 km before its pack is due for replacement; the Juiced JetCurrent Pro, about 53,227 km. Ride less than that and the replacement never enters the sum.

Verdict
On the measured axes the Juiced HyperScrambler 2 is the better buy, and the Juiced JetCurrent Pro needs a reason of its own: a colour, a frame, a shop you trust, a price that moves. None of those are in our numbers, and all of them are legitimate.
Range here is an estimate under one reference ride, not a measurement. Yours will differ with terrain, weight, tyres and weather, which is what the range calculator is for.
