Electric scooters are a simple and efficient way to get where you need to go. 10000w scooter
With a list price of $900, GoTrax GMax Ultra is the company's top-of-the-line commuter scooter. It boasts a 350-watt motor and a 36-volt, 17.5-aH LG lithium-ion battery. Its 10-inch air-filled tires made rides more comfortable than expected considering it doesn't have a suspension. It took approximately four to five hours to charge.
The scooter is a kick-and-go, meaning you kick to take off and then use the well-placed thumb throttle on the right side of the handlebar to keep moving. It can hit a top speed of 20 mph and, according to GoTrax, you can get about 45 miles of travel between charges. In real-world usage, it was about half of that, which is still pretty good. This also depends on the rider's size, hills and wind conditions. It supports riders up to 220 pounds.
On the left side of the handlebars is the power button, as well as plus and minus buttons. Hold the power button for three seconds to turn the scooter on and off. By default, the scooter requires a three-digit passcode to turn on that is entered using the plus-minus buttons and the power button to confirm. This won't stop someone from pushing the scooter, but the passcode along with a built-in stainless-steel cable and four-digit combination lock are nice to have for quickly locking it up. Plus, if you try to turn it on and roll it, the motors will slow its movement while making a beeping sound until the passcode is entered.
Holding the minus button puts the scooter in walk mode. This gives you a 3-mph power assist while you walk the scooter. Another nice feature: if the throttle is held for 10 seconds it enters cruise control where the scooter will maintain its speed until the brakes or throttle are touched. It can also be used to change gears when combined with the plus button.
The build quality of the scooter is very good and it weighs 46 pounds. I exceed the 220-pound limit and it moved effortlessly without any creaking underneath me -- at least on level ground. Uphill was another story, though it performed admirably uphill with someone under the weight limit.
The rear disc brake worked great regardless of the rider's weight. A rear brake light illuminates when engaged and there's an LED headlight with a reflector beneath it. The LED display on the scooter is clear and visible in direct sunlight. It provides information on current speed, battery level and total distance traveled. The scooter is rear-wheel drive; when riding, most of the weight is in the rear and this helps maintain traction. It also makes the front lighter when lifting on or off a curb.
The scooter's design is clean and sleek, made from aluminum alloy A606 and has an IPX4 rating, which means you're safe from splashing water. It easily folded down for transport and, since the handlebars lock from the side of the deck, it's impossible for the latch to come loose while carrying. When upright, the handlebars are at a perfect height. I didn't feel hunched over them or pressure on my palms, and the steering column is steady and responsive.
The InMotion S1 is an exceptionally comfortable last-mile scooter. Coming in at $699, this responsive scooter has front and rear suspension, 10-inch puncture-proof pneumatic tubeless tires and a handlebar height of 42 inches so there's less hunching over when you ride. It's powered by a single 500-watt brushless rear-wheel motor and can get up to speeds of 18.6 mph. The rear motor positioning is great for minimizing some of the weight in the front when lifting on or off of a curb.
If you are on the heavier side, the S1 gets noticeably slower on inclines. InMotion rated the scooter to travel 59 miles before needing a charge. We found that to be closer to 20 to 25 miles from our testing; this always depends on travel speeds, rider size, and the terrain.
The S1 ships with a single 63-volt charger and takes about seven hours to replenish the 675Wh battery. However, with two charge ports on the S1, that time can be cut in half with a second charger. One minor complaint: The small circular covers for the charge ports can be troublesome to close. It's extremely important to keep them covered when not charging to keep moisture out. The S1 has a dust and water rating of IP55 and the battery IP67.
The S1 has a simple and clean design minimizing the multiple buttons you find on other scooters. It has a single multi-function button: long-press to power on/off, quick press to toggle the lights and double press to switch between eco, standard and sport modes. The LCD is bright enough to see in sunlight, and the illuminating blue ring around it gives it a futuristic look. The scooter has a durable industrial feel, somewhat like a rental. It weighs 53 pounds and can support riders up to 300 pounds, which is surprising for a scooter of this size; most only support up to 220 pounds. It can also be folded down for carrying or storage.
For safety, the S1 comes with front and rear lights. The rear light will come on when the lights are off, and the brakes are applied and will brighten when on. The deck of the S1 has the same blue illumination as the ring around the display. The lights illuminate in the direction the handlebars are turned or, when the deck is leaning left or right, the side will flash in red like a turn signal. The lights are indicated on the display along with ride mode, battery level in bars and speed.
There's a bell, too, on the right side of the handlebar, above the throttle. It's an odd placement, but there's really nowhere else on the left for it. Lastly, something you don't see on a lot of scooters are side reflectors. With the deck lights on, the need is kind of moot, but it's good to have when the lights are off.
The S1 also has an iOS and Android app that connects via Bluetooth where you can tweak some of the settings along with being able to turn the lights on and off and power the scooter off. You can also see the battery percentage travel range. There's even a social aspect where you can post photos and follow other riders.
The Swagger 5 Boost is a welcomed upgrade to its predecessor, the Swagger 5 Elite, and replaces it on our list of best scooters.
The motor is more powerful -- going from 250 to 300 watts -- but keeps its competitive price.
The Boost has a solid build and feel, designed to support riders up to 320 pounds while weighing just 26 pounds itself – great for walk-up apartments or getting on and off mass transit. It easily folds and unfolds with a single locking latch. The rated travel distance is 12 miles; expect this number to vary due to rider size, speed traveling, winds and terrain. That's not far but fine for last-mile commutes or riding to classes, and it charges in under 4 hours.
There are three ride modes to choose from and even cruise control, though you'll need to connect a phone to the Boost via Bluetooth and use an iOS or Android app to toggle it on and off. The scooter has a rear mechanical disc brake, a bell and front and rear lights for safety and Swagtron even went so far as to include a cup holder.
The ride on its two 8.5-inch honeycomb puncture-proof tires is decent, especially considering the lack of a suspension. Shocks would add to the weight and cost, though. The scooter's top speed is 18 mph, dependent on rider size. Given the suggested user age of 12 years and up, larger, heavier riders might not reach that speed, particularly on inclines. The scooter's deck is pretty narrow, making it easier to carry but more difficult for riders with large feet to stand comfortably. The Boost has an IPX4 rating meaning it can survive a splash but not be submerged in water.
For small budgets and distances, this is the scooter for you.
So many electric scooters force riders to make compromises. A lightweight scooter usually means a smaller battery that results in slower speeds and shorter travel distances. Couple that with the 5 or 6 hours it takes to recharge and that makes it hard to use on a continuous basis.
Enter the E-Twow GT SE, a 29-pound scooter with a top speed of 25 mph that can charge up to 80% in 2.5 hours. The scooter supports riders up to 220 pounds with its 700-watt motor powered by a 504Wh Samsung battery. During testing, it was able to travel about 15 miles before needing a charge. That's not far off from the company's 23-mile claim. Travel distances vary depending on rider size, style of riding, hills and wind conditions.
The scooter is easy to fold down and has collapsible handlebars making its storage footprint very small. The handlebar height is adjustable for shorter or taller riders. Additionally, it has a spring in the deck and a small suspension in the front to ease some bumps out.
The E-Twow GT SE is equipped with a headlight, electric horn, and three methods of breaking: the regenerative motor, physical rear disc brake, and a rear foot spoiler brake. There's an app for iOS and Android too.
Connect to the scooter's built-in Bluetooth and the mobile app displays the speedometer and battery info and has the ability to toggle the lights on and off. There's also an alarm if the scooter is moved; along with making noise, it will use the motor to slow its movement if someone tries riding off on it.
It's not the flashiest scooter I've seen but is by far the best-performing lightweight scooter I've tested. It's one of the most impressive ultraportable last-mile scooters you'll find. Be sure to activate the instant coupon for $100 off if you're purchasing through Amazon.
Premium scooter manufacturer Unagi adds new color customization options and a dual 250-watt motor to this update to last year's E450 model, our previous pick for the best all-around electric scooter. Why call this one the E500? Because that's the new total motor output wattage.
Due to the dual 250-watt motors, the E500 required a slightly larger battery (28.8 volts) than the E450 to maintain the same travel distance. It makes the carbon fiber and aluminum body about 2 pounds heavier, at just a hair under 27 pounds.
The display is bright and easy to see in sunlight and instead of sticking a bell on the scooter, they've put on an electric horn that's loud enough to be heard through a closed car window.
The electric scooter can support riders up to 270 pounds, with a top speed of 18 mph and a travel distance of 15 miles. To stop the scooter just use the ABS electric brake or put a little pressure on the rear spoiler brake for those steep hills.
For a closer look at this electric scooter, check out our gallery of the Unagi E500.

The Segway Max is a reliable electric scooter that can take you very far. It's rated to go 40 miles on a full charge (if you're driving slower and on flat ground), which is a bold claim by Segway. In real-world conditions, I was able to go 7 miles on this electric vehicle (my daily commute before working from home) at top speed using 45% of the battery. That's still pretty good considering the scooter itself is rather hefty, weighing 41 pounds, and I frequently got it up to 18 mph.
The air-filled tires make for a more comfortable ride than the ES series from Segway. One feature I really appreciated was the charging cable. It's a generic power cord with no brick, making it easy to carry around or replace. The 551-watt-hour battery can be fully charged in six hours.
To stop, electric kick scooter riders can just use the handbrake. There's also a bell built into the handlebar to alert pedestrians you're coming. And if you've got big feet, like I do, you'll love the long riding deck, which gave me plenty of room to get comfortable.
See our Segway Ninebot KickScooter Max gallery.
The Eagle One makes this list because Varla found a way to build a quality electric scooter with similar specs to many currently on the market, while keeping the price competitive. And it even comes with some cool accessories.
The 77-pound scooter rolls on 10-inch pneumatic tires with dual 1,000-watt brushless motors powered by a big 52-volt, 18.2Ah lithium-Ion battery. Rated top speed: 40 mph. I was only able to get up to about 33 mph but my lighter girlfriend hopped on and hit 37 mph. The Eagle One supports a total weight of 330 pounds but is recommended for riders up to 265 pounds.
On a single charge you can get up to 40 miles of travel, but I only reached about half of that. I ride aggressively, though, switching between dual- and single-motor modes and staying in its top gear. Staying with a single motor and at slower speeds will always get you farther, but I like a little speed. The scooter model can be charged in about eight hours with a single charger and just under five hours connected to a second charger.
There's a lot of common ground between the Varla Eagle One and its high-end competition. It has three gears, single- or dual-motor modes and an Eco button to help conserve battery. You'll also find dual-spring suspension, a wide deck with front and rear lights and dual hydraulic brakes that outperform their wired counterparts and require less maintenance. It even has a USB port in the odometer to charge your phone while you ride.
Varla also throws in some extra gear like three additional grip tapes with different designs (I'm currently using one with a flaming skull), a spare inner tube, wrist guards and elbow and knee pads. All you need is a helmet and you're ready to ride.
The Apollo Ghost is a great scooter for both beginners and long-time riders. With dual 800-watt motors, beginners can start off slowly using just one for smoother, softer acceleration. Once you get a feel for it, you can turn on the second motor for 1,600 watts of power and more aggressive performance.
The Ghost feels quick and nimble due to its slightly smaller size and its 10-inch pneumatic tires. It also has front and rear spring suspension, which allows the scooter to ride smoothly even on bumpy surfaces. It was one of the only scooters I've tested that was fast enough for me but could be dialed back for my 12-year-old son to ride and chic enough for my girlfriend. The deck was also long enough to take my 7-year-old daughter around with me on errands.
The scooter is solid, mostly constructed of forged aluminum, and alone weighs 64 pounds. While that's only 13 pounds lighter than the 77-pound higher-end Apollo Pro, believe me, it makes a difference when carrying it for any period. The handlebars and steering tube are collapsible making it easy to transport. I especially like the high handlebars that make it more comfortable for taller riders like myself and the locking ergonomic grips are a nice addition as well.
Riders up to 300 pounds are supported and the scooter can hit a top speed of 34 mph. There are three gear modes along with an Eco mode. Depending on the rider size, terrain and setting preference, the Ghost can run for up to 39 miles on a full charge. I was able to get around 20-plus miles going from single to dual-motor mode. The scooter's 52-volt, 18.2aH battery can be charged in about eight to 10 hours. There is an option to cut charge time down with a single fast charger or using two standard ones. The Scooter itself has dual charging ports.
The model I tested had mechanical disc brakes, but there is a hydraulic-brake version available for $1,799. The Ghost has lights in the front and rear of the deck and the rear lights flash when braking. They help at night, but at this level I would like to see an actual headlight up near the handlebars. (For models that don't have a headlight, I use a Blackburn Countdown 1600 light so I can see more of the road ahead and I'm more visible to drivers.) The Ghost does have a blue light underneath which helps some with visibility and looks cool, too. It also ships with a bell to warn pedestrians, but it doesn't quite cut it in the city where a horn is almost a necessity.
A display next to the finger throttle shows battery level, current speed, the gear you're in and distance traveled. It's visible in direct sunlight and even has a USB port to charge a mobile device or GoPro. There is also a voltage display to help monitor the health of the battery. The Ghost has a key ignition and spots to attach a lock on the frame for added security when running errands. Also, while I wouldn't leave it out in the rain, the Ghost has an IP54 rating so some splashing isn't a problem. Plus, it has small front and rear fenders to keep you clean.
Apollo provides free shipping in the continental US and Canada. A Canadian company with multiple service centers across the US, it backs its products with a one-year warranty. And if for whatever reason you need to call it, you can speak with a real live person.
There's a lot to like here. I even like the kickstand placement in the center of the deck, which is more convenient when you step off rather than at the back.

There's something addictive about riding around town without having to use your hands for support and simply hopping on and off your ride. That's the experience you get with the InMotion V10F , a simple and reliable piece of transportation tech that's a small, fast and easy to store electric vehicle.
The V10F is an electric unicycle that packs a lot in its 45-pound frame. It has a 2,000-watt motor powered by a 960Wh battery that can move you and its 16-inch wheel up to 25 mph (I was able to hit 24 mph in my testing). It's rated for travel distances up to 60 miles on a single charge; it takes about eight hours to fill the battery. I got about half that distance due to my large frame and need for speed. It supports rider weight of up to 260 pounds.
The unicycle is designed to self-balance forward and back while the rider is responsible for the side to side. Once you get a little momentum, the side to side is a breeze. It's easier to learn than you might think. If you hold onto something (such as a handrail), you can then slowly go back and forth just a few inches to get a feel for its responsiveness and what it takes to keep it balanced. There are plenty of videos online, too, that can show how to mount and dismount along with other tips and tricks.
When I started riding, I let some air pressure out of the tire so it wouldn't accelerate too fast. This makes turning a tad more difficult, so once you get the hang of it, you'll want to top off. I was zipping around in about 30 minutes.
On some inclines, it lacked the torque needed to take off from a standstill position, but when I had some momentum it was no problem. The V10F even performed well in the rain. I wouldn't submerge it in water but getting caught in the rain every now and then won't damage the device, which has an IP55 rating. The footpads have a good grip to them and are a nice size even for my size 12 shoes.
The V10F has a built-in Bluetooth connection that allows you to connect to it through an iOS or Android app. With it you can honk the horn, toggle the head and tail lights on and off, see your current speed, adjust the top speed, see the total distance traveled, the motherboard temperature and more. There's also a social aspect that lets you locate other riders to share images and comments.
Two nice extras: The V10F has sidelights that can be set to flash or pulse so people can see you coming, and the internal speaker lets you play your favorite tunes from your phone, making riding around safer than using headphones. But as always, you should wear a helmet at the very least.
The compact Geneinno S2 scooter is built for use in the ocean, lakes and in pools: Its 350-watt brushless motors can propel you through the water at up to 2.7 mph. It might not be a top e scooter speed demon, but its 97 watt-hour battery delivers approximately 45 minutes of use, and can take you down to depths up to 98 feet. Its included magnetic charger takes about two hours to top the battery off.
The S2 works with an iOS and Android app -- you connect to your phone via Bluetooth -- to track dives and has parental controls so the little ones can use it, too. I could easily see this being used to help kids learn to swim or just get them used to the water.
Also, while the scooter is designed to be used with two hands, you can switch to a one-hand mode. There is a camera mount at the front of the device to attach a GoPro or light. The scooter floats on its own in case you need to let go for a second, and its bright orange color is easy to spot.
The Geneinno S2 may not be the fastest or most powerful water scooter, but the lightweight electric scooter weighs only 5.9 pounds and fits in a backpack, making it a good pick for flights to vacation getaways.
Watch Geneinno's video of the S2 in action.
The Levy Electric Scooter slides into this list due to its price-to-practicality ratio. An electric lightweight scooter that can hit 18 mph, costs around $500, weighs just under 30 pounds and has a removable battery is a pretty good all-around deal. Levy also has scooters available for rent through its iOS and Android app.
The Levy has air-filled tires that make for a comfortable ride. The battery is located in the steering tube, unlike a lot of other scooters, so you get some body flexibility similar to a longboard for those bumpy roads. I really appreciate that the battery is removable as well. Anyone with a yard or stairs can leave the e-scooter locked, and remove the battery to take inside to charge.
The Levy lightweight scooter is rated to travel about 15 miles on a full charge but that's not at top speed. I would say most riders would get realistically about 7 to 10 miles. But because it's removable, you can easily buy a second battery and carry it with you.
See our gallery of the Levy Electric Scooter.
Whether you're a commuter headed to work, a student running to class or anyone else who wants to have a fun time while zipping from point A to B, an electric scooter is a great way to go. They're convenient, speedy and eco-friendly. And I can tell you from first-hand experience, they're a lot cheaper to repair than a car.
After testing and riding many models for miles and miles, I think the best overall electric scooter for most people is the $1,399 Emove Cruiser . It's great for long trips and isn't so fast that it's intimidating for beginners.
But that's too expensive for most people. Scooters can cost from a few hundred dollars to a few thousand. Our top budget recommendation is the Swagtron Swagger 5 Boost , which has a lower top speed and a less powerful 300-watt motor, but costs less than $400.
Some are last-mile scooters, smaller and built for short distances at slower speeds but easier to carry and store. Larger scooters handle bumps better and can travel farther and at higher speeds. The drawback is that they're not ideal for carrying and are generally more expensive.
Before purchasing, consider the distance you need to travel and the total weight you'll be carrying (including yourself). The environment you'll be riding in – hills, flat roads, wet terrain -- matters too. (Some scooters have water-resistance or IP ratings , and we've included them below.)
Not all scooters are created equal. The Emove Cruiser makes this abundantly clear. One of my first times riding this e-scooter I kept looking at the battery indicator expecting it to move; it didn't move an inch for miles. I'm a heavy guy and I'm also heavy on the throttle, but I've learned to ease off of it if I want to make it home. That's not the case with the Emove electric scooter -- it just keeps going even with heavy rider weight.
Keep in mind that these batteries can only be charged so many times before they no longer perform at an optimal level. That means the less you charge your device, the longer the e scooter battery will perform at its peak. That alone was more than enough for this scooter to make the list, but that's not all.
The Emove Cruiser has a wide deck, making it easy to stand in a staggered stance or side by side. It can support riders up to 352 pounds, hits a top speed of 25 mph and can travel approximately 60 miles on a full charge. The adult electric scooter takes about 8 to 12 hours to fully charge. It has 10-inch pneumatic tubeless car-grade tires, front dual suspension and rear air-shock suspension, all of which makes for a smooth ride. The acceleration is smooth enough that you can take off with one hand, though I wouldn't recommend it. The takeoff can also be adjusted for a more aggressive start if you want.
The scooter has a single-hinge, fold-down knob along with collapsible handlebars, which makes it convenient for storage. It weighs 52 pounds -- most of it battery -- so it's not the lightest. A key is needed for ignition and there are front and rear lights along with independent lights on the deck for added safety. It even goes a step further with an electric horn and signal lights. The signals aren't as visible during the day but are still a welcome addition.
Another useful design feature: The Emove has an IPX6 rating so you don't have to worry if you get caught in the rain. It also has fenders long enough to keep you dry when rolling over wet surfaces. And right now it's available for $100 off the usual price.
The Apollo City performs, rides and looks better than its predecessor. It has a single suspension spring in the front and two in the rear, paired with self-healing 10-inch tires letting the City hold its own on the bumpiest of streets.
There are two models: the $1,399 Apollo City, which has a single 500-watt rear motor with a top speed of 27 mph; and the $1,699 Apollo Pro, which has front and rear 500-watt motors giving it a top speed of 32 mph.
The scooters can support riders up to 265 pounds. The City weighs 57 pounds (26 kg), and the City Pro is 65 pounds (29.5 kg). Both are available for preorder now and will start shipping this month.
Both City models have three riding modes: Eco, Comfort and Sport. A companion app for iOS and Android also allows riders to control scooter settings such as top speed, park mode, run diagnostics and more.
For more details, check out our hands-on test of the Apollo City.
The Dualtron Storm is not a last-mile electric scooter, it's a leave-your-car-at-home product. From the first moment I stepped on it to more than 1,500 miles later, it still impresses me with its power. Capable of 50-plus miles per hour and able to hit 40mph in its power-saving Eco mode, this scooter does not disappoint.
The Storm can support riders up to 330 pounds and when I say "support" I mean both the build and the motors. A lot of products claim to support certain weights but performance generally takes a hard hit when they're pushed close to the edge. That is not the case with the Storm and its dual 1,500-watt hub motors.
The scooter is rated to travel 80 miles on a full charge, and I think this is possible for disciplined riders that maintain slow speeds (15 to 25 mph), depending on rider frame and terrain. Its big battery can take up to 19 hours to top off with the standard charger. But the company does offer a fast charger that can do it in under 7 hours. This electric scooter uses a lithium-ion battery pack of 72 volts, with a battery capacity of 31.5 amps (3,024Wh) and it has two charging ports for faster charging.
The Storm scooter model has a wide deck, rear signal lights, a horn and deck lights that can be customized via the supplied remote. All the lights make it very visible in low-light conditions, which is good because scooters can be tough to spot in traffic. Two Nutt hydraulic 160mm disc brakes are used to bring this hefty scooter and its 11-inch tubeless tires to a stop fast. And while it might be big, the handlebars and stem can be folded down, making it small enough to fit in a car trunk. Dualtron Strom is the best for experienced riders and if you are a beginner you can go for Dualtron Thunder.
The price is as substantial as the scooter itself, but you get a great riding experience in return. You're buying into a great community, too, that is good for sharing tips, customizations and meet-ups for all riders.
Read our Dualtron Storm hands-on.
The Onewheel Pint is roughly half the price of the bigger Onewheel Plus XR. It weighs 26 pounds and supports riders of up to 250 pounds. The Pint can travel six to eight miles on a full battery charge with the motor allowing a top speed of 16 mph. It's more maneuverable than any previous Onewheel and most other rideables. It handles inclines with ease and sports rear and front lights for night riding. The board is operated by shifting your weight forward and back to move forward and back, and heel to toe to steer. Once you get the hang of it, it's like riding a skateboard, and you'll be tempted to pull off some tricks (which we do not officially endorse).
Read our Onewheel Pint hands-on.
The 2019 WideWheel made our list and it was no surprise that the 2020 WideWheel Pro made it too, nor that it's still here. Living in New York, I see all types of scooters but none more than the commuter scooter, WideWheel. It's a beast of an electric scooter and its performance-to-price ratio is hard to beat.
Improvements can be found all over. For starters, it did away with the LED indicator lights and put in a full display that shows battery level, current speed and riding mode. In addition, they've upgraded the headlight for better visibility at night and added more comfortable ergonomic hand grips.
The Pro motorized scooter still sports dual 500-watt motors but can now hit a top speed of 26 mph and it has an upgraded lithium-ion battery to help out. There are a lot of scooters on the market that can hit around 25 mph but the WideWheel gets up to speed faster. This scooter just wants to take off and is why I don't recommend it for beginners. The company did, however, add a front disc brake to help bring this beast to a stop. It has two riding modes, Eco and Power, and an approximate travel distance of 20 miles.
The new WideWheel Pro comes with or without a key ignition switch. It feels more solid than the 2019 model -- from the steering tube to the deck and handlebars. Both the handlebars and steering tube still fold down for transport or storage. The Pro weighs 54 pounds and supports riders up to 220 pounds.
Another feature that may get overlooked in the Pro is that it comes with a spring suspension but with limited travel. True to its name, the 3.9-inch wide wheels make for some serious traction on dry surfaces. The tires aren't air-filled (or comfortable), but the upside is the never-flat foam-filled tires won't leave you stranded. Trust me, it's no fun pushing a heavy scooter if the wheels let you down.
The WideWheel Pro is a powerful and stunning scooter. And as a guy that exceeds its weight limit, I was impressed with its torque and ability to get me to top speed.
See our gallery of the Mercane WideWheel Pro.
We update this list regularly, and below are answers to some of the most common electric scooter questions.
Most models are what we'd call "last-mile" scooters -- they're for short trips and rarely have suspensions. They have a smaller deck and wheels and can go from 15 to 25 mph depending on the model. Some larger scooters have bigger wheels, bigger batteries and shocks, and can go more than 40 mph.
No, but note that applies to electric scooters, not mopeds. The rule is that if it has a VIN, it has to be registered and you need a driver's license (depending on what state you live in). Electric scooters can be used on bike paths but can not exceed local speed limits. For example, in New York, that's 15 mph.
A last-mile scooter is an electric scooter designed for short-distance transportation, typically covering the "last mile" of a person's journey. It refers to the final leg of a trip, such as commuting from a train station to an office or navigating through crowded urban areas. Last mile scooters are lightweight, portable and often foldable, allowing users to easily carry them when not in use. They are popular for their convenience, eco-friendliness, and ability to navigate congested city streets quickly.
electric off road scooter Scooters are easier to store and easier to bring on a bus or train. Last-mile scooters tend to weigh around 26 to 40 pounds, and with the collapsible handle, they're much easier to tote around. For example, here in NYC, many establishments will let you bring a scooter inside, whereas no bicycles are allowed.
