Used and new electric scooters
An electric scooter is the most compact way to shorten your commute: it folds, fits under your desk and charges from any socket. You'll find light urban models, long-range scooters for longer trips and off-road models with dual motors, suspension and big wheels.
What to check on a used electric scooter
- the battery: voltage, capacity and how many kilometres it does on a charge now
- the mileage on the display and whether the motor makes noises
- the folding mechanism and the handlebar stem, which shouldn't have any play
- the brakes (disc, drum or electric) and the tyres, solid or with inner tubes
- the maximum rider weight and whether it has front and rear lights
