Travel Scooter
Travel scooters have been designed to be extremely lightweight. Some fold, while others disassemble into multiple pieces that are easy to handle.
Our lightweight mobility scooters can navigate cobblestone roads as well as climb an 8% slope. They also have wider front tires to provide better performance on rough terrain. Some models come with a rear-mounted hitch that can be used for carrying baskets or boxes.
Lightweight
Travel scooters are light and easy to transport. This is why they are perfect for anyone who needs to travel, whether via car or airplane. They can be easily stowed in the trunk of a vehicle or checked as baggage on a plane.
Our ultra-lightweight scooters utilize TIG-welded, heat-treated, aircraft-grade 7005 aluminum for the frames and other parts. This type of welding produces welds that are stronger, more durable and more pleasing to the eye than the standard MIG welds found in virtually all other mobility scooters made today. As a result, the frame of our lightest scooter weighs just half of the weight of the competitors. This means that you can carry your scooter with greater comfort over larger distances and on more challenging terrain.
Our scooters are also constructed so that the rider's body weight is positioned over the drivewheel. This prevents front-wheel-driven scooters to spin on uneven or sloped surfaces. The result is a much more smooth ride, and a significant reduction in the cost of repairs that are required for front-wheel damage.
Another benefit of our ultra-lightweight mobility scooters is their rubber tires that are solid. They are more durable than the pneumatic (air) tires that are found on most scooters and are easier to navigate over rough or unpaved roads. The solid rubber is a lot more quiet than pneumatic tires and does not catch or snag on obstacles.
When you select the right mobility scooter for your needs, it is important to consider the weight of the scooter once it is assembled, including battery. Use our filters at the top of the page to filter products by specifications, for example "heaviest pieces" which specifies combined weight of the chair and battery pack.
Our scooters use the very modern lithium-ion batteries, which are extremely compact and lightweight. They also have a high-impact case with a UL 94-5VB flame rating to ensure your safety. These batteries are built to last and are constructed entirely of Panasonic cells. The batteries can be easily disassembled to transport them or make storage easier, if required.
Easy to Fold
Travel scooters fold into a compact size to fit inside the trunk of your car or SUV. Some can even be disassembled into smaller pieces, making transportation easier.
