The EV Rider is a heavy-duty folding mobility scooter, although it doesn’t come with a heavy weight. This scooter clocks in at just 42 pounds, which isn’t all that much more than some more expensive ultra-light models.
Unfortunately, the scooter did skimp a bit on the motor and battery specifications. It can only travel at a maximum of 3.8 mph and 10 miles on a single charge. That’s plenty for many users, but it does mean you’ll need to charge the battery after every use.
The scooter also doesn’t fold down to a very compact size. The seat can collapse into the base and the front of the scooter folds back, but these mechanisms alone do little to shrink the frame. You might run into trouble trying to load this scooter into the back of a small vehicle.
Why are we impressed? This scooter is built with a very comfortable seat that offers good lumbar support. The seat back isn’t adjustable, but it provides just the right amount of height to help you sit upright and reach the handlebars.
What negatives must you be aware of? The base of this scooter offers almost no ground clearance whatsoever. You are restricted to using this scooter on paved surfaces, and even small rocks can scratch the underside of the scooter.
