Travel Scooter
Travel scooters are designed to be highly transportable. Some fold down, while others break into multiple easy-to-handle pieces.
Our lightweight mobility scooters can climb an 8% incline and traverse cobblestone streets. They also have wider front tires for better performance on rough terrain. Some models have a hitch that is mounted at the rear for carrying boxes or baskets.
Lightweight
The lightweight structure of travel scooters makes them simple to carry and lift. They are ideal for anyone who has to travel by car or plane. They can be easily stored in the trunk of a car or checked as baggage on a plane.
Our ultra-lightweight Scooters make use of aluminum that has been treated with heat and then TIG-welded for the frames and other parts. This type of welding produces stronger, cleaner welds that are more aesthetically pleasing in comparison to the standard MIG welds that are commonly found in mobility scooters today. The frame of our lightest mobility scooter weighs half as much as the competition. This allows you to transport your scooter for longer distances and on more difficult terrains.
Additionally our scooters are constructed with the rider's weight positioned over the drive wheel. This reduces the tendency of front-wheel-drive scooters to spin on inclines or uneven surfaces. The result is a more smooth ride, and a significant reduction in the expensive repairs that are required for front-wheel damage.
Another benefit of our ultra-lightweight mobility scooters is their solid rubber tires. They are more durable than the pneumatic (air) tires on most scooters and are much easier to navigate on rough or unpaved roads. Rubber tires that are solid are quieter than pneumatics and don't get caught on obstacles.
It is important to consider the total weight of a mobility scooter, including the battery, when choosing the best one for your needs. Use our filters at top of the page to sort products by specifications, such as "heaviest pieces" which defines the combined weight of chair and battery pack.
Our scooters are powered by the modern lithium-ion batteries that are extremely compact and lightweight. The scooters also come with a high-impact, flame-rated case with a flame rating of UL944-5VB. These batteries are designed to last and are made from 100% Panasonic cells. The batteries can be quickly removed for transportation or to facilitate storage when required.
Easy to Fold
Travel scooters fold easily and can be tucked away in the trunk of your car, van or SUV. They can even be disassembled into smaller pieces to make it easier to transport. They are ideal for travel on planes where IATA baggage regulations on dimensions of the suitcase are in place. You can purchase a scooter case which will shield your folding mobility chair from scratches and moisture while in transit.
You can put your scooter in the garage, basement, or attic when it's not being used. If you don't have access to these places an extra bedroom or closet is sufficient.

It is also recommended to not store your scooter in extreme temperatures, because high temperatures can harm the battery and low temperatures could cause it to freeze and break down.

If you don't want store your scooter in the garage or shed, you can purchase an outdoor storage cover that will protect it from the sun and rain. Some of these covers even include security features such as locks to deter theft.

Some models come with an easy-to-carry bag or case designed for easy use and transportation. These bags are outfitted with handles and straps which allow users to hold the scooter with one hand over their arm or shoulder without straining their neck or back. This is especially helpful when you have to move your scooter between public transportation or between different vehicles for local transportation.
Most travel scooters have an adjustable seat that can be stored under the chassis or in the front of the user's feet when the scooter isn't being used. This makes the scooter smaller and more compact for storage in tight spaces, and allows users to access any other features they might need like a front basket or caddy.
Travel scooters are also noted for their smaller turning radius. This allows them to navigate through tight spaces, such as the doors of homes and apartments. Some even come with a front suspension that provides extra stability when driving over uneven or rough terrain.
Keeping your travel scooter clean and safe on the road is important for your safety and health. Keep it covered with a tarp or cover at all times. Avoid electric mobility scooters for adults with seat to extreme temperatures, as this will affect the battery's life and affect the frame and its components.

The majority of airlines allow them to be checked in baggage or with special approval. However, you might be required to provide the manufacturer's certification and documentation proving that the batteries conform to their specifications. Some airlines have limitations on the type and size of batteries you can carry and it is recommended to research their rules and guidelines before you travel.
