Top 5 Best Mobility Scooters – [2020 Reviews]

This Scout Spitfire travel mobility scooter is an excellent motorised scooter that really does combine amazing features with an affordable price. This makes it perfect for users that need a good electric mobility scooter but can’t afford to throw nearly a thousand or even over a thousand dollars at it.

Just one of the great things about this particular power scooter is the way that it so efficiently adjusts to fit the specific user comfortably. There are quite a few individual features that adjust to help make the user as comfortable as possible.

The stadium-style seat has 3 different height settings which make it work well for people of almost all heights. The seat is also cushioned and upholstered to help increase comfort.

The armrests on the seat are easy to flip up and out of the way to make it easy for the user to get on and off of their motor scooter. Another really helpful feature with the armrests is that you can actually adjust the width, or how far they come out from the seat of the scooter.

This works great to increase comfort and usability for users of different sizes that may need more or less room than others.

The tiller (the post that houses the handles and controls) is also easily adjustable. This lets you put it in the perfect position for your specific needs and comfort level.

The steering handle has a wrap-around design with comfort padding that makes driving simple and easy even for those users that may have more limited dexterity. A throttle control with an ergonomic design further increases ease of use.

The 4 tires on this Drive Medical scooter are flat-free and feature special anti-tip technology to increase safety as well as convenience. On the front of this medical scooter, you’ll find a large plastic basket attached.

This provides the perfect space for storing items to easily bring along with you as you ride the scooter. The 24V motor can carry you as far as 9 miles in a single charge with a top speed of 4.25mph. The included charger makes it easy to re-charge the scooter as needed by simply plugging it in.

This scooter also comes with a special battery pack that can be charged separately from the scooter itself, and then quickly and easily plugged into the scooter when the power is needed.

The scooter has a maximum weight capacity of 300 pounds. To add a little fun and style, this scooter also has little interchangeable panels with different colors.

This specific scooter comes with a set of both red panels as well as blue panels. You can choose to change which color you have on occasionally or even put some of the red and some of the blue panels on to mix it up.

This is definitely the choice for you if you want something that is full of incredible and beneficial features, but you do need to stay within a relatively low budget!

This is a fairly small mobility scooter, so if you’re looking for a more compact mobility scooter, this is also a great choice for that. The faux-leather seat of this scooter is stylish and well-padded for comfort. It’s also easily height adjustable.

The armrests of this scooter don’t extend out to adjust the width between them like with the Drive Medical scooter, but they do flip up. This allows easy entry and exit of the scooter for the user. The handlebars feature grips for increased comfort and the controls are simple and user-friendly.

This lightweight mobility scooter easily comes apart into 5 individual pieces making it an easily portable scooter as well. Since this is a 3 wheel mobility scooter, it isn’t quite as sturdy as options with 4 wheels.

However, the 3 wheels do allow it to be superior at maneuvering tighter spaces, which can be really helpful. This scooter comes with 2 12V batteries and has a max speed of 4mph.

It is able to travel up to 6.3 miles in a single charge, which obviously isn’t quite as far as the Drive Medical choice but is still a decent amount.

Like the Drive Medical scooter, this option does have the flat-free tires for convenience and safety. Also, like the Drive Medical option, this scooter does have a plastic basket that attaches to the front of the scooter for convenient storage space.

Something that this scooter has that the Drive Medical does not is that it includes 2 free gifts with your purchase. This scooter comes with both an attachable cupholder as well as a small saddle bag. These go on the armrests of the scooter and add even more convenience.

The maximum weight capacity of 275 pounds is a little low compared to other options but still works for most users. Basically, this is a really nice scooter considering the low cost compared to most mobility scooters. It is perfect for anyone on a tighter budget.

The seat on this scooter is height adjustable. It also swivels around as needed. This swiveling feature combined with flip-up armrests makes it as simple as possible to get on and off the scooter. The GOGO scooter also has a top speed of 4mph and can take you just a little farther than the Pro Premium with a drive range of 6.9 miles.

The 12AH batteries that come with the scooter can be charged either in or outside of the scooter to help increase convenience. Just like the Pro Premium, the Go Go scooter can easily disassemble into 5 different pieces, which is great if you’re looking for portable mobility scooters.

This scooter does have the lightest mobility scooter weight limit at just 260 pounds. It is great for many users, but if you or your loved one is over that 260-pound limit, you’ll need to choose a different option.

This is another mobility scooter that has flat-free tires and a front basket that is easily accessible for convenient storage. As far as cost goes, it is definitely the most expensive option that we have reviewed so far, but it has managed to stay under $1000.

The high-quality materials, longer drive range, and stylish design helped this option make it onto our list as the best 3-wheel electric scooter.

A durable one-piece frame and large 10” tires help give the scooter the strength it needs to ensure safety even for 500-pound users. The tires are also flat-free just like the tires of our other picks.

The scooter itself weighs a whopping 260 pounds, so it won’t be the easiest option for portability, but it does have features to help make it possible.

The scooter disassembles so that the heaviest piece is 76 pounds, which is a lot more manageable than 260 pounds.

The folding mobility scooter seat also helps reduce the volume the pieces take up for transport or even storage. An extra-wide and heavily padded seat help to make sure that even larger users are as comfortable as possible. Four wheels opposed to just three give this scooter great stability.

This is even the fastest mobility scooter of our recommendations with a top speed of 5.25mph. It also has an impressive drive range that allows you to go up to 10 miles each time the scooter is fully charged.

The pair of 32AH batteries are what helps make this possible. A front headlight helps add more safety for outdoor use after dark. This scooter option also has a storage basket on the front just like the previously listed electric mobility chairs.

All of these incredible features and the extra-strong and durable construction required to make this a bariatric scooter really drive up the price, of course. This is, by far, the most expensive option of mobility scooter that we have reviewed.

If you need a motorized scooter for elderly individuals over the weight limits of other options, this is definitely your best option. However, there are other great choices for an elderly mobility scooter that are much cheaper if you don’t need the high weight limit that this one has.

Suspension in both the front and the back of this scooter gives it a smoother ride on multiple types of terrain. It helps preserve the scooter while making things more comfortable for the user.

A ground clearance of an impressive 4 inches further increases the scooter’s abilities outdoors and on different terrains. An ultra-bright LED headlight and taillights keep the user as safe as possible even in darker conditions.

A relatively high weight limit of 330 pounds works great for users that are heavier but still don’t quite need the bariatric option.

The foldable mobility scooter seat and easy-to-disassemble mobility scooter parts make this option relatively easy to transport as well. This scooter also has a height adjustable seat with flip-up armrests for the convenience and comfort of the user.

The BUZZAROUND EX Extreme goes nearly as fast as the Pride Maxima with a top speed of 5mph but has a much longer drive range of a very impressive 18 miles per charge. That’s thanks to the 2U1 batteries that this scooter is equipped with.

Price-wise, this is the second most expensive option on our list but is still only about 1/3 of the cost of the Pride Maxima listed above. It is definitely the best mobility scooter for outdoors!
