The holidays are only weeks away—can you believe it? We’re sure those parents among us have already gotten the socks, jackets and sweaters purchased and out of the way but lose sleep on the fun stuff. At the top of those holidays gift lists will be light Electric vehicles, which is long hand for electric bikes, skateboards, hoverboards and scooters.
In this article, we’re going to take a look at five of the hottest scooters to help guide your purchasing when it comes time to choose between the myriad of electric scooters currently on the market!
Razor E300S Seated Electric Scooter
The Razor E300S is perfect for those kids who just hate to stand up while they ride. All joking aside, this scooter is perfect stepping-stone from standing electric scooter to faster electric bicycles. It’s got a high-torque chain-driven motor with an easy-to-use twist-grip throttle, which can get riders up to 15 mph. The scooter has a hand-operated rear brake, spring-loaded kickstand, and extra-wide 10-inch pneumatic tires and a removable riding seat for a super smooth ride.
What’s nice too is that the deck and frame are sized so it’s not just for kids and can support even some lighter-sized adults. It charges fast and lasts up to forty continuous minutes per charge so the fun lasts and lasts.
Honda Metropolitan 6V Electric Scooter
Okay, obviously taking one look at the Honda Metropolitan 6V and you’ll see it’s clearly for the little ones. But, bear in mind, it’s a really cool scooter for those little ones. It’s clearly riffing on the adult-sized Honda Metropolitan, which is one of the best-selling scooters domestically so it’s definitely got the retro look for those hip kids.
It’s a perfect toy for ages two to five and will keep them at a very safe 2.5 mph. The frame is sturdy and should last until they outgrow it. This will make a great holiday gift for the kid on your list!
SWAGTRON Swagger High Speed Electric Scooter
The SWAGTRON Swagger isn’t just a catchy name but also a killer scooter that will make a great gift for your teenagers and young adults looking for a light electric vehicle this year. The 250-watt motor propels this e-scooter to a max speed of 15 MPH for a range of 4 to 15 miles. The scooter folds down in a few simple moves for easy transportation and storage when you’re not using it (great for dorm rooms!). The LED control panel allows you to view the Swagger’s speed and battery life. Best of all, it’s eco-friendly. The Swagger is 100% electric and produces zero emissions, which means you don’t have to pump gasoline into it—saving your bank account and our environment.
VIRO Rides Vega Transforming 2-in-1 Electric Scooter and Mini Bike
The VIRO Rides Vega is probably the most interesting of the scooters on the list. Actually, calling this an “electric scooter” is a bit reductive because it’s more than that. With a few easy changes, this scooter becomes a mini-bike too!
The 100W DC chain-drive motor will get riders (ages 8 and up) up to 10 mph. The disc brakes are easily engaged with the pump of a hand making this bike/scooter very safe too! With the VIRO Vega, you don’t have to choose between a mini-bike and a scooter because you can have them both!
GOTRAX GXL
The GOTRAX GXL is a state-of-the-art electric scooter that puts much of the competition to shame and does it all at an incredibly reasonable price. What does this scooter do that the others don’t? We’re glad you asked.
The tires have 8.5-inch front and rear tires for greater shock absorption and anti-slip treads for a smoother ride. With a 250W motor this scooter will get any rider where they need to go. The GXL is fast enough for an adult commuter but safe enough for a teenage rider too. It’s got a super bright headlight up front, a built-in speedometer and variable speed technology so you’re always in control.
Did we mention how cool it looks too? The matte black is sleek but the deep steel blue will turn heads just as well.
See? It’s not as simple as you thought. There’s plenty to consider when you’re in the market for an electric scooter. We hope this guide helped you find a scooter for your child, teenager or even the adult in your life who just hasn’t grown all the way up yet. We suggest you act fast, these are the hottest scooters on the market and sometimes supply doesn’t always meet demand. Get your orders in soon and find yourself a good hiding place until the holidays come around!
