Go portable! Finding the best folding Mobility Scooters

Over the years, mobility scooters have undergone rapid evolution to today’s lightweight and highly portable models.

Mobility scooters have become an invaluable mode of transport to those with mobility issues and they are pretty much seen everywhere, allowing users to go on shopping trips, outings, holidays and for many other users without restrictions due to lack of mobility.

Choosing a portable mobility scooter can be a challenge in itself, as there is a plethora of models on the market and each has its own features, benefits and individual technical characteristics. One of the fundamental questions first asked of the potential purchaser is what range is appropriate for my needs? Portable mobility scooters come with different levels of power and range for each charge cycle, so it’s important to decide on the type of journeys you’ll be undertaking and your travel habits/ distances.

So, in this article, we’ll take a look at what we think are four of the best examples on the market today for features across value, specifications and features/ benefits.

The Pride GoGo Elite Traveller 4 Wheel Mobility Scooter is one of the new breed lightweight and compact scooters, ideal for travelling as it can be easily disassembled into five extremely lightweight pieces with the use of just one hand. This attractive scooter is highly durable and from the renowned Pride brand that has built a global following amongst users. For those longer journeys, the seating area and backrest are generously padded and the seat folds and swivels allowing for a fast and seamless transfer. The Pride GoGo Elite Traveller 4 Wheel Mobility Scooter has a maximum range of 16 Kilometres and Max speed of 4MPH.

Portability of mobility scooters has also come with less weight, as manufacturers have sought to make handling, carrying and storage of mobility scooters easier, as well as making them easier to take away when travelling or when boarding a plane.

Three wheeled portable mobility scooters are a great example of a more lightweight build that is ideal for outings and particularly for travel. Having three wheels means obvious weight saving, and yet for that, the Shoprider Whisper Mobility Scooter is both powerful and built with a quality of manufacture that has led to rave reviews from customers and a loyal following.

The model we feature here is in a striking electric blue and also comes in a bright red for maximum kerb appeal.

As its name suggests, the Shoprider Whisper is both great for shopping trips and also come with whisper quiet operation, so the smoothness of ride and handling are nothing short of exceptional.

Unique articulating double front wheels allow the Whisper to travel easily over uneven terrains and surfaces, whether indoors or outdoors.

This portable mobility scooter can be dismantled in a matter of seconds and will fit into even the smallest storage spaces or virtually any sized car boot.

With a maximum range of 16 Km, the Shoprider Whisper is very versatile for any travel and operates at a nippy 4 Mph.

If the weight of your mobility scooter is one of your main considerations, then this Folding Lightweight Mobility Scooter may be the answer to your prayers. One of the lightest scooters available on the market, weighing in at just 21.5 kgs!
