Electric Scooters UK - electric scooterElectric scooters, also known as e-scooters, are adult kick scooters that have been added with an electric motor and battery. The motor and battery are what powers e-scooters. There is a switch to control the speed (e.g. on/off or variable) and for braking purposes, hand brakes are mounted on the handlebar. The batteries can typically be found beneath the feet. The speeds and range on e-scooters vary dramatically due to the different scooters that are available and the legislation that applies to them. Typically, speed capacity of e-scooters start below 10 mph to over 30 mph for more powerful e-scooters. The range can be from a few miles to 20 miles for higher performance e-scooters. |
