In recent years, the folding mobility scooter has become smaller and lighter. This lightweight improvement is also highly favored by older customers. With more and more types and structures available, what advantages does it have compared to regular mobility scooters?
This advantage primarily relies on the material and design of the folding mobility scooter. Currently, the principal materials for this lightweight scooter are aluminum-magnesium alloy and carbon fiber. These materials are part of the aerospace industry, known for their lightweight and high strength. Thus, when utilized in the folding mobility scooter, it results in a lighter weight, with most models weighing between 13KG and 20KG.
This is mainly due to its structure, which can fold into three sections: the front, the body, and the rear. This folding ability makes the folding mobility scooter compact enough to fit as luggage, enabling it to be easily stored in a car trunk or checked on trains and airplanes. This feature allows individuals with leg and foot disabilities to more easily transport the scooter, making it usable in more locations. This is a primary reason why the folding mobility scooter is increasingly popular.
The battery life of the folding mobility scooter can reach up to 15KM, with the smallest one around 6KM. From the perspective of battery material, the long-range batteries are made from polymer, similar to cellphone batteries, allowing these batteries to be smaller and lighter, albeit slightly more expensive. The shorter range batteries mostly consist of 18650 cells, which are relatively cheaper but do not offer the same range as polymer batteries. The standards for both types of batteries are primarily tailored to comply with some airline regulations for portable batteries, with a maximum energy value of 160WH.
