If you're looking for a scooter that is easy to manoeuvre in dense areas, a 4 speed model could be the right choice.

The smaller wheels on a four speed scooter make it easier to navigate around uneven terrain.

You can even purchase a full size scooter that can travel for miles with a single battery charge, if you want something larger for long walks or day trips.

The incline rating of mobility scooters is another important aspect to be considered. The higher the rating of the incline, the more the power a scooter can provide for steep inclines. This is particularly beneficial if you live in an area with many hills, or if you plan to use your scooter for trips outdoors. To ensure that your scooter is operating optimally you must be sure to check the motor, tires and the overall mechanical components regularly.

If, on the other hand, you'd like a scooter that can travel longer distances without needing recharge, you can choose long-range models with a battery life of up to 30 miles.

Another aspect to consider is the capacity of your scooter's weight. If you're a user with a bariatric condition it's best to choose a more robust model that can withstand greater user weights and be able to tackle more difficult terrain. Heavy-duty scooters usually have wider wheel bases and stronger tires, which allow them to tackle obstructions like curbs and steep slopes.

For instance, if going to be primarily driving it in a city, you might want to opt for three-wheel models with an elongated base and a short turning radius, which makes them ideal for maneuvering through tight spaces. Contrarily, a four-wheel scooter with a wider base and wide-track tires is more suited for off-road conditions.
