Loss of mobility often happens so gradually that a sufferer may not realize how restricted his life has become. Those using an electric scooter for the first time often feel that they have regained their freedom. A Pride electric scooter can help those suffering from mobility limitations to maintain their independence.
Before shopping for a Pride electric scooter, it is helpful to decide what you are looking for. Do you plan to use the scooter inside an apartment, where maneuverability is critical? Are you looking for something portable to use when traveling? Are you an outdoors person, seeking a scooter that will cover rugged terrain? Do you have a large vehicle or will the scooter need to fit into a car? As one of the largest and most well known mobility electric scooter manufacturers, Pride electric scoter dealers offer a wide variety of models to address these questions and more.
You can find these key features in the Pride electric scoter brand - indoor maneuverability (very important if you live in an apartment or other small space), indoor/outdoor versatility (a key factor for many people), outdoor capability (important if you enjoy outdoor recreation), increased weight capability (for users who weigh over 300 pounds), easy portability (very important if you own a small car or travel a lot), and personal mobility vehicles (extremely durable outdoor scooters designed for highly active outdoors use). Many electric motor scooters are listed in more than one category, enabling you to prioritize your needs and find a scooter that will meet all or most of your desires.
The compact Pride electric scooter includes the Revo, GoGo Elite Traveler, Sonic, and SunDancer, which provide both Indoor Maneuverability and Easy Portability. These scooters are the most useful for those who primarily visit indoor locations, such as the mall, and desire a lightweight, maneuverable, easy to transport scooter. These scooters also fit easily into small cars and public transportation. However, they are not right for everyone. Smaller tires and a lighter frame, necessary for tight turns, make the scooters more prone to damage from heavy outdoor use. The most maneuverable are three wheel scooters, though a four-wheel design (offered in both the Revo and GoGo Elite Traveler models) offers improved stability and better outdoor use.
At the other extreme are the Personal Mobility Vehicles. The Hurricane and the Wrangler are specifically designed for heavy outdoor use on rugged and uneven terrain. While technically considered power scooters, these two are truly in a class by themselves. A heavy frame, impact resistant bumpers, increased speed (9 mph for the Hurricane, 10 mph for the Wrangler), improved suspension, and all terrain tires are just a few of the features that allow these scooters to go almost anywhere. These scooters are also not right for everyone. The increased durability is possible thanks to large, heavy parts. A fully assembled Wrangler weighs in at 345 pounds. The scooters do not fit onto the lifts of most buses, and even disassembled are too large and heavy to load into a car. This type of electric scooter appeals to those who want maximum freedom in outdoor travel, and have a van or large truck to use for transport.
From compact scooters to personal mobility vehicles and everything in between, a Pride electric scooter offers solutions for customers with widely differing needs and desires. Most users will find that a scooter in the middle of the range, balancing durability with weight, and portability with flexibility, will best meet their needs. However, Pride's broad product line ensures that no matter what your requirements, you will find a scooter that is perfect for you.
