It handles a rider weighing up to 300lbs.

TopMate Three Wheel Scooter has a 250 W brushless hub motor powered by an unique 36 V 7.2 Ah lithium battery, can reach speeds up to 16 mph, and is actually far more comfortable than it looks. The range is about 21 miles, but the charging time is just about 3.5 hours, which very fast compared to most other electric scooters.

Riding one is a unique experience, and you need to put your feet up next to the front wheel (like a children’s tricycle), but you’ll get used to it in no time. The simple suspension system can brave bumps and cracks in the street or sidewalk, and when combined with the pneumatic tires, makes the ride pretty enjoyable.

This scooter has a weight limit of 265 lbs, and weighs just under 35 lbs. It’s foldable and can fit nicely into a medium-sized car trunk, and you can use the rear wheels to roll it around when it’s folded, like a rolling suitcase. It can stand upright and doesn’t take too much space, so you can plug it in at your office or living room.

What we liked

• Decent range
• Cool design
• Foldable

What we didn’t like
