Instead of pushing off with your foot to get the scooter to move (hence the ‘kick’ in kick scooter), electric scooters are powered by an electric motor that can be found in one, or both, of the wheels. How does an electric scooter work? Electric scooters are controlled by a throttle found on the handlebars. While there are a few different types of throttle, the throttle sends a signal to a device known as a controller. This controller then draws power from the battery in order to activate the electric motors in the wheels. These motors spin the wheels, moving the e-scooter forwards. What are the main benefits of an electric scooter? Electric scooters have a number of benefits, from speeding up dull commutes, making small daily tasks quicker, or just providing a good time. Most e-scooters can be collapsed and taken on public transport, which means a number of people who work in the city but live in the suburbs have found them to be a great way of shaving time off their commute. Others like taking them to the shops or running small errands such as going to the post office or getting lunch with friends. Of course, you can just use them for pure fun as well. How do I choose an electric scooter? Choosing an electric scooter is all about knowing what you want and what you need. E-scooters can vary widely in terms of performance and features, so to get the e-scooter that best suits your needs, really take the time to think about what that e-scooter needs to do for you. Performance scooters can make for heavy commuters, while
