religiously but two weeks ago I used it and there was light rain but had it under carport. I was riding on the wet lawn and when finished wiped it down. Went to put it on charge now there is no power at all and can't charge Had a look at the battery,looks ok but noticed a hole behind the front wheel where the cable's from the ignition switch and speedo go. From the factory they have put black silicon to stop water from entering the battery compartment . It had left a 7 mm hole for water or dirt to enter,so obviously the battery isn't ok now . Now I'm up for new battery at the cost of around $1000. So not happy Jan and the star experience is 2 for that reason

Hoverfly Electric Scooter – DO NOT TRUST THIS SUPPLIER. I purchased 2 Hoverfly electric scooters for my grandchildren in November 2023. These were to be Xmas presents and when I… Read more

came to assemble them I discovered one did not include a charger. I sent 4 emails both through eBay and their supplied email address. The manual supplied the email address with the message to contact if any problems. Despite the messages sent I received no reply until December 20. This email apologised and stated they would check the warehouse for a replacement and to forward the order number. I had already supplied this together with an image of the purchase. However I replied again with those details. I received no further communication so I again emailed them on January 9. I have neither received a replacement nor any correspondence. Of course now I have no other option but to just post this review and hope no one suffers a similar situation of a very disappointed child with a scooter that can't be charged.

acceleration that feels safe and predictable. She picked it up quickly and was riding confidently in no time. What I love most is how much it keeps her entertained. She’s outside riding for ages, having fun, and always keen to hop back on. The battery life is great for regular use, and charging is quick and easy. The scooter itself feels solid and well made, not flimsy, and it handles everyday riding really well. It’s fast enough to be exciting without feeling out of control, which gives great peace of mind. Overall, this has been a fantastic purchase and one of the best gifts we’ve bought. If you’re looking for a fun, easy-to-use electric scooter that kids will actually use, this one is a winner. Highly recommend.

Overall: An excellent off road & all terrain Electric Scooter. Extremely good Suspension, Fully capable of handling larger people with extra… Read more

payloads. Well designed and constructed mechanical and electrical components. Super tough scooter built to handle the unforgiving Australian weather and terrains. I highly recommend this as an all round scooter for both city commutes and occasional rural encounters.

The following spec's for this scooter need to be updated; The Scooter Weighs 26.5 kg. {not 22 kg}. The range is 23km {not 40km}. Flat bitumen road or concrete side walks. at 25km/hr. The battery is 20 Amp Hour {not 12.5 Ahr}. (ref. user manual) Max Load is 150kG 330lb {not 120kG}.

The scooter comes 97% fully assembled. Just lift the steering shaft - insert bolt. Screw 4 hex bolts to attach the handle bar. Adjust brake levers/ front light angle/rotate the screen/pump up the tires insert the key and your away. All of the mechanical stuff and electrical wiring has already been done.

The orange triangles on all four corners of the underbody are amber indicator lights. The key needs to be inserted and rotated right for the scooter to get powered on. The key is locked in position so it can't fall out. The controller has 6 buttons. Light/Horn/On-Off/Speed Mode/ Metric-Imperial Units/Indicator Left-Right. The 4 x Speed Modes are (Walk/Eco/Race/Sport). Throttle is 'Right Thumb Controlled' - Down for Forward. About 25mm down for full speed.

Rubberized Standing Area of 180mm wide x 460mm long (Neuron hire scooters are 190x470) This allows my two size 12 boots to stand with both feet pointing forwards. One of my main reasons for getting this particular scooter was for the extra large standing area.

The suspension of this scooter is extremely good. It divides the weight exactly half to the front wheel, and half to the rear wheel - holding the underbody perfectly flat to the ground for the full movement from 0 weight to full weight of 150kg. Suspension travel is about 30mm (both at front and rear for my bodyweight of 120kg). Then another 25mm when jumping.

RGB Lights on both sides of the underbody and triangles on upper part of the underbody neck (double pressing the light button cycles through about 15 different light colors and modes)

Notes: Scooter comes with user manual / 3-way hex key / 13mm spanner / 2 x keys / and a charger with an Australian 2 pin power plug. Single coil spring Suspension both at front and back. 2 x Disc Brakes The light switch also activates the 'rear red light' and 'brake light (blinking red)'. 7 hour recharge time.

Excellent and powerful electric scooter – Been using mine for the last 4 days and here are my initial impressions: Speed: three settings, slow, medium and fast. If it's busy it's a good idea… Read more

to use the slow setting, probs does about 10-12kmph ideal for not startling path walkers etc. I haven't tried medium much but on the fast setting this goes very quick. It struggles a little up hill but it will get you up. It's definitely better conserve the battery for straight terrain then wasting it all climbing hills.

Fastest speed on flat terrain is 28kmph I've had so far. Downhill obviously even faster and it will keep accelerating down hill.

Braking: the electric brake works but there is quite a bit of a stopping distance if your going at speed. The motor and electric brake are on the front so this makes sense. Take some time to get used to this if you plan on commuting with it. There is a manual brake I've only used it a couple of times but it does the job.

Today I intententionally ran the battery flat to see how much I could get out of it, running it on its highest speed and also going up inclines at points on full throttle. Using it like this i got 13 mile before the battery started to die. Power doesn't cut off, it just gets noticeably slower.

The wheels are not good enough for roads, unless the road is perfect. Too much vibration and I would not want to hit a pot hole at full speed on this.

For now I'm giving it 5/5, purchased it based on my experience in Europe renting their scooters and this is just as good. Its cheaper than other models, I think the LCD screen is very basic but it tells you what you need to know. Hopefully it lasts!

I'll continue using it as a commuter and update the review if anything changes over time.

had used the pick up option instead of delivery; the service on pickup was GREAT, easy-ish to find and access, the people were nice and were flexible to help unpack the scooter so I could take it on public transport easier than doing it in the box; they helped put it together, and let me know how to get it going, including giving it a push start so you don’t jolt when accelerating aswell as giving it a hand to take off; The scooter itself is really good, I am a 110kg person, was slightly uncomfortable with a creaking sound from scooter when getting on, but quickly realised it was from the weight and that the scooter itself is fine. I have used a couple times for short distances with my child in front of me, and have safely gotten around using their 10km speed limit (white indicator); and when solo have used red indicator (of 25km), and have done a bit faster going downhill; but this product is great for short travels of getting around or transfers between bus, and trains and start/end points; it doesn’t like uphill a lot of course, which drains battery quickly, but can get 5km with some up hill moments, on just over half battery, but was more uphill getting back so caught the train a bit closer to avoid dead battery . . . All in all it is a great product to get around that little bit quicker, and to help quick small shopping trips/collections aswell as the last minute trip if you don’t have a car; highly recommend products from this seller as they are decent quality for affordable prices.

the shipment, to which they agreed, even stating that they will hold the item aside for me.

Instead of issuing the refund like I asked, theys tried to intentionally sell me something else, which I denied and pleaded for a refund.

Later on they magically changed their mind saying it was already shipped and the best they could do was store credit.

After letting them know their service was absolutely appalling they changed their mind AGAIN, claiming they could now issue a refund.

It gets worse. They called the consignment company and got them to send the scooter back to them without notifying me, they've also kept my money, this is blatant theft. I am owed $630 for a scooter they refused to refund and took back on their own accord with 0 correspondence. I can't even begin to express how immoral, unethical and illegal this is. This is beyond unacceptable. See you at Tribunal.

look great.

I'm new to escooters, but the performance is impressive. Top speed is 65kmh and with dual 1kw Bosch motors that can boost to almost 3 combined, it has more than enough power to get you into and out of trouble.

I like the build quality, the headlight works ok, the inbuilt addressable lighting automatically goes red with the brakes and yellow with indicators which is a great safety feature. I reckon they could have done a better job with diffusing the individual LEDs, you can seem them clearly on the steering post and deck, which makes the logo hard to read when lit up at night.

The Eco model (this one) has the LED screen instead of LCD, which is fine at night, but everything but the speedo is difficult to read during the day.

The suspension is soft and soaks up bumps really nicely. I'm at the upper end of the 100kg of the weight capacity however, and the lack of adjusability is a problem as it lurches forward under braking which scares the poo out of me each and every time when slowing down from more than 40.

The range is OK. I believe their claimed 60km.

The app mostly works well, there are a few small bugs and the UI is a bit clunky but overall it works well.

Beware of the brakes. The hydraulic disc brakes are great, however the regenerative braking comes on about half a second after pulling the levers and it can be very aggressive at higher speeds. I'm not 100% sure but I don't think you can change this in the app.

This is a great scooter imo, but if you have the extra cash, go the Mini or Mini Pro for the adjustable suspension. You also get significantly more range (bigger battery) and the LCD screen. Having said that, I will probably buy the upgraded coils for my Eco.

has 15 minutes to get from one school to the other which is a 42 minute walk or 13 minutes bike ride scooters are legal in ACT so not a problem he takes it up on the bus and usually gets to school on time. Until one day when he picked it up from the school office the handle just snapped off. (At the bearing ) looks like a weak point because the scooter is very heavy and 99% of the weight is hanging off the aluminium shaft. seeing as how it is only 7 months old I took it back to the shop to see if they could replace it. They said it would have to be sent away to be assessed. And that would take 4 weeks. That’s 4 weeks of being late for school. Not happy Just got a reply from JB Hi-Fi they want $695 to repair it. I said but it’s under warranty? A 1” shaft snaps off and that’s not covered by warranty? Very poor quality and no warranty. Do not buy!

What is an electric scooter?

Man with helmet riding an electric scooter on pavement underneath a bridge

Most of us know what a normal scooter is, and perhaps we’ve even ridden one at some point, so what makes an electric scooter different?

Electric scooters (or motorised scooters) run on an electric motor that is powered by rechargeable batteries, letting you ride it as long as the batteries have charge. They generally come with a charger that you can plug into an electrical socket.

Pros
Great for riding short distances. They’re designed for shorter rides, making them a great option when you want to zip around.
Easy to use. Driving it is as simple as, if not simpler than, riding a bike.
Convenient. It’s easy to find a parking space (or if possible you could just keep it with you) and you can easily skip traffic jams.
Relatively eco-friendly. They have a much lower carbon footprint than cars and don’t emit air pollution.
Low operating costs. While the upfront cost of an electric scooter may be high, they’re inexpensive to run - particularly if you charge them during off-peak times.
Can increase mobility. Not everyone is able to walk or go anywhere they want, whether because of physical, health, or even just time constraints. An electric scooter can make it a lot easier (and possible) to go places - such as areas that don’t have much public transport.
Can be fun! Serious stuff aside, electric scooters can be fun to ride - just ensure that you’re being safe so that your enjoyment isn’t at the expense of anyone else’s.
Cons
Not designed for longer rides. If you have a long commute, an electric scooter may not have the range to take you where you need to go.
Can be dangerous. If the areas you’re riding around don’t support electric scooters (for example if they don’t have dedicated scooter or bike lanes), it may be dangerous, especially if motorists aren’t used to sharing the road with e-scooters.
They aren’t meant to get wet. This means you’ll need a backup mode of transportation for wet weather.
Changing legal status. The laws surrounding them aren’t widely known and are also constantly changing - this can make it difficult to keep up with the guidelines you need to follow.
Can reduce amount of incidental exercise. If you want to increase the amount of exercise you do, an electric scooter may make it hard to do so, particularly if a large portion of your physical activity is gained from commuting around.

Because they vary between states and aren’t widely known, the rules on electric scooters can be confusing, particularly for new riders. To add to the confusion, it’s often still legal for retailers to sell e-scooters in states where you cannot ride them in public (and some retailers aren’t even aware of local laws themselves).

Here’s a basic summary of how legislation differs state to state, but you should do your own research into laws where you live before you buy one and hit the road. Note that these regulations only apply to electric scooters, and not other similar vehicles such as mobility scooters, electric mopeds, or electric hoverboards.

This information was last updated on the 26th November 2021 and may have changed.

Australian Capital Territory

You can only legally ride an electric scooter on the pavement or bike lanes in the ACT. Riding it on the road is only permitted when there is no footpath or nature strip alongside it. You must stick to a speed limit of 15km/h for footpaths and 25 km/h on shared or bike paths.

New South Wales

Riding an e-scooter is currently illegal in NSW, unless you’re on private property. The penalty for using one on a public road or footpath is a $78 on-the-spot fine, with the potential for an increased penalty.

Victoria

You can ride your electric scooter on public roads and footpaths in VIC as long as the motor’s maximum power output is lower than 200W and it has a maximum speed of less than 10km/h. Not many scooters make the cut. The fine for breaching this is $826, and other penalties may apply.

Queensland

Electric scooters can be ridden on QLD paths and roads, as long as your scooter fits certain criteria, including having maximum speed of 25km/h and a maximum weight of 60kg (when not carrying a person or load).

Northern Territory

Laws in the NT depend on your scooter’s power - if it has a maximum power output of less than 200W then you can use it on public roads and footpaths, but those with greater power are considered to be motor vehicles, and therefore must be registered if you want to ride them in public areas. All electric scooters can be used on private property, regardless of power output.

South Australia

You can only ride your e-scooter on private property in SA. As they're considered motor vehicles under South Australian legislation, and don't meet the safety standards needed for one, you can't register your electric scooter and legally ride it.

Western Australia

In WA, electric scooters can only be legally ridden on low speed public roads and paths, and only if they have a maximum engine output of less than 200W and a maximum speed of 10km/h on level ground. You can however ride any e-scooter on private property.

Tasmania

You can ride your electric scooter on low-speed public roads and footpaths in Tasmania if it has a maximum power output of less than 200W. Those with a higher power output can only be used on private property.

Factors to consider when choosing an electric scooter

Safety

Safety should be a top priority when choosing an electric scooter, and there are plenty of features to look out for (in addition to practicing safe scootering and abiding by any relevant laws).

Some of these include:

  • Lights: These make it safer for night riding - bonus points if they have the option to flash for extra visibility. If your scooter doesn't come with lights, check whether you can purchase them separately and attach them yourself.
  • Sturdiness: Generally, the sturdier your electric scooter the less likely it is to break down on your in the middle of riding it. Look out for a durable frame that seems like it can take a big battering.
  • Anti-slip surface: An anti-slip surface on the deck helps you securely stand on the scooter when you're riding it.

Regarding brakes, hydraulic disc brakes are generally a more reliable option than drum brakes, V-brakes and band brakes. This is because they manage heat better and thus don’t deteriorate in the same way that other brakes do. Models with these brakes are generally pricier, but as is the case with all e-scooters, ensure that if you are looking into a model without them that it still has the features necessary for safe driving.

Also consider the weight limit of any scooter you’re considering buying and whether this can accommodate both the driver and their load. Remember that electric scooters are designed for only one rider.

Electric scooters for kids

There are plenty of smaller electric scooter models designed for kids that let them get in on the fun. Often manufacturers will list a suitable age range for their scooters, so ensure you follow these guidelines.

For children, safety features are even more important, as is teaching them safe riding. Don’t choose a larger scooter in anticipation of your kid growing into it unless you’re not going to let them ride it until they’re tall enough - buy one that suits their current height and upgrade accordingly as they grow.

Keep in mind that some states only allow people aged 18 years and over to ride electric scooters on public roads and paths.

Speed

While it may be tempting to go for the fastest electric scooter on the shop shelf, it’s crucial that you pick a model that complies with your state’s and city’s laws regarding maximum scooter speed. There’s little use spending more on a faster scooter if you can’t drive more than 10km/h.

When considering scooter speeds, also factor in that the heavier the rider and the steeper the hill you’re climbing, the slower you will go, so it may be unlikely that you will actually be able to ride at the maximum speed advertised by a manufacturer.

Electric scooter battery and range

The range (distance that the scooter can travel on one battery) that manufacturer’s tout are often best-case examples that are based on a lighter person riding on a flat, straight road.

You may not even want a scooter for a work commute - you may be after an off road scooter that’ll be used on rougher terrains and more inclines. In this case you might want to look for something with a higher range - some off-road models can last up to 120km on a fully charged battery pack (most electric scooters have a range of up to 90km).

Design and functionality

Think about the size and weight you’d prefer, taking into consideration that it has to be hefty enough to bear your weight but lightweight enough to make it portable. Your scooter should be easy for you to carry (including up any stairs or other less accessible spaces you may have to navigate) and whether it has folding capabilities for easy storage and convenient handling.

You’ll also need a handlebar that’s at a comfortable height for you - these are often adjustable. Also consider the size of the standing deck - some people feel more secure with a wider deck.

While most e-scooters are standing scooters, there are some electric scooters with seats (that are similar to bicycle seats) on the market, which may be a more comfortable option for you.

The majority of commuter scooters are 2-wheeled, however there are some 3-wheeled electric scooters and even 4-wheelers which offer more support for uneven terrain. What you prefer is entirely up to you, however ensure these less common models comply with state laws.

Price

An electric scooter can set you back anywhere from $500 to $3000 and upwards. Electric scooters for kids are generally cheaper, and usually cost between $250 and $400.

You should also factor in the price of the electric scooter accessories you’ll need. This includes but is not limited to a helmet, lock, lights, an electric scooter bag, and a warm outer layer if you don’t already have the clothing needed for colder outdoor commutes.

Wrapping up

Buying an electric scooter shouldn’t be a rash decision - you should do your research, and if possible, take some out for a test run to see how you feel riding them. With so many models to choose from, there’s bound to be one that’s just right for you.
