Pros
- Lightweight design
- Can add attachable seat (for extra)
Cons
- Doesn’t go more than 17 miles on a charge
- Need to have at least 50 percent of battery charged for optimal performance
Hiboy’s electric scooter is a commuter’s favorite. It’s incredibly smooth when accelerating and turning, and a double braking system makes for quick stops. It lasts a little less than others on one charge (17 miles), but for the city commuter going shorter distances, that may be less of a priority. It also still goes up to 19 mph so it gets to a good speed.

Naturally, we had to include Razor’s electric scooter. The brand went for a modern and eco-friendly design, with a wide bamboo deck and seat for comfort. There’s even a luggage rack to help you transport your belongings. It might not go as far (12 miles at 18 mph speed), but it’s great for those looking for a seated and safe scooter to get their daily chores done. You aren’t going to be speeding around town as sleekly, but you will be looking stylish and feeling cushy.
