Schwinn Electric Vehicle Company is a long established manufacturer of electric bicycles and since 2005 has used its long experience to produce the excellent range of Schwinn electric scooters. The Schwinn S-500 electric scooter is suitable for anyone from the age of 12 to adult users. This makes it a popular purchase for parents with growing children and will save you from having to buy a new scooter when they grow up. It’s both a fun scooter for kids and a convenient way to take short trips for any adult weighing up to 240lbs. It will take you on your way at speeds up to 15 mph and can go up to 8 miles on each charge.
It’s more comfortable than a regular stand up electric scooter because it has a comfortable padded seat so you can rest easy on the go or you can remove the seat if you don’t need it. Another handy feature is the ‘smart’ fuel gauge which lets you monitor how much ‘juice’ you have left, so you don’t risk being stranded because the battery has run out. On this great Schwinn electric scooter, you ride 12″ wide alloy mag wheels with 3.25″ tires that give you a smooth ride on flat pavement surface.
It has a 500W DC ground magnet motor and the variable speed twist grip throttle which is a useful safety feature because if you fall the scooter will stop immediately. You can charge the two 12-volt sealed batteries at any regular outlet and it charges faster than other scooters in just 4-5 hours. For anyone older who wants a Schwinn electric scooter, I can tell you that this model has a new easy-access battery box to help you move the battery in and out of the vehicle. You can buy the Schwinn S-500 electric scooter at places like Walmart and the price is around $260, which is very reasonable for such a fun and practical vehicle.
If you want something more rugged that you can drive off-road, then the S750 scooter is a good option. It has 12″ alloy wheels with 3″ rims and can have Low Profile Street Slick or Knobby Off-Road tires. The S750 engine will give you a little more power to go up small inclines and over rocky surfaces. The frame is stronger and has front and rear suspension and 36 volts of power. This Schwinn electric scooter model also has a top speed of 15 miles, but it can go further than the S-500 and has a range of about 12 miles. It has all the good features of the S-500 with an easy to adjust seat that you can remove if you don’t want to use it. You can pick up the S750 from Walmart for around $299 and cruise around your neighborhood in style.
Both scooters have direct chain drive and you can fold them up and store them in the trunk of your car with no problem. Families take their children’s scooters on vacation and people with boats find them useful for shopping and sightseeing. They are environmentally friendly and run very quietly, making them much better than the noisy petrol mopeds that drive us all crazy with that high-pitched whine. This type of electric scooter is not a problem if you need to repair and maintain it, as electric scooter parts are easy to come by.
Electric scooters offer a more stylish alternative to cheap mopeds as a way to take short trips without having to waste gas and pollute the air with your Top 10 Echo. If you are looking for motorized scooters for children, very fast electric scooters or a comfortable seat scooter for adults, you will find everything you need in the wide range of Schwinn electric scooters.
