Choosing your next scooter

Do you live in the city and are looking for a simple and fast way to get around without breaking the bank? Or perhaps just looking for information to give or get the scooter of your dreams?

Shapeheart is here to shed some light and introduce you to all the types of scooters on the market! The goal: to make you a real scooter pro who can impress others!

The classic

Gas scooter.

You know them all; they're probably the ones you encounter most often in your daily life: gasoline scooters. These vehicles, traditionally powered by an internal combustion engine running on gasoline, are generally more powerful than electric scooters, offering better speed and greater range, making them suitable for longer trips or faster roads.

Downsides of these scooters: exhaust fumes (not the most eco-friendly) and the need for gas refills.

The modern touch

Electric scooter.

More and more popular in recent years, scooters have made a name for themselves on the streets of Paris.

THE DARLING OF TEENAGERS

50cc scooter.

In the family of gas scooters, we find 50cc scooters. These gas scooters are often used by teenagers, students, and novice drivers due to their small size and low power. In many countries, they are generally limited to a maximum speed of 45 km/h and often require only a specific scooter license.

Perfect for short city trips, but not suitable for long distances or faster roads. So, if you need a vehicle for short daily commutes... you've found your companion!

This is getting serious!

Three-wheeled scooter.

Three-wheeled scooters, also known as trike scooters, are scooters that have three wheels instead of two (it's that simple).

The main advantage of these vehicles is their stability compared to traditional two-wheelers. This feature is a real plus for less experienced riders or those looking for a more stable option. Some three-wheeled scooters also offer extra storage and better cornering stability, making them popular for longer trips or users who need to carry luggage!

For adventure lovers

Off-road scooter.

Off-road scooters are designed for off-road use, far from the daily city commutes. What sets them apart from other scooters? Their composition! They are equipped with off-road tires, reinforced suspension, mudguards, additional headlights, and taillights.

This adventurer's kit makes them suitable for riding on rough terrain, such as dirt tracks, mountain trails, or campgrounds. Off-road scooters offer greater mobility in difficult environments and can be used for hiking, hunting, exploration, or other outdoor activities!
The Rambo of scooters!

You now know the main types of scooters on the market! Still undecided? Before making a choice, be sure to consider certain criteria to make the best decision:

Its usage (for what distances), your driving experience, your budget, and your environment (what kind of roads in the area).
