How Fast Are E-Scooters?

Published September 13, 2022

I’m sure one of the things you firstly think of when considering buying an e-scooter, is how fast are e-scooters, and understandably so. You want to know if you will be able to get from A to B in a convenient enough time.

Today we are going to be speaking about average speeds, how fast some can go and some factors to consider!

On Average…

On average, e-scooters speeds range from 15 to 30 miles per hour (mph). Every type of e-scooter Is different depending on the brand, size, and model. So before buying an e-scooter, if the speed of the scooter is of importance to you, then you should research speeds for that specific e-scooter to get an accurate estimate.

How Fast Can They Really Go?

While most reach top speeds of 33mph, there are ways people can make them faster. I will emphasise that these ways are not usually legal or safe for public roads.

The top speed that an e-scooter has managed to reach was around the 100mph mark, which is almost as fast as the average car.

Factors To Consider

It is very important to think about the fact that laws may be different in certain areas of the country/world. If you are worried, you should always do some research on the area you are in and their specific laws if you think something may be different.

I hope this helped you get the basics of how fast are e-scooters.
