Electric scooters have become a favourite for adults looking to add convenience, excitement and versatility to their day-to-day lives. At Pure Electric, our adult electric scooters are engineered in the UK with different riders in mind, whether you are an adventure-seeker, a tech enthusiast, or someone who values a smooth, comfortable ride every time you step on. Here is a look at the ideal riders for each of our electric scooters for adults, and what sets each model apart.
1. The comfort-seeking rider
If you want a comfortable, confidence-inspiring ride, start with suspension. The Air⁶ Suspension pairs dual GlideMotion™ suspension with 10" enhanced-grip tubeless tyres, so small bumps fade away beneath you and larger impacts are softened before they reach your knees. From £399, it is the most accessible way into a fully suspended ride.
The Escape Pro+ Suspension adds our forward-facing Ultimate Riding Stance and Active Steering Stabilisation System™ to that same dual GlideMotion™ suspension. The stabilisation helps keep your steering centralised, dampening unwanted side-to-side movement on uneven surfaces, so the ride feels controlled, calm and planted. Browse all our suspension electric scooters to compare.
2. The performance-oriented rider
If you like having power at your fingertips, look to the top of the Air⁶ range. The Air⁶ Ultra Max Suspension has our most powerful motor, with 1900W max power for strong acceleration and confident hill climbing, plus an added rear disc brake to match. It also offers up to 90km of range.
For plenty of pull at a lower price, the Air⁶ Pro+ Suspension and the Escape Pro+ Suspension both deliver 1200W max power. Every current model is limited to 25km/h (15.5mph), so extra power shows up as quicker, smoother pull away and more in reserve on inclines, not a higher top speed.
3. The tech-forward adventurer
If you appreciate technology and dependability, our current scooters are built to keep you riding in all kinds of conditions. Every model carries IP65 water resistance and app connectivity, and models such as the Air⁶ Suspension and Escape Pro+ Suspension add indicators so you can signal clearly without taking a hand off the bars.
The Pure Advance brings these together with a forward-facing stance, Active Steering Stabilisation, indicators and an app lock, so you can secure the scooter from your phone when you step away. It is a thoughtful, connected package for the rider who likes to venture out in any weather.
4. The style-conscious individual
If style matters as much as performance, the Pure x McLaren collection brings racing-inspired design to the e-scooter. Available in Papaya, Black and Chrome, it combines a forward-facing stance with Active Steering Stabilisation and up to 62.4km of range. The Pure x McLaren Flex wraps our most compact folding design in McLaren livery. Either way, you make a statement without giving up precision or stability.
5. The first-time rider
If you are new to electric scooters, stability matters most. The Pure Advance is a natural first choice. You stand facing the way you are travelling rather than side-on, which feels more balanced from the very first ride, and Active Steering Stabilisation keeps the handlebars steady while you build confidence. It covers up to 57.5km on a charge and folds at the handlebars, stem and footpads for easy storage. Our guide to the Pure Advance and its forward-facing format explains more.
If space is tight at home, the Flex offers the same forward-facing stance in the world's most compact e-scooter. It folds small enough for a car boot, a train or a small space at home, and handles hills up to a 19% gradient. Find out why forward-facing riding makes such a difference.
Where you can ride
It is currently only legal to use an e-scooter on private land with the permission of the land owner. It is illegal to ride an e-scooter on a public road, cycle path, bridleway or pavement.
