Note: *Top speed, range, and hill climb rating are based on our performance tests and adjusted for a 250 lb rider. However, riding style and stature will greatly impact some of these numbers, which should be used as a guideline only.

Sometimes you just have to settle for what you can get.

This certainly the case with the Hiboy S2, the cheapest option on our list.

Dual spring suspension helps to dampen road vibrations and solid tires make for low maintenance.

The scooter is rated to support up to 270 lbs, though expect to crawl up modest hills and walk the scooter up steeper ones.

The unfortunate fact is bigger, more powerful scooters are just more expensive. However, the S2 is an acceptable choice if you want to get your feet wet and see what electric scootering is all about.

You can always upgrade later.

The Touring has a supremely comfortable ride and is actually portable.

Its 22.8-inch long deck is disproportionately large given that it is super compact, when folded.

Suspension is simply amazing and the very high ground clearance means that dropping off of curbs won’t be a problem.

Overall build quality is decent, but feels like it lags a bit behind more premium models.

The biggest downside to the Touring is it only has rear wheel braking and the rear tire is solid. This makes it prone to skidding on slippery surfaces or when stopping quickly.

If you are a bigger rider and need a great scooter, get the Explore.

The Explore is kind of a go-to scooter that’s basically good at everything but not too much of any one thing. It’s why the Explore is one of the best scooters overall and one of the longest-ranged.

By no means cheap, the Explore also isn’t outrageously expensive yet gives you 24 mi of range and 25 mph top speed. Acceleration is fast and its beefy disc brake can handle larger riders.

Fit and finish is very good. The ride is comfortable due to big deck and dual suspension. Additionally, the Explore is backed with an up to 2-year warranty, that is a first in this industry (though may vary, depending on retailer).

Like the Energizer Bunny, the Cruiser just keeps going and going and going. Simply put, its range is legendary.

The Cruiser is stuffed to the gills with a giant 1560-wh battery, turn signals, electronic horn, semi-hydraulic disc brakes, a giant deck, and dual spring suspension.

Oh, and did I mention that it’s actually IPX6 water resistant? That’s right, you can actually ride the Cruiser in the rain without fear of killing the scooter (though we don’t recommend soaking it).

The Cruiser is a great ride and its 52-lb weight is still portably enough for most. Its stem locks into place for easier carrying though its angular shape is not optimal for your hands.

Heavy rider or not, the Cruiser one of the best scooters of all time. We can’t wait to see how future iterations improve on an already incredible scooter.

The Ghost delivers ultimate value for heavier riders that aren’t content to cruise, but want a ride that smashes.

The Ghost tics many of the boxes that larger riders are looking for:

• fast top speed
• powerful dual motors
• dual suspension
• big (10.0-inch) air-filled tires
• tall handlebars (41.0 inches)
• high ground to deck clearance (5.5 inches). 

The Ghost’s braking is among the best and its total 1600 watts of power propels heavy riders uphill quickly.

The suspension could provide more damping for Big Dawgs, but does eat most of the smaller bumps.

Sometimes you just have to settle for what you can get.
