Compared to traditional scooters, electric scooters are preferred by more people because of the wealth of benefits that they can deliver, with the most significant being the fact that they are eco-friendly. Since they do not use oil or gas, they also do not produce carbon emissions that can harm the environment. They are also cheaper compared to their traditional counterparts.

Not all electric scooters are created the same as there are various features that separate one from the other. At all times, you should play the part of a responsible buyer, which means that you should take time to differentiate the options that you have to end up making a well-informed decision. Among others, some of the essential factors to consider include the product’s weight capacity, overall design, steering, wheels, brakes, and motor, among others.

What’s the difference between electric scooters for adults versus children?

That’s an interesting question to ask yourself if you’re having doubts about shopping for an electric scooter. However, please know that there are a few differences that set the two distinct scooters apart.

Adult electric scooters are designed for adults. They tend to be sturdier, heavier and often have seats. (Although, we will share with you an adult scooter that does NOT have a seat.)

Children’s scooters tend to be smaller and more colorful. (We can’t really picture an adult riding around on a bright pink, cartoon character-themed scooter.)

Let’s take a look at the 3 best electric scooters for adults and compare them to each other. At the end of the article, we shall see which one offers the best of the best.

Razor E300 Electric Scooter		No	15 mph
Razor E300S Seated Electric Scooter		Yes	15 mph
Black Super Turbo 1000watt Elite 36v		Yes	26 mph

2. So, what’s important to look for when searching for an adult electric scooter?

As with anything, there are certain details to be on the lookout for while shopping for the best electric scooters for adults.

Size

Firstly, you will want to ensure that the scooter you choose will fit and support you. There’s nothing more annoying than buying a brand new scooter and it’s too small. Most scooter product descriptions display the size and/or weight limits.

Let’s see what the size and weight calculations are for our 3 chosen products.

Product	Size
Razor E300 Electric Scooter	The Razor E300 measures at 41 inches by 17 inches by 42 inches in size. (Length by width by height.) The electric scooter weighs a light 52 pounds and offers a rider weight capacity of 220 pounds.
Razor E300S Seated Electric Scooter	The Razor E300S measures at 41 inches by 17 inches by 42 inches in size. (Length by width by height.) Just like the Razor E300, the Razor E300S weighs a light 52 pounds and also provides a rider weight capacity of 220 pounds.
Black Super Turbo 1000watt Elite 36v	The Black Super Turbo definitely appears sturdy upon first glance. Although the product description doesn’t state the length, width and height of the electric scooter nor the weight capacity, it does say that the scooter weighs a hefty 75 pounds.

It’s easy to assume then that since the other two electric scooters weigh around 52 pounds that the Black Super Turbo can hold more weight than the 220 pound weight capacity than that of the Razor E300 and the Razor E300S.

Seat

If you’re needing or wanting an electric scooter that has a seat, then there are some things to consider before you make a purchase.

Remember, as an adult, you want to ensure that the scooter is made for your size, and that you’re not confused by the electric scooter in which you’re browsing at. This is why these details matter so much.

You need to check on the height of the seat and whether or not it’s removable. This will tell you a lot about what you’re looking at. Generally, children’s electric scooters have shorter seats with smaller seat pads.

Let’s take a look at our electric scooter selections have to offer with the seat options.

Product	Seat
Razor E300 Electric Scooter	For what it’s worth, the Razor E300 does NOT have a seat option. Discard this one from the seating considerations.
Razor E300S Seated Electric Scooter	The Razor E300S comes with a convenient seat that is padded and cushion for your comfort. In fact, the seat is removable. This gives you the option to ride while standing up or sitting down. The seat is attached to the electric scooter by four screws. This makes it incredibly easy to remove the seat for storage purposes or for the sake of time. It’s also been noted that the seat is high enough that adults that are around 5’3 in height struggle to reach the base with their tiptoes. If you’re average height or taller, this would work perfectly for you. As a side note: The company makes it clear that the weight capacity for the Razor E300S is 220 pounds. However, it has been notated that it can carry people that weigh 25 pounds beyond the 220 pound weight limit. This just goes to show that it’s a great electric scooter and built to last.
Black Super Turbo 1000watt Elite 36v	The Black Super Turbo Electric Scooter won the award for the size and weight capacity. How does it hold up with the seating option? The seat has a height of around 30 inches from the base. In fact, many grown men as tall as 6’3 have expressed their enjoyment and comfort with this electric scooter. The seat is padded for cushion and is also removable for your convenience.

Battery Power and Longevity

When it comes to purchasing a great, adult, electric scooter, you want to ensure that you investigate the battery power and longevity. What good is the new ride if it doesn’t last for very long? This is an important detail to learn about and then compare to other electric scooters. Obviously, you will want the electric scooter that has the best battery power and longevity. Let’s take a look at the battery power for each of our three adult scooters.

Product	Battery Power and Longevity
Razor E300 Electric Scooter	The Razor E300 Electric Scooter comes with a 24 volt, rechargeable battery system that’s guaranteed to be long-lasting. It only takes twelve hours to charge completely. On a full charge, the Razor E300 riding time lasts up to forty minutes. (That’s continuous use, not idle time.)
Razor E300S Seated Electric Scooter	The Razor E300S Electric Scooter has very a near identical battery operating system as that of the Razor E300. It also has a guaranteed, long-lasting 24 volt battery that’s rechargeable. The first charge will take twelve hours. However, the recharging times may not always take the full twelve hours. (However, please note that it still can take up to twelve hours.) When you’re recharging the Razor E300S battery, don’t be fooled by the green light. This doesn’t mean that it’s necessarily fully charged if it’s only been on the charging dock for six hours. Keep it charging for the full twelve hours or close to it. It isn’t advised to keep the battery on charge for more than 24 hours. Once the battery is fully charged, it’s play time. The Razor E300S will operate for forty minutes of continuous running time. However, keep in mind that other factors also determine the operating time. Weight, terrain, time, speed and other riding factors may play a role in faster battery usage. Like the Razor E300, if the Razor E300S is idle, it won’t run out of juice in forty minutes. You get out of it with what you put into it.
Black Super Turbo 1000watt Elite 36v	The Black Super Turbo Electric Scooter has an amazing battery power and life in comparison to the Razor E300 and the Razor E300S. It’s equipped with a powerful battery system that contains 36 volts. This means that you can ride for a solid 18 miles before the battery loses power and gumption! That’s a lot of power in one charge.

Motor

Naturally, the next thing you would want to focus on while shopping for a great, adult electric scooter is the motor and all the details about it. The motor is where you will find a lot of your moving power. Let’s take a look at our three electric scooters and see what they have to offer in the motor category.

Product	Motor
Razor E300 Electric Scooter	The Razor E300 Electric Scooter comes with a nice motor package. It’s motor operates on a quiet, single speed, chain. With an incredibly high torque, it has a powerful motor that carries 300 watts of electrical power. The Razor E300 can get up to 15 miles per hour in speed.
Razor E300S Seated Electric Scooter	Even better? Unlike the previous Razor electric scooter models, this one isn’t a kick start. It starts immediately while in standing position, and then you’re on your way. The Razor E300S Electric Scooter is, once again, very similar to the Razor E300 model. It’s motor is also operated on a silent, single speed chain. It also reaches the speeds of up to 15 miles per hour. Pretty much, if you have any questions about the Razor E300S motor, you can also view the Razor E300 motor and find your answers. They’re motors are one in the same.
Black Super Turbo 1000watt Elite 36v	The Black Super Turbo Electric Scooter has been performing very well in this review article. Let’s see how it will hold up on the motor category. Do you remember that the Razor E300 and the Razor E300S have 300 watt motors? Well, the Black Super Turbo Electric Scooter has a spectacular 1,000 watt motor! Obviously, that blows the other two models out of the water! Even more spectacular is that this motor spins at an incredible 3,000rpms. This gives the Black Super Turbo Electric Scooter the power to reach speeds of up to 26 miles per hour. That’s incredible for an electrical scooter such as this!

**Without a shadow of the doubt, we have to award the winner of this category to the Black Super Turbo Electric Scooter. It has the most powerful motor of the three electric scooters.**

Conclusion

Now that you’ve read the article up to this point, you’re probably wondering what we believe to be the best, adult, electric scooter and why.

In our opinion, the best on this list is the Black Super Turbo Electric Scooter. It has proven to be tougher, sturdier and the fastest. It comes with a removable seat and can hold more weight than the Razor E300 or the Razor E300S.

As for speed, it has the best with the capability to reach 26 miles per hour. Not to forget, it has the turbo mode button that helps you to increase speeds while still able to efficiently control and conserve your battery life.

The motor is far more powerful than the 300 watt Razor scooters. With a 1,000 watt, powered motor, the Black Super Turbo Electric Scooter is a real winner.

Even the tires have better tread than the other two. The Black Super Turbo can easily ride through gravel, dirt, potholes and mud and not be phased. However, the Razor E300 and the Razor E300S would do best to remain on solid pavement. They’re tires don’t have the powerful tread of that of the Black Super Turbo Electric Scooter.

Hopefully, you know more about electric scooters for adults and are able to make an easy, informed decision on which one would be best for you!

Happy Shopping!
