Types of electric scooters
Seated electric scooters: where the scooter ends and the moped begins
Profile of seated electric scooters: three meanings of the term — factory-seated kick-scooters (Razor EcoSmart Metro HD, EcoSmart SUP), accessory seats on stand-up machines (Wolf Throne for Kaabo, seat kit for the EMOVE Cruiser), and machines that have legally crossed into the L1e-B moped class (Segway eMoped C80) or into the e-bike class (DYU D3F). Why adding a seat in the EU automatically changes the legal status of the machine via EU 168/2013, how this works in the UK (CBT, AM category) and how the class differs from the medical mobility scooter.
