20 mph Mobility Scooters

Every machine on this page reaches at least 20 mph. A standard mobility scooter tops out between 4 and 8 mph, so this is a different class of vehicle, built for riders who want to keep up with neighborhood traffic, cover real distance in one trip, or ride trails and open ground rather than sidewalks. Prices run from $2,499 to $19,700.

The list covers three kinds of machine. Seated Pushpak trikes carry two or three passengers at 25 to 30 mph with 50 mile range. MIA four wheel drive models are the fastest here at 32 to 45 mph, though US units ship limited to 25 mph. Stand up boards from CycleBoard and folding all terrain EZ-Raiders fill the middle at 24 to 28 mph.

Speeds shown are the manufacturer top speed on level ground. Real speed drops with rider weight, hills and battery charge. Check your state and local rules before riding any of these on a public road or sidewalk.

What 20 mph actually means on a mobility scooter

Most mobility scooters sold in the US run between 4 and 8 mph, because that is walking pace and it is what sidewalk and indoor use calls for. Our wider fastest mobility scooters collection starts at 10 mph and covers everything above that. This page is the narrow end of it, only the machines that reach 20 mph and up.

Crossing 20 mph changes the machine, not just the number. You get a bigger motor, hydraulic disc brakes instead of drum brakes, a longer wheelbase for stability, and pneumatic tires with real tread. It also changes where you can ride. At these speeds most of these are road or private property machines rather than sidewalk machines, and several models ship with lights, mirrors and turn signals for that reason.

The 25 mph and up models

MIA FOUR X4 at 45 mph, from $8,450

MIA FOUR X4 4x4 four-wheel drive all-terrain mobility scooterGray MIA SPYQE 2x4 electric scooter showing strong frame wide tires and dual motor power

The MIA range is the fastest thing on this page. The FOUR X4 runs a 7200W four wheel drive setup, one motor per wheel, with double wishbone suspension, a 30 degree climbing grade and 60 miles per charge. The two wheel drive FOUR X2 at $5,950 and FOUR X2 GT at $6,450 carry the same 45 mph rating on a lighter frame.

Read the speed number carefully. MIA units sold in the US ship limited to 25 mph to stay inside road rules, so 45 mph is the unrestricted capability of the machine rather than what you will ride out of the crate. The folding SPYQE at $3,495 and SPYQE GT at $3,995 are rated 32 mph under the same limit, and both fold to 17.3 inches for a trunk or a closet.

Pushpak 7000 at 30 mph, from $8,495

Pushpak 7000 enclosed cabin three-passenger fast mobility scooterPushpak 4000 Three-Passenger Recreational Mobility Scooter 

The Pushpak trikes are the seated option, and the only machines here that carry passengers. The enclosed cabin Pushpak 7000 is the fastest of them at 30 mph with a full lighting package, room for three and 43 miles per charge. Everything else in the range runs 25 mph with up to 50 miles of range.

Weight capacity is the reason most people buy these. The Pushpak 4000 at $5,095 and the 3500 at $4,895 are rated 770 lbs, and the Pushpak 6000 at $5,295 reaches 990 lbs on a 1000W motor. That is total load across every rider and everything carried, which is what makes them work as a two person or three person vehicle rather than a scooter with a bench.

EZ-Raider HD4 at 28 mph, from $19,700

EZ-Raider HD4 heavy-duty off-road foldable scooter, front side viewGray CycleBoard X-Quad 3000 electric scooter with fat tires and fenders

The EZ-Raider models are folding standing decks built for ground that stops a wheeled scooter. The HD4 reaches 28 mph on a 1200W drive with hydraulic dual piston brakes, 9.5 inch ground clearance and 50 miles of range. The HD2 at $15,900 runs 25 mph and the LW at $11,375 runs 24 mph on a lighter frame.

CycleBoard covers the same idea for a fifth of the money. The X-Quad 3000 at $4,295 hits 27 mph across five ride modes with 3000W of peak power and 50 miles of range, the golf caddy version at $4,499 adds a bag mount and a 3 year parts warranty, and the three wheel Rover at $2,499 is the cheapest way onto this page at 25 mph.

RMB Kodiak at 24 mph, from $5,999

The RMB Multi Point AWD Kodiak sits between the two groups. It is a seated recreational trike with a motor on each rear wheel, 24 mph with both engaged, a two speed control switch and a removable 48V lithium pack good for 31 miles. If you want a seat and a backrest but do not need to carry a passenger, this is the one to look at first.

Choosing between them

Start with whether you need to sit down. Riders who need a seat, a backrest and somewhere to put a bag are choosing between the Pushpak trikes and the RMB Kodiak. Riders who can stand and want the machine to fold are looking at MIA, EZ-Raider and CycleBoard.

Then check weight. The standing models are rated 300 to 440 lbs, which is normal for a single rider but leaves no room for a passenger. The Pushpak trikes are rated 500 to 990 lbs, so they hold two or three people. If total load matters more than speed, our 600 lb capacity mobility scooters page compares that side directly.

Last, decide how much of the speed you will really use. A 45 mph rating that ships limited to 25 mph and a machine built for 25 mph get you to the same place. What separates them at that point is range, brakes, suspension and whether the thing folds.

Common questions

Which of these is the quickest?

The MIA FOUR X4 is rated 45 mph, though US units are limited to 25 mph. Among machines that ride at their full rating out of the crate, the Pushpak 7000 is the fastest at 30 mph.

Can I ride a 20 mph scooter on the sidewalk?

In most places no. Sidewalk rules generally assume walking pace, and at 20 mph and above these are treated as road or off road vehicles depending on your state. Several models here ship with lights, mirrors and signals so they can be registered where that is allowed. Check your own state and city rules before you buy.

Do these need a license or insurance?

It depends on the state and on how you ride. A machine used on private property or trails usually needs neither. A machine registered for road use often needs both. We can tell you what each model is set up for, but the registration question has to be answered by your state DMV.

Are any of these covered by Medicare?

No. Medicare covers mobility equipment prescribed for use inside the home, and nothing on this page qualifies. These are recreational and outdoor machines bought out of pocket.

What is the real range at full speed?

Lower than the number on the spec sheet. Range figures are measured at moderate speed with a light rider on level ground. Riding at 25 mph, carrying a passenger or climbing hills can cut it close to half. Buy for the range you need on your worst day, not your best one.
