A Quick Look at the Afiscooter C3

When you entrust your mobility to the Afikim C3/Afiscooter C3, you get far more than just a way to get from place to place. This device is designed to be your constant companion while running errands or just enjoying a day out of the house. The Afikim C3/Afiscooter C3 is built with both versatility and comfort throughout. When traveling around town, users enjoy the ability to get around quickly with speed capabilities of up to 9.3mph. Speed combined with the ultra-comfortable captain’s seat, the Afiscooter C3 can take you anywhere you want to be without letting you down. The Afiscooter C3 is made to be a more robust machine and although it may look intimidating to operate, nothing could be simpler. The dash system of the Afikim C3/Afiscooter C3 is made to be uncomplicated, so piloting the device is easy for anyone. A simple power indicator along with easily accessible safety features such as a horn, headlight, and rear view mirrors remain uncomplicated. Forward motion is derived from the right handle while reverse is designated to the left hand. Comfort is further enhanced by the Afiscooter C3’s all terrain wheels and suspension system. No matter what terrain you find yourself on, you will enjoy an ultimately smooth ride and overall comfort at all times. The small 50” turning radius is a huge advantage as well and gives the Afiscooter C3 the ability to be both a commercial-indoor, and outdoor mobility device. The Afiscooter C3 has been designed to be among the top rated, most heavy duty mobility devices on the market today.

Swivel Seating on the Afiscooter C3

Part of the problem with many mobility devices is the difficulty of getting in or getting out of the vehicle. It is great that some offer the ability to flip up the armrests to assist, but the Afiscooter C3 is designed to do even more for the user. Instead of simply flipping up the armrests and sliding out, the Afiscooter C3 goes a step further by providing a swivel seat. This feature helps users exit and enter the vehicle in the safest manner. They can adjust the chair to their needs without fear of becoming unbalanced when loading or unloading. In addition to the swivel seating feature, the Afiscooter C3 maintains a slip resistant floor, so when a user is getting in or out, they can do so on a sure footed format. These features enable the Afiscooter C3 to help keep rider safe at all times and ensure the experience of using the scooter is a truly positive one.

Not Your Average Mobility Scooter

Upon looking at the Afiscooter C3, it is easy to see why this is not just an average mobility device. The heavy duty format of the scooter is designed to carry up to 400 lbs. with ease. Some scooters seem to limit the ability of the user to get their daily tasks accomplished without having to charge the device throughout the day. The Afiscooter C3 is designed differently and has a range of up to 25 miles, so whether you are running local errands, or taking the device on a longer journey, you can do so with confidence.

What About Maneuverability?

Possibly one of the biggest questions regarding the robust design of the Afiscooter C3 is its overall maneuverability rating. Although the scooter is designed to be a heavy duty, ultra strong model, it is also designed to be a maneuverability marvel. Due to the three wheel design of the Afiscooter C3, it is able to turn around in just 50”, so turning is rarely a problem. The Afiscooter C3 will take you anywhere you want to go without compromising on the need for optimal maneuverability.

How fast does the Afiscooter C3 go?

At full speed, you can reach 9.3 mph top speed. Afiscooter C models have a half speed setting, for confined areas, and a full speed setting for when you want to go fast. You will find some other brands offer scooters that go faster than this, however high quality brands put a high emphasis on safety too. In order for a mobility scooter to go faster than around 10 mph, heavy investment must be made to ensure it stays just as safe. For this reason, the more reputable and safe a brand, the more they cap the top speed of their mobility scooters.

How long do the Afiscooter C3 batteries last per charge? How many years of use can I get out of the batteries?

Battery running time per charge is measured in miles as opposed to time i.e. how many miles can a fully charged set of batteries take the scooter? The answer depends on the user’s weight as well as the kind of terrain the scooter is operated upon. However, manufacturers try to take an average of these factors so you can get an idea. Afiscooter is pretty honest in the figure they give, unlike other manufacturers who exaggerate and bloat their figures. On this scooter, you also have the voice of standard range batteries or upgraded range batteries. For an Afiscooter C3 with standard range batteries, the batteries last: 25 miles. For an Afiscooter C3 with upgrade range batteries, the batteries last: 37 miles. The lifetime of your Afiscooter C batteries is approximately 2 years, but very much depends on how much you use your scooter and whether you take good care of your batteries. The cost of replacing a set of Afiscooter C batteries is approximately $300 for standard range and $400 for longer range. Note: It doesn’t matter which batteries you initially bought your scooter with, you can change to upgrade/standard whenever you want.

What kind of batteries are used in the Afiscooter C3?

This mobility scooter generally uses gel-cell Sealed Lead Acid (SLA) batteries by MK Battery. These batteries are maintenance free, meaning you don’t need to add water to them or anything like that. They happily stay under their shroud for the duration of their lifetime and you shouldn’t need to do anything to them at all. MK Battery is the leading, and most expensive brand in the industry and we’re proud to have their batteries in this scooter. Gel-cell is an excellent battery technology for a heavy duty application like powering the C3. Gel-cell is a superior technology when compared to Absorbant Glass Matt (AGM) batteries, and has advantages over lithium-ion batteries too. Lithium-ion batteries are not used, primarily due to cost. With batteries expiring after 2-3 years, the cost of replacing lithium batteries for a machine this size would run into several thousand dollars, vs. gel-cell which is more around the $500 mark.

Will the Afiscooter C seat fit me?

The Afiscooter C comes in 2 seat widths - 18” or 20”. Most people go for the standard 18” seat. If you weigh above 250 lbs, you might be better off on a 20” seat. The seat has sliders to move you closer or further away from the controls, so whether you’re a short or tall person, you’ll feel just right.

I’m a tall person. Will there be enough legroom for me in the Afiscooter C?

The distance from seat to tiller on the Afiscooter C is above average when compared with other scooters of this type. You can also slide the seat right back to its furthest position and ask to have the seat post set to the highest position so your long legs have more room. We are personally happy to recommend the C to anyone up to 6’1” tall. If you are taller than this, please call us to get further information 1-888-233-5563.

How much weight can the Afiscooter C3 carry?

The weight capacity of the Afikim C3 mobility scooter is 400 lbs.

What kind of ground clearance does the Afiscooter C3 have? Is it good for paths and trails?

The C3 has 4 inches of ground clearance. It will cope on grass, gravel, and dirt paths, however, there are other mobility scooters that would perform better in this terrain. Our all-terrain mobility scooters are a suitable option.

How big is the Afiscooter C3? Will it fit indoors and how sharp does it turn?

The C3 sits somewhere on the fence with regard to indoor use. If you have a large house, it could work, though it is on the larger side compared with indoor scooters. This scooter will work in indoor settings such as stores and supermarkets. The turning radius of Afikim C3/Afiscooter C3 is 50”.

Options & Upgrades

Accessories

How do I add accessories to the Afiscooter C3? Which Accessories are available?

A full list of accessories can be seen in the options and upgrades for this product HERE.

Do you offer any free accessories with the Afiscooter C3?

Yes! We offer an armrest saddle bag free with every Afiscooter purchase.

Will the accessories ship together and installed on the Afiscooter C3?

With standard delivery, accessories are not assembled on the scooter at time of delivery. With white glove delivery, Afiscooter accessories will be attached and Diestco accessories can be attached by request.

How to Purchase & What's Included

Why is the Afiscooter C3 so expensive?

We sell all our scooters at the minimum price (MAP) the manufacturer allows us to advertise for. If we advertise for cheaper, we could be prosecuted. This means we are cheaper or at the same price as all dealers complying with the rules. If you find another site selling for cheaper, we will price match, so long as they are within MAP. Scooters can be expensive because of the following reasons: Afikim / Afiscooter is a premium brand that has a strong focus on top-notch luxury and very quality components. The motors on these scooters are very powerful, they are really built to last, and the warranty policy is the best in the industry. In addition, the recent skyrocketing of shipping prices, coupled with rising inflation, have made these scooters significantly more expensive than they were, say one year ago. We do offer cheaper scooters by other brands, but if quality and comfort are your most important priorities, we highly recommend the Afiscooter brand.

Does Medicare/Medicaid or private insurance help pay for the Afiscooter C3?

Many heavy-duty/recreational mobility scooters do not qualify as medical devices under Medicare/Medicaid and private insurance strict rules. Though you might be disabled and using the device in a full medical sense, Medicare/Medicaid and private insurance seem to want to save as much money as they can, and do so by making the rules about which models qualify very strict. You might have spent significant time trying to find a Medicare/Medicaid provider online, to no avail. This is because it’s actually very hard for dealers to become Medicare providers, again making it hard for patients to get free scooters, again saving the insurance money. We don’t work with Medicare. We also do not bill private insurances directly. Some private insurances may reimburse you outside of Medicare’s framework. To check if your insurer does this, we recommend contacting them directly and asking. If they say yes, we’re happy to provide invoices/proof of purchases so you can get your money back from your insurer. Here’s a full disclaimer with regard to Medicare/Medicaid: Notice to Medicare/Medicaid Beneficiaries. Medicare will pay for medical equipment and supplies only if a supplier has a Medicare supplier number. Heavy Duty Mobility does not have a Medicare supplier number. Medicare will not pay for any medical equipment and supplies we sell or rent to you. You will be personally and fully responsible for payment.

What do I need to do to purchase the Afiscooter C3 scooter online/over the phone?

To purchase over the phone, simply call our toll-free number 1-888-233-5563 and we can help you from there. If you are sure about the model you want, all we would need is your payment method (easiest is credit card or cash/checking account card) and your shipping address. If you aren’t quite sure which model to choose, we can offer suggestions and advice to your heart’s content - until you’re perfectly satisfied.

What happens after my order for the Afiscooter C3 is placed?

After your order for the C3 is placed, you will see a screen that looks like this one:
You will also receive an email confirmation, detailing the item you brought and the price you paid. The email will come from: support@heavydutymobility.com. Your email confirmation will contain instructions regarding delivery, please read these carefully. As soon as your item ships, we will send you an email containing a tracking link. Clicking on this link will allow you to track the shipping progress of your scooter. The vast majority of Afiscooter shipments are done through R&L carriers rlcarriers.com. If you chose standard, curbside delivery at checkout: The shipping company will call you to schedule a delivery appointment - you don’t have to take the first day available - you can delay receiving your scooter for a couple of days if that works better for you. We will also provide you with their number so you can call to preemptively arrange an appointment, or incase they fail to call you. The shipping company will call you usually within an hour of delivery, to let you prepare yourself at the curbside nearest to your home. The truck (very often an 18-wheeler) will deposit your scooter on the curbside, on a wooden crate. For more info on unpacking, see the question below “How does the C3 arrive, is any setup required?” If you choose White Glove Delivery at checkout: The scooter will be sent to a technician in your area for setup. Once they have set it up (usually 1-2 business days), they will give you a call to arrange delivery. You have paid for a premium service, so here you can really ask the tech to deliver at any time that suits you, delay for some time if you aren’t ready for delivery, etc. If in doubt, just call us at 1-888-233-5563. At the time of delivery appointment, the local technician will bring the scooter right into your house, wherever you want it. In most cases, the tech will be able to advise you on how to operate the scooter.

  • Batteries are included and installed.

You can see the minimum amount per month, above, next to the price of the scooter. It’s a simple online process, usually with an instant eligibility response, but many less tech-savvy customers prefer help over the phone. [xyz-ihs snippet="Live-chat-two"]

Shipping, Warranty & Returns

Shipping

How long from the time of order until I get my Afiscooter C3 mobility scooter?

This very much depends on two factors: the stock status above and how far you are from Florida, where most Afiscooters ship out from. Bear in mind, different colors of the same model can have different stock statuses. Also bear in mind that if you add certain customizations, these can increase the time it takes for the team to assemble your scooter at the warehouse. The stock status for this scooter can be seen just under the product title at the top of the page.
  • This item can ship out as soon as the same business day the order is placed. Once shipped out, you can expect a transit time 4-5 business days.Please note these are indicative times and can vary based on how far you are from the supplier warehouse and the volume of orders being received. Also note that upgrades or extra accessory additions to your order may require extra time for installation.
  • If an Afiscooter is showing LEAD TIME with a number of weeks indicated, the estimated ship out time is that lead time plus standard ship out and transit time indicated in the paragraph above.

    [xyz-ihs snippet="Live-Chat"]

    Please note, we have excellent relationships with our suppliers/manufacturers. If we are showing an item as having a lead time, it’s almost certainly the same for other dealers who might not have the most up-to-date information on the websites and may show the item as having a lead time.

  • If an Afiscooter is showing OUT OF STOCK above, please contact us for more details. You can call us at [xyz-ihs snippet="Live-Chat-three"]

    Please note, we have excellent relationships with our suppliers/manufacturers. If we are showing an item as out of stock, it’s almost certainly the same for other dealers who might not have the most up-to-date information on the websites and may show the item as in stock.

Why are there such long lead times on some mobility scooters?

Covid has dealt a horrible blow to pretty much every industry on the planet. Right from mining materials to processing them to the factories that produce parts, shipping and freight companies - at every stage of the chain there are workforce shortages and severe delays.

My Afiscooter C3 mobility scooter is showing a long lead time above. Why should I buy a scooter now if in any case I won’t get it right away?

Unfortunately, the way things are nowadays, with delays across the entire supply chain, if you wait until there is no lead time on your scooter, you might end up waiting forever. As soon as new stock comes in, it is assigned to orders that were already placed, sometimes weeks in advance. We don’t know how soon the situation will get better - and it may actually get worse before getting better again.

For this reason, customers are placing their orders as soon as they are able, to be placed on the list for as soon as the next scooters are ready to ship.

Where will my Afiscooter C3 mobility scooter ship from?

Afiscooters generally ship from the main warehouse at Daytona Beach, Florida. In some cases, orders for the West Coast are shipped from a warehouse in the vicinity.

Who will ship my Afiscooter C3 mobility scooter?

Afiscooters are almost always shipped by R&L Carriers - a freight and trucking company. In most instances, your scooter is delivered by 18-wheeler, unless you choose white glove delivery.

How will my Afiscooter C3 mobility scooter arrive – is any setup required?

If you choose white glove delivery, your scooter will be 100% ready to ride. With standard delivery, the scooter is pretty much assembled ready to ride, including batteries which are preinstalled. You just need to go through a few simple steps.
  • Your scooter will be boxed in cardboard and fastened with the use of tie-downs. We advise you to come prepared with a sharp pair of scissors/knife.
  • You can simply cut the cardboard box open, cut the tie downs and roll your scooter off the crate.
  • Your scooter will be partially charged, enough to ride it into your home for charging.
  • Note the wheels might have some air let out for safety during transit. You should top them up to the pressure recommended by the manufacturer in the user’s manual.
  • The seat will be folded down. There will be a lever at the side of the seat allowing you to raise it.
  • The tiller may be folded down too. Simply move the tiller into position as per the manual instructions, allowing you to raise it to driving position.
  • There will be a set of keys to turn the scooter on. The keys may be located in the front glove compartment, under the scooter tied down to the crate or inside the rear lockbox.
  • If you added a rear lockbox, this does not come assembled on the scooter but is very easily attached by the use of 4 screws (supplied).
  • Mirrors may need to be screwed into the handlebars.

Live Chat: Click [xyz-ihs snippet="Live-Chat-contact-us"] to speak to a live agent - not a robot.

By our contact form.

How do I book a delivery appointment slot for my Afiscooter C3 mobility scooter?

The shipping company delivering your scooter will call you to arrange delivery. We will also give you their number so you can call them to preemptively arrange an appointment.

What if I miss my delivery appointment slot for my Afiscooter C3 mobility scooter?

If you miss your delivery appointment, the shipping company will usually take your scooter back to their local terminal in your area and try to reschedule an appointment. There is usually no charge for one extra appointment. Please contact us to keep us in the loop if you do miss your appointment so we can ensure the scooter isn’t sent all the way back to the place of origin.

What if my order hasn’t arrived by the time it was supposed to?

Especially since Covid, which made the truck driver shortage issue even worse than it was, your shipment might be delayed. If this happens, please call us 1-888-233-5563, or the number of the shipping company we provide you with so you can get an update on your shipping status.

What happens if my order for an Afiscooter C3 mobility scooter is damaged?

  • When your scooter arrives, do not sign any forms until you have opened the boxes and ascertained that everything is as it should be.
  • If the external boxes are damaged, make sure to note this next to your signature. Make sure to inspect the contents before signing.
  • If your scooter is damaged in a way that the entire scooter needs to be replaced, just refuse the entire delivery.
  • If your scooter is damaged in a way that a spare part needs to be sent out and installed (eg a broken mirror), accept the delivery, and list any damaged items next to your signature.
  • If you find damage after having signed for delivery without any damage notes, this can be really problematic as the shipping company may try to shift the blame onto you. This is why it’s important to check for damage, especially if the outside boxes are damaged.

What happens if my Afiscooter C3 mobility scooter breaks down?

If your scooter malfunctions, please contact us.

Sometimes we are able to troubleshoot with you over the phone to fix the issue. In other cases, it’s a matter of shipping out a simple part, say if a knob needs replacing, under warranty conditions.

If necessary, we will send out a technician to your home to repair your scooter within 2 years of purchase, or longer if you purchased further warranty plans in the “Options & Upgrades” section on this page. This includes everything besides wear & tear (such as seat wear, flat tire etc.) and the batteries, which are covered for 1 year by their manufacturer.

Depending on your location, it might take a few days to locate a local technician, arrange an appointment etc. This warranty service is not intended as an emergency breakdown service. If you are stuck and need urgent help, call 911.

Please note, it’s really important we don’t send technicians out for nothing, so to be open with you from the start, we will let you know that if a technician comes out for a problem which isn’t under warranty or was a user error, you may be charged for this visit.

Do I call you or the manufacturer if my Afiscooter C3 mobility scooter breaks down?

Contact us before contacting the manufacturer.

How long does the warranty on Afiscooter C3 mobility scooter last for? What’s included/excluded from the warranty?

The in-home warranty on all Afiscooter mobility scooters is for 2 years from date of purchase.

This includes everything besides wear & tear (such as seat wear, flat tire etc.) and the batteries, which are covered for 1 year by their manufacturer.

You can also add one extra year of this service as an optional upgrade HERE.

What can I do after the warranty period? Can I get spare parts for Afiscooter C3 mobility scooter? Who repairs these scooters and where?

After the warranty period, you are still welcome to contact us at any time.

Parts are available through us or the manufacturer, though you will be charged for these.

If you need someone to install parts or for other labor services post-warranty, the same local technicians that repair your scooter under warranty can do so at a charge post-warranty.

Technicians are available throughout the contiguous USA.

Contact us for help finding a tech, or for more details.

Returns

What if I don't like my Afiscooter C3 mobility scooter? Can I return or exchange it?

Yes, returns are possible. Please see our returns policy.

Documentation, Manuals & Safety

Documentation

Safety

Do I need vehicle insurance to ride the Afiscooter C3 mobility scooter as is needed with a motor vehicle?

Though we cannot guarantee for all states and localities, wherever we have put this question to the law enforcement of any particular area, we have always been told this scooter does not need insurance.

May the Afiscooter C3 mobility scooter be driven on the road?

Though we cannot guarantee for all states and localities, wherever we have put this question to the law enforcement of any particular area, we have always been told that since this mobility scooter is used by and designed for disabled people, it may be ridden on the road where situations call for it.

May the Afiscooter C3 mobility scooter be driven on pedestrian sidewalks?

Though we cannot guarantee for all states and localities, wherever we have put this question to the law enforcement of any particular area, we have always been told that since this mobility scooter is used by and designed for disabled people, it may be ridden on pedestrian sidewalks, as long as this is done within reason.

This means riding at a safe speed where others are around and being considerate of the other users that share the sidewalk.

How can I avoid my Afiscooter C3 mobility scooter from being stolen?

  • Your Afiscooter C3 mobility scooter comes with a unique ignition key, and much like a car, cannot be started without it.
  • You can easily attach a motion alarm which is triggered if someone moves the scooter whilst it’s locked. For more information on these alarms, please call us at 1-888-233-5563.
  • You can also purchase a GPS tracker which beams the current location of your scooter wherever it is. This way, even if a thief takes your scooter, you and the police can track its exact location.
  • It’s best to store your scooter indoors if you’re able to do so.

Does the Afiscooter C3 mobility scooter have lights for nighttime riding? Does it have turn signals?

Yes, this mobility scooter comes with a full lighting package – a powerful headlight - rear lights as well as front - and rear turn signals. Riding in the dark isn’t for everyone though and you should carefully consider the safety of doing this in your area, even with a full lighting package on your scooter.

Daily Operation & Transportation

Daily Operation

Is the Afiscooter C3 mobility scooter easy to drive? How does acceleration work? How does braking work?

The Afiscooter C3 mobility scooter is super easy to drive and control.

Remember, this is a scooter which was designed from scratch for seniors and those with disabilities. It takes into account that you might have slower reaction times and has automatic braking whenever you let go of the throttle.

It also features half speed mode for confined areas or whilst you’re building up your driving skills and want to go a little slower.

Due to the safety automatic brakes which kick in every time you let go of the throttle, your driving might seem a little jerky at first, but most people catch on very quickly and learn to use the throttle and brakes in a way that gives a smooth ride.

Acceleration/reverse is achieved by a lever in the handlebars, and braking is automatic when you let go of the brakes.

Due to the safety auto brakes which kick in every time you let go of the throttle, your driving might seem a little jerky at first, but most people catch on very quickly and learn to use the throttle and brakes in a way that gives a smooth ride.

I only have use of my left hand. Can the Afiscooter C3 mobility scooter work for left handed users? Can the Afiscooter C3 mobility scooter be operated with one hand?

This scooter uses wig-wag throttle acceleration, meaning you can control it with one hand, without any modifications needed.

Can I ride the Afiscooter C3 mobility scooter in the rain, snow, wind and hot sun?

  • Rain: It’s OK and safe if you get caught in the rain once in a while, or go through an occasional puddle, but you should try to avoid a trip if you know it’s going to rain.
  • Snow and ice: We cannot take responsibility for using the scooter in these kinds of weather conditions.
  • Cold weather: Fine, though it does negatively impact the battery health and lifetime.
  • Wind: Generally not an issue unless very strong winds that could tip the scooter over. If you have a mobility scooter with a canopy, remember, very strong winds can act as a sail to tip over your scooter.
  • Hot sun: No issue as far as the scooter is concerned. Remember to take along ample hydration!

Do the Afiscooter C3 mobility scooter batteries need maintenance?

This mobility scooter uses maintenance-free batteries which do not need any care until they die, after around 2 years of use.

How often should my Afiscooter C3 mobility scooter be inspected?

It’s a good idea to have your scooter checked once a year by a qualified technician.

Call us 1-888-233-5563 to get details on a local technician in your area.

You should also call us or a local tech if you hear strange noises coming out of your scooter.

How many years can I expect the Afiscooter C3 mobility scooter to last me?

Since Afikim/Afiscooter is such a good quality brand, we say you can expect at least 7 years out of your model. We wouldn’t be surprised if yours lasts 10 years or more.

This obviously depends on the way you take care of your scooter amongst other factors.

Transportation

Will the Afiscooter C3 mobility scooter fit in my car trunk/truck bed?

This scooter will not fit in the vast majority of car trunks. It will however fit on most pickup truck beds.

If you’re planning on transporting your mobility scooter on a pickup truck bed, you’ll probably need a ramp to get the scooter up onto the truck bed.

Please contact us for more details at [xyz-ihs snippet="Live-Chat-three"]

I don’t have a large enough vehicle to transport the Afiscooter C3 mobility scooter. What are my options?

  • Electric lift: The most common solution is to purchase a platform-style vehicle lift, which sits on your trailer hitch.

    If you don’t have a trailer hitch on your vehicle, you’ll need to have one installed. The platform lowers right down to road level, you ride the scooter onto the platform, secure the scooter with provided straps and then activate a lift which raises the platform a few feet off the ground. You’ll need a vehicle that can take a max tongue weight of at least 500 lbs, so this won’t work for saloon and hatchback vehicles.

    We have an electric lifts collection.

  • Manual Platform: Like an electric lift, this has a platform which sits on your trailer hitch, but this platform does not rise and decened, instead, it has a built-in ramp which flips out, allowing you to roll the scooter up onto the platform.

    You’ll need a vehicle that can take a max tongue weight of at least 500 lbs, so this won’t work for saloon and hatchback vehicles.

If you see a product advertised online for cheaper we will sell you the product for the same price or cheaper, provided that pricing is not in violation of the manufacturer’s minimum advertised pricing policy.

Is Afiscooter a Good Brand?

The Afiscooter brand shines in pretty much every area, including: Warranty 2 years in-home, bumper-to-bumper (excluding batteries and wear & tear).
