Choose your next scooter

Do you live in the city and are looking for a simple and fast way to get around without breaking the bank? Or are you simply looking for information to gift or treat yourself to the scooter of your dreams?

Shapeheart is here to shed some light and help you discover all types of scooters on the market! The goal: to make you a true scooter expert and impress everyone around you!

The classic

Gas-powered scooter

You know them all — they're probably the ones you encounter most in your daily life: gasoline-powered scooters. These vehicles are traditionally powered by an internal combustion engine running on gasoline. They are generally more powerful than electric scooters, offering better speed and greater range, making them suitable for longer trips or rides on faster roads.

Downsides of these scooters: exhaust emissions (not the most eco-friendly) and the need to refuel with gasoline.

The modern touch

Electric scooters

Increasingly popular in recent years, scooters have made a name for themselves on the wide avenues of Paris. Thanks to their low environmental impact and relatively low running costs, these vehicles are gradually carving out a place in the two-wheeler market. They are powered by an electric motor driven by a rechargeable battery, making them quiet, eco-friendly and economical to use. They are generally suited for urban travel and short distances.

The perfect vehicle if you're looking for an ideal companion for your daily commutes.

TEENS' FAVORITE

50cc scooter

In the family of petrol scooters, we find 50cc scooters. These types of petrol scooters are often used by teenagers, students, and novice riders due to their small size and low power. They are generally limited to a maximum speed of 45 km/h in many countries and often only require a specific driving license for 50cc scooters.

Perfect for short trips in the city, but generally not suitable for long distances or faster roads. So if you need a means of transport for short daily commutes... you've found your companion!

Getting serious!

Three-wheeled scooter

Three-wheeled scooters, also known as trike scooters, are scooters that have three wheels instead of two (which isn't simpler to explain).

The small advantage of these vehicles is their stability compared to that of the usual two-wheelers. This feature is a real plus for less experienced riders or those looking for a more stable option. Some three-wheeled scooters also offer additional storage space and better stability in corners, making them popular for longer journeys or for users who need to carry luggage!

For adventure enthusiasts

All-terrain scooter

Off-road scooters are designed for off-road use, far from daily city commutes. What sets them apart from other scooters? Their build! They are equipped with: all-terrain tires, reinforced suspension, fenders, additional headlights and rear lights.

This true adventurer's setup makes them suited for riding on rough terrain, such as dirt tracks, mountain trails, or camping grounds. Off-road scooters offer increased mobility in challenging environments and can be used for hiking, hunting, exploration, or other outdoor activities!
The Rambo of scooters!

You now know the main types of scooters available on the market! Still unsure? Before taking the plunge, be sure to consider certain criteria to make the most suitable choice:

Its intended use (for what distances), your riding experience, your budget, and your environment (what types of roads are nearby).
