Spotlight on: All-Terrain Scooters
Mobility scooters can make a huge and immediate difference to your movement and your independence. As a mobility aid they are effective, powerful vehicles, with life changing benefits.
There are many different types of mobility scooters. These include:
- Car boot scooters
- 4mph scooters
- 6-8mph scooters
- All-terrain scooters
Though there are many options, a long-standing customer favourite has to be the all-terrain mobility scooter. These models are the elite choice when it comes to choosing the ultimate mobility scooter.
Customers choose an all-terrain mobility scooter for their power, speed, safety and comfort.
Read on to learn all about the benefits of an all-terrain mobility scooter and which ones we recommend.
All-Terrain Mobility Scooters
An all-terrain mobility scooter is the perfect choice for those who enjoy adventure and living life to the full.
Modern engineering and high-spec features make these scooters the vehicle of choice for outgoing, active customers.
Explore Wide
Bumpy boardwalks along the coast? Steep uphill climbs to town? Muddy, uneven, gravelled pathways surrounding your home?
All-terrain mobility scooters are built to tackle all these landscapes. Powerful batteries, high ground clearance and large, robust tyres offer durability and stability.
Even better, all-terrain mobility scooters are usually fitted with high quality, all-around suspension. Coupled with a wide and luxurious captain's seat, this means that even the bumpiest of routes is smooth sailing.
Explore Far
All terrain mobility scooters are designed with long journeys in mind. They are fitted with larger batteries that allow them to travel further for longer. This makes them a great choice if you frequently visit loved ones who live further away.
A long range also means that a single charge can last you a lot longer than most other mobility scooters. If you've powered your batteries overnight, you can confidently spend most of the day out and about on your scooter.

Get On the Road
The main reason why many customers choose an all-terrain mobility scooter is road travel. As a class 3 mobility scooter, these models are allowed to be driven along main roads and low speed dual carriageways.
All-terrain mobility scooters normally have a top speed of 8mph. Once you're in the driving seat, you'll realise how much faster this feels than it sounds!
If you're using your scooter on the roads alongside cars you'll need to keep your amber lights flashing at all times. You will also need to follow the highway code.

As with any road approved vehicle, an all-terrain mobility scooter is fitted with appropriate safety mechanisms as standard. These can include:
- Indicators & horn
- Hazard warning lights
- Front and rear lights
- Advanced braking systems
- Rearview mirrors
When using your all-terrain mobility scooter in pedestrianised areas, it's important to maintain good driving etiquette. Make use of mirrors and horns to avoid obstacles and ensure a clear route.
You'll also need to reduce your speed to a maximum of 4mph. This is still much faster than a walking pedestrian, so always stay alert to keep you and those around you safe.
Hiring a class 3, road safe mobility scooter is a smart, practical option if you live off the beaten track. It’s also a good choice for customers who need to transition off and onto the road to reach local amenities.
The flexibility to drive both on-road and off-road is a fantastic benefit of all-terrain mobility scooters. Read more about on-road versus off-road scooters here.
