ScootNGo Folo Folding Mobility Scooter

What is the ScootNGo Folo folding mobility scooter?

The ScootNGo Folo is a lightweight folding mobility scooter built for riders who want more room and support than an ultra-compact travel scooter gives. It has a lightweight, aircraft-grade aluminum frame, a 180W brushless rear-wheel-drive motor and one removable 24V 12Ah lithium battery.

The ScootNGo Folo sits in the middle of the ScootNGo range. It carries more weight than the ScootNGo Lite and keeps a simpler design than the smart-feature ScootNGo Voyager.

Seniors and adults across Canada use the ScootNGo Folo for groceries, malls, medical appointments, theme parks and cruises. It arrives ready to ride, so you unfold it, switch on the battery and go.

Who is the ScootNGo Folo mobility scooter best for?

The ScootNGo Folo is best for riders up to 298 lb (135 kg) and between 5’1″ and 5’11” tall who want a portable scooter with a roomier seat. It suits people who found other lightweight travel scooters too cramped or too small for their weight, but still want a lightweight mobility scooter they can fold.

• Bigger riders: the 298 lb capacity is one of the highest of any lightweight 50 lb folding mobility scooter.
• Taller riders: ample legroom and an adjustable tiller fit riders up to 5’11”.
• Travellers: anyone flying, driving or cruising who wants their own portable travel mobility scooter instead of renting one at the destination, with an airline-friendly battery.
• Caregivers: families who want a loved one to move independently instead of being pushed in a manual wheelchair.

How much does the ScootNGo Folo weigh, and will it fit in my car?

The ScootNGo Folo weighs 50.16 lb (22.8 kg) with the battery and about 44 lb (20 kg) without it. The battery weighs 6.06 lb (2.75 kg), so you can remove it first and lift a more lightweight frame.

Folded, the ScootNGo Folo lies flat at about 39.4″ long × 20.1″ wide × 12.6″ high (100 × 51 × 32 cm). That low, flat shape slides into the trunk of most sedans, hatchbacks, SUVs and minivans, and it stores under a bed or in a closet.

Many owners lift the ScootNGo Folo alone, but some prefer a second person. If lifting 44 lb is a concern, call us and we will help you compare lighter options.

Is the ScootNGo Folo airline approved for travel from Canada?

The ScootNGo Folo uses one removable 24V 12Ah lithium battery of about 288 Wh. That is under the 300 Wh limit many airlines set for a single mobility-aid battery, which is why ScootNGo markets the Folo as flight approved with its standard battery.

Airlines still make the final call, and airline rules differ between carriers. Call your airline 24–48 hours before you fly, tell them you are travelling with a lithium-battery folding mobility scooter, and ask how they want the battery packed.

Most travellers gate-check the folded ScootNGo Folo and carry the battery in the cabin. For your rights when flying with a mobility aid in Canada, read the Canadian Transportation Agency’s guide to travelling with mobility aids.

How far and how fast does the ScootNGo Folo go?

The ScootNGo Folo goes up to 15 miles (24 km) on a full charge, with a top speed of 3.7 mph (6 km/h). That covers a full day of shopping, cruise travel around a ship or a long airport terminal on travel days.

Real range depends on rider weight, hills, tire pressure and temperature. In a Canadian winter, lithium batteries lose range in the cold, so charge and store the battery indoors at room temperature.

Charging takes about 5–6 hours with the included 24V 2A charger. You can charge the battery on the ScootNGo Folo or take it inside, which helps if you park in a garage.

ScootNGo Folo vs ScootNGo Lite vs ScootNGo Voyager

The ScootNGo Folo is the roomy, higher-capacity choice, the ScootNGo Lite is the lightest and fastest, and the ScootNGo Voyager adds smart features. All three are lightweight folding mobility scooters with removable lithium batteries built for travel across Canada.

ScootNGo Folo or a folding power wheelchair?

A mobility scooter like the ScootNGo Folo is steered with a tiller and works best for people who can sit upright and use both hands. A folding power wheelchair is driven with a joystick, turns in a tighter space and gives more body support.

If you need joystick control, compare our lightweight power wheelchairs, including the 33 lb carbon-fibre Travel Buggy AeroLux 2C.
