With so many options in the market, it can sometimes be overwhelming to decide which mobility scooter is the best for you! If you are just beginning your search for a scooter, you have come to the right place. The first place we recommend starting when it comes to zeroing in on best options is choosing between a three or four wheel scooter. It may not seem like a huge deal, I mean it is simply just an extra wheel, but it truly does make the biggest difference. The most important aspect of choosing a scooter is ensuring it aligns with your activity and mobility preferences.
Why a Three Wheel Mobility Scooter?
There are two major benefits to choosing a three wheel scooter: 1) Its handling is optimized for indoor areas and traveling across smooth surfaces and 2) It's sharper turning radius allows for more precise movements. In addition, most standard three wheel options have a travel range up to 20 miles off of a single charge. With these benefits in mind, a three wheel mobility scooter may be the best choice for you if you tend to spend most of your time indoors or find yourself constantly navigating tight spaces.
Why a Four Wheel Mobility Scooter?
Likewise to the three wheel option, there are two main benefits to the four wheel mobility scooter design. Because of their wider and studier base, four wheel scooters offer a more stable and smooth ride- especially over rough and rocky terrain. In addition, most four wheel scooters Amica offers come with headlights and swiveling seats for a comfortable entry and exit. So if you find yourself speaking a lot of time outside, perhaps running after your grandkids in the park, a four wheel scooter may be the best option for you!
