With summer right around the corner and there being lighter nights and warmer days there’s never been a better time to get your hands on your new electric scooter.

Below are our thoughts on the best E-Scooter on the market for under £1000.

Aovo Pro 2  

The Aovo Pro 2 is priced at just £379 and is the best pick for beginners just starting their journey with E-Scooters, this beauty has a range of 21.5 miles meaning you can use it for your short daily commute to work and back no problem and will even get a few days out of it without needing to charge it. In regard to charging time, the Aovo takes between 5-6 hours to be at full charge so you could leave it overnight or charge it as soon as you’re done using it and unplug it before bed.

The speed of a scooter can be daunting for a first time E-Scooter user but don’t worry, with the Aovo Pro 2 there are 3 different speed modes meaning you can set your max speed and only go as fast as you wish, the max speed the scooter can go is 19mph. The 3 speed modes include eco, slow and sport. The scooter has honeycomb tyres which are anti-puncture and anti-skid meaning when you walk away with your new Aovo Pro 2 you won’t need to worry about bursting a tyre and needing to make a visit to our Skootz store for a repair, so in the long run these will save you money. This scooter has a 350W direct wheel motor meaning the power drives from the front wheel.

Please note: All of the specs listed are subject to a number of things such as the weight of the person using the scooter, the terrain the scooter is being driven on and the weather.

The Aovo Pro 2 also comes with a Bluetooth app that’s available for Apple and Android that you connect via your phone which allows you to lock and unlock the scooter, turn your LED lights on and off which are located at the front and back of the scooter, set your speed with your speed modes and change your digital dash to show mph or kmph. This is a real selling point for us!
