Detailed description
The Drive InstaFold is designed to be a practical travel scooter. The folding mechanism is motorised and operated by a remote control key fob or by a folding button located on the battery pack. This means a single person can fold or unfold the scooter in seconds, helping to reduce handling time when preparing for transport or storage.
Construction uses a lightweight aluminium frame to keep the overall scooter weight to 25 kgs (55 lbs). A built-in carrying handle makes lifting easier for short transfers into a car boot. When folded, the scooter measures 870mm (length) x 400mm (height) x 460mm (width), giving a compact package for tighter storage spaces.
Power comes from a lightweight lithium-ion battery weighing 1.8 kgs. The maximum range is up to 10 miles (16 kms) on a full charge. The manufacturer describes the battery as airline-friendly; always check the specific airline rules and local regulations before travel with any lithium battery.
Controls include an easy-to-read display, variable speed settings and a height-adjustable tiller so the rider can set a comfortable driving position. The scooter has a top speed of 4 mph and supports a maximum user weight of 120 kgs (19 stone). Seat width and depth are 350mm x 440mm (14" x 17"). Overall length and width are 950mm x 460mm (37.5" x 18").
Design aims to suit both indoor and outdoor use on smooth pavements and in pedestrian areas. The InstaFold is available in Red or Black and presents a modern, practical styling intended for everyday travel and visits.
