Our top 3 best electric scooters for climbing hills

It is estimated that around 13 in every 1,000 Australians aged 18 and over use a mobility scooter every day -- and it’s not just older Australians. A recent survey found that 51% of mobility scooter users are actually aged between 18 and 59. 

With so many Australians using mobility scooters on a daily basis, it’s important that we have mobility scooters that can tackle all kinds of terrain and road conditions -- including hills. Travelling through hilly suburbs can be a real challenge for mobility scooters -- some mobility scooters simply don’t have the power to manage a steep slope. 

If you’re looking for a versatile scooter with enough power to take on hills, we’re here to help. In this blog, we share our three best electric scooters for climbing hills. 

#1. Pride Outback 4-Wheel Scooter

The Pride Outback is easily one of our highest performing mobility scooters for steep hills  -- equipped with front and rear suspension, the Pride Outback can be used to drive around properties, cruising along walking trails and climbing hills. 

It’s an all-terrain solution to everyday mobility -- with a 243cm turning circle, you can manoeuvre this scooter both indoors and outdoors with ease. 

#2. Invacare Comet Alpine+ 4-Wheel Scooter

The Invacare Comet Alpine+ is specifically designed for the challenges of the Great Outdoors. With more power than a traditional scooter, the Comet Alpine+ allows you to climb hills with minimal effort -- featuring dual motors and automatic speed reduction to slow down around corners, there’s nothing you can’t do with the Comet Alpine+. 

#3. Invacare Pegasus Pro 4-Wheel Scooter

Whether you’re travelling into town or cruising through the local park, the Pegasus Pro offers a smooth driving experience. Compared to the previous Pegasus Metro, the Pro has enhanced battery performance and large, all-terrain wheels for those who need extra performance for day-to-day mobility. 

If you’re travelling downhill more than uphill, the Pegasus Pro will prevent free-wheeling and unnecessary accidents -- there is a two-step disengaging lever to protect the user and the scooter if it is knocked out of drive mode. It also has an emergency hand brake to guarantee immediate braking if required.
