What is the difference between an electric scooter and a balance scooter?
With the development of the times, people's pace of life is getting faster and faster, and urban traffic congestion is getting more and more serious. It is very important to choose a suitable way of travel. A simple and portable means of transportation is the best choice. However, riding a bicycle is too tiring. Electric scooters and balance scooters are among the more popular means of transportation, and are loved by young men and women. Today, let's help you compare which car is more suitable for transportation, a balance scooter or an electric scooter?
1. Carrying capacity
The carrying capacity of self-balancing scooters and electric scooters is not much different, but because the pedals of electric scooters are wider, they can carry two people when needed, so electric scooters have an advantage in carrying capacity.
2. Endurance
The balance scooter has only one driving wheel, and the difference in maximum speed and driving mode, the endurance is usually better than that of electric scooters with the same battery capacity. The longer the endurance of the electric scooter or balance scooter, the corresponding increase in weight. In terms of endurance, the two are relatively consistent.
3. Driving Difficulty
The driving method of electric scooters is similar to that of electric bicycles, and they are even better than electric bicycles in terms of stability, and it is relatively easy to get started. The self-balancing car itself has no control device, and it only relies on the self-balancing function of the computer and the car's induction of the driver's driving intention to brake. Although the driving method of the self-balancing car is relatively new and easier to learn, it still takes a period of practice to control it very accurately. In comparison, electric scooters are easier to drive.
4. Safety Comparison
Both balance cars and electric scooters are new means of transportation. In terms of controlling the car, the balance car needs to be controlled by the center of gravity, and it needs to lean forward and backward to accelerate, decelerate, ride and stop. Users who are just starting to use it still need some time to adapt, but in some places with potholes, it is still a little difficult to control. The braking of the electric scooter is manually operated, and there is a relative brake control. Relatively speaking, the electric scooter has a slight advantage in this aspect.
5. Portability
Compared to electric scooters, the overall size of the balance scooter is relatively small. If the scooter is out of power, it can be carried. Because it is not large, if you carry a backpack of moderate size, you can put it in the bag and carry it on your back to free your hands. Although the electric scooter is designed to be foldable, the folded volume still occupies a certain space. Moreover, it is relatively labor-saving to push the electric scooter when there is no power, so from this aspect, the balance scooter is easier to carry.
Through many aspects of comparison, in actual use, the difference between these two types of products in battery life and carrying capacity is not obvious, but in terms of safety and ease of use, the electric scooter still has a slight advantage. However, in terms of specific use, you should also decide according to your own needs.
