Drive Devilbiss Astrolite Lightweight Mobility Scooter

Our Take

The Drive Devilbiss Astrolite Lightweight Mobility Scooter is a compact, light four-wheel scooter. It’s a Class 2 model. So it runs on pavements at up to 4 mph. However, it isn’t made for the road. The four wheels give it a steady, easy ride.

The scooter carries users up to 120 kg. Meanwhile, a full charge covers around 11.4 miles. That’s enough for shopping and local outings.

It weighs 27.6 kg without its battery, or 29.6 kg with the standard pack fitted. It also splits into six parts for the car without tools, and the heaviest piece is the front section at 9.9 kg. So most people can load it into a boot without a ramp or hoist. It’s lighter than most, too, so handling stays easier than a full-size model.

The Drive Devilbiss Astrolite Lightweight Mobility Scooter suits someone who wants a lighter scooter for smooth pavements. So if your trips stay short and local, it fits well. Buyers who need a longer range or road use should look at a larger model instead.

The Drive Devilbiss Astrolite Lightweight is at its best on everyday local trips, and it isn’t the only scooter that suits that kind of use. The CareCo LiTech Air is closely comparable and the Electric Mobility/Rascal Smilie is a little heavier at 44kg, while the Freerider Mayfair Evolution sits in much the same bracket. It’s worth a quick look at each before you decide.

For everyday trips to the shops, the Drive Devilbiss Astrolite Lightweight is an easy, manageable choice. Still, it’s always worth sitting on one and giving it a go before deciding.
