Freerider Kensington S2 Roadworthy Mobility Scooter
Our Take
The Freerider Kensington S2 is a smart-looking Class 3 scooter for road and pavement. It reaches 8 mph on the road, so it keeps pace on quieter streets. Four wheels and a low stance give it a confident, planted feel.
Range is a strong point. A single charge covers about 20 miles, which comfortably handles a full day out. Meanwhile, the frame carries riders up to 160 kg.
At 109 kg with its batteries in — 78 kg with them out — the Kensington S2 stays in one piece. So you’ll load it with a ramp rather than lifting it, and it needs covered storage between trips.
Choose the Freerider Kensington S2 if you want long range and road speed with a bit of style. It rewards owners who have space to store and charge it. However, if you need a scooter that packs into a car, a folding travel model works better.
Buyers after a robust scooter like the Freerider Kensington S2 often weigh it against a couple of similarly sturdy options. The Horizon Mobility Aztec 2 Off Road is heavier at 120kg and the Horizon Mobility Saxon 2 Off Road is closely comparable, while the Pride Mobility Colt Pursuit comes in lighter at 78.5kg. Any of them would suit much the same use.
The Freerider Kensington S2 is a robust, substantial scooter made to take on more. As ever, the best way to judge a scooter is to try it for yourself. The Find this Product Near Me search finds dealers in your area to compare on price, and Buyer’s Guide runs through what matters.
