TGA Maximo Pavement Mobility Scooter

Our Take

The TGA Maximo is a compact, folding class 2 pavement scooter. It folds down for the car or for easy storage at home. It weighs 42 kg as it stands. The quick-release seat (6.7 kg) and the battery (3.3 kg) both lift off without tools, which brings the folded scooter down to 32 kg. So it suits people who travel and want a scooter that packs away.

It travels at the class 2 pavement limit of 4 mph. A single charge covers around 12 miles, so it suits shorter local trips. It also carries riders up to 133 kg, so it works for a wide range of users. The four-wheel base keeps it steady on pavements.

The main limit is range, so the Maximo is best for quick outings close to home. It also works best on smooth, flat surfaces. The folding design gets it into a car boot, but 32 kg is a substantial lift even with the seat and battery off — worth trying before you buy if you will be loading it alone. For a dismantling alternative, also compare the TGA Zest Plus.

If the TGA Maximo appeals mainly for how easily it packs away, it’s worth seeing what else does the same job. The Drive Medical Scout comes apart into liftable pieces and the eFOLDi Lite eFOLDi comes in lighter at 16kg, while the Electric Mobility/Rascal Vippi splits down to about 15.4kg a part. It’s worth a quick look at each before you decide.

As an easy-to-transport scooter, the TGA Maximo is made for popping in the car and heading off. Still, it’s always worth sitting on one and giving it a go before deciding. Find local dealers and prices through our Find this Product Near Me search, and see Buyer’s Guide for pointers on choosing.
