This is more convenient for the elderly to buy groceries and transport children to school.

But the speed of this mobility scooter is relatively low, with a general speed of 20-25 km / h. But for the elderly, this speed is the most convenient. But for the elderly, this speed is acceptable.

And this mobility scooter generally does not have a canopy. If it is raining, we have a lot of trouble driving. And three-wheeled mobility scooter parking is not very convenient. If pushed to the underground garage is more inconvenient.
