From our urban centres to our suburban streets, the electric scooter (e-scooter) is fast becoming the vehicle of choice for riders of all ages.

So why are so many people adopting e-scooters as a preferred mode of transport?

Daxys Bandicoot The first cab off the rank is a new player on the block from Australian company Daxys. Pitched at riders over the age of 16, it houses a meaty 500W motor and can reach a range of 55km. It has a unique suspension system and 10-inch tubeless tyres to avoid punctures – just what you don’t want on an e-scooter. It will breeze up hills of up to 20 degrees and comes with front and rear indicators and a bell. The Bandicoot can be set to three different speeds and can reach 25kph. Max speed: 25kph Range: 55km Weight: 24.6kg Load: 120kg IP rating: IPX5 Charge time: 6 hours
