For anyone looking for a lightweight, agile, and easily transportable medical mobility scooter Pride Mobility has four different Go Go Scooters that fit the bill. While all Pride Go Go Scooters are quite similar there are some differences which this article will look at.
It is probably easiest to approach this from the point of view of features and identify which model(s) are at the head of the pack. Please note that in all cases it will be the 3 wheel models that are being compared as these are almost always lighter and more agile than the 4 wheel versions.
Lightweight
The Pride Go Go Ultra X mobility scooter is the lightest of the four models weighing only 92lbs including the batteries. This model easily disassembles into five lightweight pieces with the heaviest being 28lbs. The Go Go Elite Traveller mobility scooter is close behind at only 96lbs.
Agile
Probably the best measure of agility is the turning radius. The Go Go Ultra X and Go Go Elite Traveller have an identical 32.5″ turning radius. This makes them both ideal candidates for people who require a medical mobility scooter to get around inside their home where the presence of doorways, hallways and of course furniture can be obstacles.
Transportable
When it comes to being able to easily disassemble your scooter and storing it in a car or van again there is little difference between the Go Go Ultra X and the Go Go Traveller scooters. As mentioned above they weigh vitually the same and they both quickly disassemble into five lightweight pieces.
Other Factors
By now you may be asking what about the other two Pride Go Go Scooters? Well to answer this we need to look at two additional features.
First there is ground clearance. The Go Go Ultra X only has a clearance of 1.375″ which means it is not a great choice if you plan on using your scooter outside where you can encounter uneven terrain. This is where the Go Go Elite Traveller series comes in. The base model Traveller which has already been mentioned above has a clearance of 2.5″ – significantly better than the Untra X. The other two Traveller models; the Pride Go Go Elite Traveller Plus and PlusHD have an even greater clearance of 3″. In case you are wondering these two models weigh only about 20lbs more than the others and have a 2″ greater turning radius so they are both certainly still considered lightweight and agile.
