The self balancing "scooter" is in the background, the Segway, however hardly fits the description of a scooter.

One that can be bought now, also self balancing, and even comes with a seat, is the Scrooser. €2,605 before shipping, and whatever import tax would be applied... https://www.scrooser.com/en/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In Thai speak, I think of a scooter as having 2 wheels. (Waiting for Colin to weigh in on this topic.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Many places here sell them now, in Banphai there are 2 places selling them. If memory serves me right there is a company called Lion atvs who have mobility scooters like the one Khwaiba showed.
