Highway Scooters, Street Scooters

How can you determine if a given scooter is street or highway legal? Investigating the requirements for street or highway scooters is a good idea as you narrow your options and pick what will work. Moving beyond the realm of kids scooters, these issues and others should be considered:

• A street legal scooter needs to be EPA-approved. The Environmental Protection Agency has air quality control standards that must be met.
• Every state has its own Department of Transportation compliance requirements; check with your state for details.
• The NHTSA defines a vehicle that produces not more than 5-brake horsepower, has motive power, a seat or a saddle, and a design for traveling with not more than three wheels contacting the ground, as a "motor driven cycle." Meeting these qualifications exempts such a vehicle from some laws that apply to motorcycles.

Power Scooters

Some X-Treme models built for the streets include the XM-3000 Electric Moped with a top speed of 43 mph and the XM-3500Li Electric Moped that goes up to 63 mph. Gas power scooters include the XM-50, XM-155, and the XM-150. All are EPA/DOT/VIN certified and ready to go.
