What the iScooter L8 is built for

The iScooter L8 is an electric kick scooter for short trips and the last mile of a commute.

It has a 500 W motor and a top speed of 21 mph (34 km/h).

It carries a 281 Wh battery and a stated range of up to 21 miles (34 km) on a charge.

The iScooter L8 carries up to 265 lb (120 kg) including the rider.

In the United States the iScooter L8 sells for $300, below the median of $530 across 163 electric scooters with a US price, among the more affordable models. That is $1 per watt-hour of battery.

Where the iScooter L8 may be ridden

Most European countries cap electric scooters at 20 to 25 km/h on public roads; the iScooter L8's top speed of 21 mph (34 km/h) is above that, so it may be ridden at full speed only on private land there. In the United Kingdom privately owned e-scooters may not yet be ridden on public roads, and Germany requires a type-approved model with an insurance plate.

iScooter L8 safety certification

The brand's listing for the iScooter L8 does not state a UL 2272 or EN 17128 certification. New York City allows only e-scooters certified to UL 2272 to be sold or rented there; ask the seller for the certificate before buying.
