Storm+ Class 3 Road-Legal Mobility Scooter with Hard Canopy

The Storm+ class 3 mobility scooter represents premium all-weather mobility with its integrated hard canopy design. This road-legal scooter operates at 8mph on roads and 4mph on pavements, built with heavy-duty components to support users up to 30 stone while delivering exceptional comfort and weather protection.

Road-Legal Heavy-Duty Mobility Scooter with All-Weather Canopy

The Storm+ is the premium version of Monarch’s heavy-duty Storm scooter, featuring an integrated hard canopy for year-round weather protection. Built on the same proven platform as the standard Storm, the Plus model adds overhead shelter from rain, wind, and sun, along with a deluxe seat, lockable rear storage, and enhanced features. For users who travel regularly regardless of weather conditions, the Storm+ provides genuine all-season capability.

Integrated Hard Canopy

The hard canopy provides overhead protection from the elements, allowing travel in conditions that would otherwise require staying indoors. Rain, wind, and direct sun are deflected, keeping the user comfortable and dry. The canopy is permanently fitted and adds 37cm to the overall height (170cm total vs 133cm for the standard Storm). This design maintains visibility while providing substantial coverage of the seating area. A rain cover is also included for additional protection in severe weather.

Class 3 Road-Legal Performance

As a Class 3 scooter, the Storm+ is legal for use on roads with a maximum speed of 8 mph. A switchable speed setting allows 4 mph operation on pavements, complying with UK regulations for pavement use. The scooter includes all required road-legal equipment: LED headlight, rear lights, indicators, horn, mirrors, and a hazard warning system. Registration with the DVLA is required for road use but is free of charge.

Heavy-Duty Capacity and Comfort

The Storm+ supports users up to 30 stone (190.5kg), making it suitable for bariatric users or those who find smaller scooters inadequate. The deluxe 53cm x 53cm captain’s seat provides generous width and depth with enhanced padding for comfort on longer journeys—an upgrade from the standard Storm’s seating. The delta-style tiller offers intuitive steering control and can be adjusted for height and angle to accommodate different user preferences.

Powerful Motor and Extended Range

The 1,650W motor provides substantial power for climbing inclines up to 12 degrees and maintaining speed under load. Twin 75Ah batteries deliver a range of up to 24 miles on a single charge, sufficient for extended daily use without range concerns. The 14-inch wheels and 20cm ground clearance allow confident navigation over kerbs, rough ground, and uneven surfaces.

Full Suspension System

Front and rear suspension absorbs impacts and surface imperfections, providing a smooth ride across varied terrain. The suspension system minimises vibration and jolting for a more comfortable journey. The suspension system, combined with pneumatic tyres (or optional solid tyres for maintenance-free operation), ensures comfortable travel on both smooth pavements and rougher outdoor surfaces.

Practical Features

The lockable rear storage box provides secure space for shopping, personal items, or equipment—included as standard on the Storm+ rather than as an optional accessory. The USB charging point allows devices to be powered while travelling. The LCD dashboard displays speed, battery level, and distance information. LED lighting ensures visibility in low-light conditions. The scooter is available in Champagne or Red finishes. The Storm+ is Motability approved, providing an accessible route to ownership through the scheme.

Storm vs Storm+: Which Should You Choose?

The standard Storm (£3,695) and Storm+ (£4,195) share identical core performance: 8 mph speed, 24-mile range, 30-stone capacity, full suspension, and 1,650W motor. The £500 price difference buys three specific upgrades on the Plus model: the integrated hard canopy for weather protection, the lockable rear storage box (fitted as standard rather than optional), and the deluxe seat with enhanced padding. Choose the standard Storm if you primarily travel in dry conditions and prefer to add storage separately. Choose the Storm+ if you travel year-round in all weather conditions and want the complete package with all accessories included.
