Portable Dismantling Mobility Scooter for Easy Transport
The Mini 4 is a Class 2 pavement mobility scooter designed for users who need to transport their scooter in a car boot. Rather than folding in one piece, the Mini 4 dismantles into separate components—tiller, seat, and batteries can be removed individually, with the heaviest single part weighing 30kg. This makes it practical for loading into vehicles while providing a more substantial scooter than ultra-lightweight folding models.
Quick Disassembly for Transport
The Mini 4 features a straightforward dismantling mechanism that allows rapid breakdown for storage or transportation. The tiller section detaches, the seat lifts off, and the batteries can be removed separately. Reassembly is equally quick, requiring no tools. The heaviest component (the main chassis without batteries) weighs 30kg, while the complete scooter with batteries weighs 43kg. When assembled, the scooter measures 108cm long, 56cm wide, and 94cm high.
Full Suspension for Comfort
Unlike many portable scooters that sacrifice ride quality for weight savings, the Mini 4 includes full front and rear suspension. This absorbs impacts from kerbs, bumps, and uneven pavements, providing a noticeably smoother ride. Combined with pneumatic tyres on 8-inch front and 9-inch rear wheels, the suspension system handles varied surfaces comfortably.
Practical Capacity and Range
The Mini 4 supports users up to 21 stone (134kg) and travels up to 12 miles on a single charge—sufficient for a full day of local errands. The 410W motor provides reliable performance with a maximum climbing angle of 10 degrees, handling moderate inclines encountered on pavements and access ramps. Maximum speed is 4 mph, the legal limit for pavement use.
Storage and Convenience
A front basket provides immediate access storage for shopping bags, while an under-seat storage compartment offers additional secure space for personal items. The flip-up, adjustable armrests make getting on and off the scooter straightforward, and the delta-style tiller provides intuitive steering control that can be adjusted for comfortable reach.
Compact Width
At just 56cm wide, the Mini 4 navigates narrow shop aisles, doorways, and compact spaces more easily than larger pavement scooters. The 9cm ground clearance is adequate for typical pavement use, though lower than off-road or heavy-duty scooters.
Important Notes
The Mini 4 is classified as a Class 2 pavement scooter and is not road-legal. It is not approved for airline, coach, or cruise travel. While described as “foldable,” it is more accurately a dismantling scooter—it breaks into parts rather than folding in one action like auto-folding models.

Mini 4 vs Auto-Folding Scooters
The Mini 4 dismantles into separate parts rather than folding in one action. This means slightly more assembly time compared to auto-folding scooters like the Genie or Smarti, but provides benefits including full suspension, larger wheels, greater range (12 miles vs 9 miles typical), higher weight capacity (21 stone vs 18-19 stone typical), and substantially lower cost. Choose the Mini 4 if you prioritise range, capacity, and ride comfort over ultra-fast folding. Choose an auto-folding scooter if speed of assembly is the primary concern.
Ideal For
- Users who transport their scooter by car regularly
- Shopping trips and local errands
- Those who can lift 30kg or have assistance
- Users needing higher weight capacity than ultra-light scooters
- Those prioritising ride comfort with full suspension
- Pavement use only (not road-legal)
Not Suitable For
- Air travel (not airline approved)
- Coach or cruise travel
- Road use (Class 2 pavement only)
- Those who require assistance to lift 30kg
- Those requiring one-action folding
