Pride Colt Deluxe 2.0

The Deluxe 2.0 is the most compact “road” scooter available, which has made the Deluxe range amongst our best sellers. This makes it ideal for people in London and the surrounding area who might have limited storage space, or who would benefit from the extra manoeuvrability the unique drive system offers.

Featuring rugged suspension at both the front and rear of the scooter, the Deluxe 2.0 provides a smooth ride, capable of handling rougher ground than more basic 4 mph scooters that are generally limited to paved surfaces. The amply padded high back seat can be rotated to make getting on and off the scooter as easy as possible, and the combination of the high back and headrest offers more support than that found in smaller scooters.

The Deluxe 2.0 comes as standard with solid tyres in grey, but most people choose to upgrade to pneumatic tyres for a small additional charge. These increase comfort, and also allow you to get the scooter in a wider choice of colours – red, blue or grey. We would normally recommend the pneumatics for the better ride experience.

The new style front tiller has a modern sophisticated design, as well as practical advantages. These include a large storage area – ideal for personal belongings such as a phone or wallet that you don’t want to put in the front basket. A USB charging point lets you power your smartphone when out and about, and the cup holder is a convenient addition.

The frosted LED headlight, plus rear LED light and indicators, make navigating easier as well as ensuring your visibility. The handy front storage basket offers a convenient way of securely transporting shopping.

The Colt Deluxe 2.0 has a hefty weight capacity of 28.5 stone, allowing it to accommodate a wide range of users, while the tiller can be adjusted according to the height of the user and the seat is similarly adjustable. An impressive range of up to 21 miles (39 km) means that the Deluxe 2.0 can handle everyday use, and allows the person using it to regain their independence by getting around outdoors.

Our Verdict

The original Deluxe was one of our favourite scooters, and a workhorse of our hire fleet, and the new Deluxe 2.0 improves on this – with updated styling and some nifty upgrades. It offers a great balance of a compact size, good speed and excellent reliability, and the pneumatic tyre version gives the Deluxe 2.0 a whole new level of comfort.
