Pride Mini Crosser X1

The Pride Mini Crosser X1 has super-comfortable suspension and copes with a diversity of terrains. There are many features enabling the user to find the highest comfort level possible. An optimal driving position can be attained in multiple ways, including adjusting the seat height, backrest angle and seat width. The swivel seat feature enables easy access and the height of the steering column can be adjusted too, as can the headrest, armrests and handlebars. You can also choose to upgrade from a standard set to an ERGO2 HD seat. The standard weight capacity of 175kg is increased with the Heavy Duty version of the X1 to 250kg.

The motor brake adjusts the vehicle speed when going downhill and the anti-tip wheels at the rear provide an added safety feature.

The tyres are pneumatic, producing a smoother ride and there is a puncture-proof option. The X1 has a 165cm turning circle, which is pretty tight for such a large vehicle, enabling easy navigation in all types of spaces. The LED headlight, rear light and blinkers will be particularly useful in varying climates and scenarios.

The standard 56 Ah batteries will take you up to 21.7 miles which can be upgraded to 85 Ah batteries increasing the range to 37 miles but be aware this can vary depending upon user weight, type and incline of terrain, weather, battery charge and condition, operating speed and general driving situation. Nevertheless, it’s an extremely powerful and reliable scooter.

If you need to transport or store the scooter you can fold down the seat and handlebars, reducing the height to 69cm but the total weight of 124kg will still take some lifting so you might consider using a car hoist.

The front basket will carry up to 8kg and there are a range of accessories including an optional rear basket which carries up to 15kg.

Our Verdict

If you are looking for a comfortable high-performance mobility scooter you have to look at the Mini Crosser X1. The build quality is second to none and its features compete with the very best out there. The TGA Breeze S4 could also be worth a look. Whilst it’s significantly more expensive than other 8 mph road scooters, its popularity with our customers proves the price is justified.
