FAQ's
Here are 6 frequently asked questions (FAQs) for the Pride Apex Portable Mobility Scooter
1. How portable is the Apex scooter? Does it fit in a car boot?
Yes, the Apex is designed for portability. It features a “feather-touch” disassembly system that allows you to break the scooter down into five lightweight pieces in just a few moments, without the need for tools. The heaviest piece is designed to be manageable, making it much easier to lift into a car boot for transport or to store compactly indoors.
2. What is the maximum range and speed of the Apex scooter?
The Pride Apex is a Class 2 pavement scooter with a top speed of 4 mph (6.4 km/h). The maximum travel range depends on the model and battery size you choose.
- Apex Lite: Typically offers a range of up to 10-11 miles per charge.
- Apex Rapid: Often comes with a standard 12Ah battery for a range of around 10 miles, or an upgraded 18Ah battery option that can extend the range to approximately 13-16 miles.
(Please note: The range is always affected by user weight, terrain, and battery condition.)
3. What is the maximum user weight for the scooter?
The Pride Apex portable scooters (both the Lite and Rapid models) typically have a maximum user weight capacity of 21.6 stone (which is 136 kg). It’s important to adhere to this limit for optimal safety and performance.
4. Can I charge the battery away from the scooter?
Yes, you can. The Apex features a removable battery pack that supports both on-board and off-board charging. This means you can either plug the charger directly into the port on the scooter’s tiller or remove the battery pack and take it indoors to charge separately at your convenience.
5. Is the Pride Apex scooter suitable for taking on an aeroplane?
The Apex scooter is often airline-friendly, but this depends entirely on the battery type. The standard 12Ah or 18Ah sealed lead-acid (SLA) batteries are generally permitted, but you must contact your airline well in advance of your flight. They have specific procedures for carrying mobility devices and will need to approve the battery’s specification.
6. Does the Apex scooter have suspension?
This depends on the model:
The Pride Apex Rapid is known for its all-round suspension (called CTS – Comfort-Trac Suspension), which provides a much smoother and more comfortable ride over uneven pavements and bumpy ground.
- The Pride Apex Lite is a more lightweight, budget-friendly model and typically does not feature the full suspension system of the Rapid.
