More Question?

Here's a little more to know to ride, store and love your Lightfoot. Puh-lease call with us for any information. And remember: the journey is half the fun! 

How far can it go between charges

37 miles per charge, plus up to 18 miles/day of extended range with solar charging.

And advanced regen means downhill coasts and gentle stops turn into a little extra range.

How fast does it go?

Lightfoot zips up to 19.9 MPH with dual 750W motors.

Lightfoot's dual motor power maximizes low-end torque for the stuff that really matters when on the road: rapid acceleration, for example, from oncoming traffic, to speed up hills or carry a second rider.

Do I need a license or registration?

No! Lightfoot is classified as an e-scooter - like a Lime - in the U.S. - and compliant with federal standards for micromobility vehicles.

Is Lightfoot safe for bike lanes?

Yes, it’s designed for bike lanes and city streets (but not highways).

What’s the age requirement?

Riders must be 16 or older.

Is it hard to ride? I haven't ridden a two-wheeler in a while

Lightfoot is easy to ride. You just twist & go for starting, stopping and weaving.

The vehicle's low center of gravity, energy absorbing functionality and cushy suspension give riders a new level of stability and maneuverability, comfort and control at low speeds.

What if it breaks?

Lightfoot is designed for EZ maintenance and quick repair with common parts and tools.

Plus its designed for longevity. We've replaced drive trains with dual high efficiency motors, used robust aerospace grade connectors and a ruggedized chassis and dual suspension to enable everyday use and logevity.

Is it waterproof?

While no EV is 100% waterproof, Lightfoot’s design keeps water out and your stored belongings dry.

How much can it carry?

Lightfoot can hold up to 33 lbs in storage, and a total weight capacity of 419 lbs.

What's to stop someone from stealing a Lightfoot?

Thieves think twice about stealing a Lightfoot given its relatively heavy weight and wheels that are electronically locked and won't move without a key. A simple lock through either wheel makes the micromobility vehicle virtually unmoveable. Our team can offer additional recommendations for those seeking more assurance.

Why go Lightfoot if I already own a car?

Everything about Lightfoot is so you can get more done every day, more of your day done without your car and make more of your time.

Arrive sooner with more in tow – including a passenger - and spend less time battling traffic, hunting for parking, struggling to keep balance at low speeds and recharging.

Save more money for nights out, rent, a rainy day or day in the park and spend less on gas, costly repairs and insurance. ​

What is the Lightfoot buyback guarantee?

We guarantee everything we make because we know that prioritizing durability - and ultra low-cost of ownership - result in consuming less energy, wasting less water, creating less trash and providing more value.

That's why Lightfoot will buy back your vehicle when you're ready to trade it in. We'll make a fair offer for your model based on the scooter's mileage, market factors like demand and seasonality and our own reconditioning costs so a future can enjoy the ligthfoot in perfect condition.

Riding with Confidence

Each Lightfoot is covered by a 1-year warranty, with critical components protected for 2 years. Need help? Contact us:

Whether you’re running errands, exploring your city, or just cruising for fun, Lightfoot is here to make life better. So, twist the throttle, soak up the sun, and let the good times roll.
