A two-wheeled, electrically powered personal transportation device equipped with a dedicated seating area behind the primary rider’s position, enabling the carriage of a passenger. This design contrasts with conventional single-rider electric scooters and offers increased versatility for short-distance travel. Examples include models marketed towards families or individuals needing to transport small items or another person.
The inclusion of a passenger seat enhances the utility of electric scooters, providing an alternative to cars or motorcycles for specific transportation needs. This design can reduce traffic congestion and carbon emissions in urban environments. Historically, the single-rider format dominated the electric scooter market, but the demand for carrying additional passengers or cargo has driven the development and adoption of models with seating accommodations.
