The Razor e325 Electric Scooter


Looking for a new electric scooter? 'My son has been begging me for over a month to get me an electric scooter and it's not even a bad idea of him ;) I've been doing my research on these scooters and found out that the Razor E325 provides the best specifications for now and for in the future. So, I've bought him this scooter and see here my quick review of it.

In my research I've found that Currie eZip and Razor E325 have electric scooters for kids and they have easily dominated the electric kids scooter market by keeping their products well priced and well built. I've decided to get the Razor E325 and so far it's turned out to be a great gift for my son! 

The Razor e325 Electric Scooter is no exception to the Razor reputation. This scooter is Razor's top of the line electric scooter. It has a long battery life which everyone loves, it is well built, reaches top speeds of about 15 miles per hour and overall is a quality built electric scooter. This electric scooter is great for teens and adults.

The maximum weight load is 220 lbs. It will go about 15 mph on flat ground for about 40 minutes. It is a great economical way to get around. The price hovers around $300 but it is well worth the cost. This by far is one of the best electric scooters on the market.

Here's What You Get for $300
  • Easy Hand-operated Front Brake System
  • Ten inch pneumatic tires that are extra wide.
  • Handle bars that fold for easier storage
  • 24V (two 12V) sealed lead acid battery system
  • A Kickstand that retracts
  • 250 W Powerful Motor

Consumer Reviews

Out of 15 consumers that left reviews for the Razor e325 Electric Scooter there was not one complaint about performance. Everyone offered up 5 stars under a 1-5 star review system. One consumer wished that the battery was larger to increase the range but that was the only thing that was reported about this electric scooter that was not completely positive. I've bought a second set of batteries when I bought the scooter and therefore there is always one set fully charged. When my son is using the scooter, the second battery pack is on the charger and can be swapped out by himself when needed.

Some Cautionary Notes

15 MPH may not sound like you are going fast but it is pretty fast for an electric scooter. This is a great model but it is made for smooth surfaces like driveways and sidewalks. It like most electric scooters does not handle well on other types of terrain.

Wearing a helmet while you are utilizing this scooter is pretty much mandatory, it does not take much to be knocked off an electric scooter so head protection is very important. Wearing knee pads and elbow pads is also a very good idea.

It takes about 12 hours of being plugged in to fully charge the Razor e325 Electric Scooter so be sure that you have an area to charge your scooter if you are going to use it to get back and forth to work. This is not a kids toy this is meant for teenagers and adults. It is a powerful scooter that is adult size so if you are looking for an electric scooter for your kid this is not it!

Electric scooters are a great way to get around especially for city living. They are economical and earth friendly modes of transport and since the Razor e325 Electric Scooter (wiki) easily folds up it is easy to take on public transport if you have to! It is a great fun ride for both teenagers and adults. The cost is a little high but it is worth the expense when I see my kids riding with his friends in the neighbourhood. 

And that my son is having fun, see him enjoying it and be a great kid, is the best!
