Folds itself at the press of a button — and rides more smoothly than most

Auto-folding scooters take the hard work out of the car boot, but many of them feel every crack in the pavement. The Drive DeVilbiss AutoFold Elite was one of the first in its class with suspension at both the front and the back, so you get the convenience of a scooter that folds itself and a noticeably gentler ride.

Press the remote fob or the button on the dashboard and it folds or opens in about 15 seconds. It's made for people who like to keep busy — shopping trips, family visits, holidays — without the worry of wrestling a frame into the car.

✅ Key Features & Benefits

• Automatic fold in about 15 seconds
  No levers or catches. Fold it from the remote fob while you stand back — ideal if bending or gripping is hard because of a sore back or arthritic hands.

• Suspension front and rear
  Takes the sting out of uneven slabs and dropped kerbs, so fewer jolts reach your spine, hips and neck.

• Digital LCD dashboard
  Shows speed, battery, time and distance clearly, so you always know how far you can go.

• Airline-friendly lithium battery
  The removable 252Wh lithium battery suits air travel. Check with your airline before you fly.

• USB charging port
  Keep your phone topped up when you're out and about.

• Anti-rollback and automatic brakes
  Let go and it stops; pause on a slope and it holds still, which gives real confidence on ramps.

• Carry handle and removable armrests
  The handle gives you a good grip when lifting it into the boot, and the armrests come off to make getting on and off easier.

• Solid puncture-proof tyres
  No flat tyres, ever.

Colours available

Blue or Red, with a metallic silver finish and silver wheel hubs.

Who it suits best

• Car owners who find manual folding scooters too fiddly
• Anyone who wants a comfier ride than a basic folding scooter
• Holidays and days out, including air travel
• Riders up to 19.7 stone (125 kg)

Worth knowing before you buy

It folds itself, but the folded scooter still weighs 25 kg once the battery is out, so you'll need to lift it into the boot or use a boot hoist. Range is around 9 miles and top speed is 4 mph, so it's for shorter trips on pavements rather than long rides. If you'd like more range and a larger seat for everyday local trips, a full-size pavement scooter is a better choice.

Questions customers ask us

How small is it when folded?
About 45 × 57 × 64 cm. Bring your boot measurements and we'll check it fits with you.

Can it be charged while on the scooter?
Yes, it charges on board, and the battery can also be removed.

Could I watch it fold before buying?
Yes. We don't keep every model in the showroom, so give us a ring first and we'll check — if it isn't in, we can usually arrange a demo model. A free home assessment is also available.
