A light, quick-folding scooter that makes holidays and days out simple again

If the thought of loading a heavy scooter into the car stops you planning trips, a really light folding scooter changes things. The Monarch Genie is Monarch's best-selling scooter for good reason: the main frame weighs 16.85 kg without its battery and folds in about five seconds, with no tools and nothing to take apart.

It's a pavement scooter that's at home in shops, garden centres and on holiday. The lithium battery is approved for air, coach and cruise travel, and rear suspension with a padded seat keeps the ride comfortable on everyday paths.

✅ Key Features & Benefits

• Folds in around five seconds
  One quick fold and it's ready for the boot, a train or the hotel room. No tools, no separate pieces to keep track of.

• Just 16.85 kg without the battery
  One of the lightest scooters we sell, so lifting it into a car is far easier on your back, shoulders and wrists.

• Approved for air, coach and cruise travel
  The lithium battery meets travel rules, so the Genie can come with you to visit family abroad or on a cruise.

• Adjustable tiller (70–96 cm handlebar height)
  Set the handlebars where your arms rest comfortably, which helps if you have stiff shoulders or are taller or shorter than average.

• Rear suspension
  Cushions bumps from uneven paving, so the ride is gentler on your lower back.

• Padded seat with adjustable armrests
  Comfortable for a morning round the shops, with armrests to steady yourself as you sit down and stand up.

• Tight 1.4 m turning circle and 43 cm width
  Turns neatly in shop aisles and narrow doorways, so you can go inside rather than waiting at the door.

• Battery charges on or off the scooter
  Take just the battery indoors to charge and leave the scooter in the car.

Colours available

Red or Blue.

Who it suits best

• You want a scooter that's easy to lift into a car boot
• You travel by plane, coach or cruise ship
• Short to medium trips on pavements and indoors
• Riders up to 19 stone (125 kg)

Worth knowing before you buy

The Genie folds by hand, so you'll need to bend and use both hands for a moment — if that's difficult, a remote-control folding scooter may suit you better. Its small solid wheels and up to 9-mile range make it best for smooth pavements and shorter outings, not grass, gravel or long country lanes. For those, a larger pavement scooter with bigger wheels will be more comfortable.

Questions customers ask us

Will it fit in my car?
Very likely. Folded it measures about 38 × 43 × 88 cm, so it fits in most car boots.

How far will it go?
Up to 9 miles on a charge, depending on your weight and the ground you're on.

Can I try folding it myself?
Yes, please do. Ring us first so we can check it's in stock; if not, we can usually arrange a demo model. A free home assessment is also available, and we'll show you how it works.
