Eco

A great budget-friendly model based on the successful design principles of the Luggie brand. 

Thanks to its lightweight alloy frame the Luggie Eco weighs in at only 23.5kg, by using traditional SLA batteries rather than Lithium batteries it is able to come in at a very affordable and comparable price.

What does this mean to you? It means that you can enjoy the innovative Luggie design at a lower price, but a heavier battery. While in recent years Lithium Batteries or Li-Ion Batteries have become more and more popular, regular SLA Batteries have been powering mobility scooters and other electric vehicles for over 25 years.

The batteries in the Luggie Eco have been tested and deemed compliant with airline requirements, which means that you can take your Luggie Eco on the plane just like the Solax Travel Scooters or the Luggie's that come with Lithium batteries.

Like all Luggie brand scooters, the Luggie Eco allows you to benefit from the excellent maneuverability and turning circle in addition to the convenient easy folding mechanism.

This travel-scooter doesn't come with any armrests, but they can be added as an optional extra or you can have a look at the Luggie Elite, which comes with armrests included. For storage space, simply check out our Luggie Accessories such as the under-seat folding basket. 

The Luggie range of portable scooters, also offers an adjustable seat-height, making it a perfect choice for people of the smaller stature.

The Luggie Eco offers a great alternative to other travel-scooters, as it has been designed to assist in lifting the scooter into the boot of a car. A luggie can be folded in 3 different ways. While the folding process is slightly more complex than an automatic folding scooter such as the Solax Charge or Solax Transformer Soft-tail. The long-shape and design of the scooter allows for easier loading/unloading.

1. Lower the tiller using the two latches

2. Pull the side lever and fold the tiller down into the locking latch on the base

3. Lock it into place

4. Lower the seat, by squeezing the big red button under the seat with one hand and lowering the seat with the other

5. Fold-down the backrest 

6. You are now ready to load your Luggie Eco Scooter into your car

_{Please note the images on the right are featuring a Luggie Super, it is slightly larger, has a higher weight capacity than the Luggie Eco and comes with an under-seat bag, lithium batteries and armrests.}

1. Fold-down the seat by squeezing the red Lever under the seat and using your other hand to lower down the seat

2. Fold-down the backrest

3. Collapse the tiller down using the two tiller height adjustment latches

4. Lift the angle adjustment tiller and lower the tiller down until it hits the seat

5. You are now ready to load your Luggie Eco 

This fold is quicker than the original flat-fold method, however, because the step, which locks the tiller to the base is skipped, it means that the tiller remains loose, which needs to be taken into consideration when loading the scooter.

1. Collapse down the tiller, using the 2 latches

2. Open the latch on the base

3. Fold-down the tiller using the lever and place it into the open latch

4. Lock the tiller in place by closing the latch and securing it

5. Open the black locked latches located on the base next to the locked-in handlebars

6. Fold-down the backrest

7. Squeeze the red lever under the seat with one hand while using your other hand to lower down the seat

8. Once the seat is all the way lowered and locked in place hold the scooter under the seat and lift. This will lift up the scooter allowing it to collapse in the centre

9. Give it a slight lean to the back and the weight of the scooter will lock it into place

10. Lift up the tiller and lock it into place

11. You can now easily wheel your scooter like a suitcase 

This fold is great for travel, as it takes up less room in the boot, If you are travelling by air, remember to remove the battery before you fold your scooter. The box fold is also a great option if you are using a hoist such as the LM or LC Hoist to lift the Luggie in and out of your car.

Lift the front end of your luggie into the boot of your car and allow the back end to rest on the ground. Once the front end is in your car, bend down and pick up the back end and slide or swing this in as well. The Luggies allow for this unique lifting style thanks to their longer shape when folded and strategically placed soft castors.

This means you only lift half the weight of the scooter at a time!
