Hi everyone, we realised we forgot two fundamental things, how to fold it, and how to lock it!!!! There will be more videos coming soon, Camilla has her CBT test booked for tuesday, and FINALLY we can ride further than the car park :) Subscribe to stay tuned, and click the bell to receive email notifications of new videos. THANKS!

This is fantastic 🎉😊 this is now what all UK e-scooters need to be doing (Pure Electric). With the Moped classification we also get the benefit of going above the 15.5 mph speed (right up to 28 mph). The use of Licence plates on e-scooters would also be a deterrent to the yobs who are currently giving Micromobility a bad name. Well done Swifty!

Yes, we've gone to great lengths to achieve this. And the irony being, we have a much faster scooter on the road! I mean 24mph is great fun for us, but surely the penny is going to drop soon, and they'll permit the regular 15.5mph ones.

@@SwiftyScootersTVI too gave up hope of the 2022 Transport Bill and then the Queen died along with a change of Prime ministers (Liz to Rishi). I was really hoping that 2022 would be the year that e-scooters would be debated in parliament and then legalised with pragmatic regulation.

Ah, I'm sorry there are not more options for you. We were involved in a recent e-scooter study commissioned by the DfT and we gave evidence of the need to reform rules for people with disabilities. Their response was, this is not in the scope of the study!!! Perhaps they will release more money to conduct a further study..... but nothing will actually happen without the political will.

The who idea to ride a scooter is because it's a cheap form of transport, but this isn't, if we need a bike licence, cbt has to be retaken every 2 years, plus you can buy a 125cc do 70mph and have as much range as you like, i think you have missed the point with this, and thats why our goverment have approved it. A ebike is still the best option, even a folding ebike.

Well done Swifty. Love the finished product. I've had a full m/c license since 1985 and I'm very tempted but out of my price bracket for now. Any chance that the SwiftyAir-e will become road legal in the future?

Well done! Big scooters should have quickly removable batteries to make them easier to carry up a flight of stairs. P.S. It would be nice to see a _cheaper_ 14-inch wheel version of this.

I’d not heard of CBT. I’m almost 75 and ride bicycles. Reading about CBT, the regs say you need to use L plates until you have a full m/cycle license. Does that apply to the GT500? I like the concept but at £3,500 with an electric Brompton at £2,900 for which there are no other requirements, I can’t see Mr Butlers-Adams losing too much sleep. Personally, I think the government should pay people to ride either.

Can we see how it folds up? It looks like an amazing bit of kit, but I'd want to see how easy it is to fold and the folded foot print. Plus can it be charged while folded?

You are funny 😂, it doesn't fold. Only the stem with the handlebars can be collapsed that's it. And yes you can charge it while " folded" .

Looks nice but don’t see the point. You need insurance, tax is free and can only ride on roads. Won’t be able to go into town centres, cycle paths and the price is way too high. With an e bike at least you can go into towns and use it on cycle paths with the benefit of some exercise. Compared to a e moped scooter like a lexmoto for the same price or much less makes little sense for me. However if it’s your cuppa it looks nice and niche and handy for zipping around the city.

What did they do to make it a "legal" electric scooter? Some "illegal" e-scooter have the same options than the gt 500 🤔

They applied to the DVSA. Others won't have gone through the DVSA approval process, in theory this is something anyone could do, however it could fail if any area of the scooter fails to meet the DVSA requirements.
