What is a balanced car? What is the difference between a balance car and an electric scooter?

2022-11-18

With the development of the times, people's pace of life is getting faster and faster, and urban traffic congestion is getting more and more serious. It is very important to choose an appropriate way of travel. A simple and portable means of transportation is the best choice. However, riding a bicycle is too tiring. Electric scooters and balance bikes are popular products of transportation, which are popular among young men and women. Today, let's compare the balance car and electric scooter. Which car is more suitable for transportation?

1、 Bearing capacity
The difference between the bearing capacity of the self balancing car and the electric scooter is not big, but because the pedal of the electric scooter is wider and can carry two people when needed, the electric scooter has advantages in bearing capacity.
2、 Endurance
The balance car has only one driving wheel. In addition to the difference between the maximum speed per hour and the driving mode, it is usually better than the electric scooter with the same battery capacity in terms of endurance. The longer the endurance, the heavier the electric scooter or balance car will be. In terms of endurance, the two are relatively consistent.

3、 Driving difficulty

The driving mode of the electric scooter is similar to that of the electric bicycle, and it is also better than the electric bicycle in terms of stability, so it is easy to get started. The balance car itself has no control device, and only relies on the self balancing function of the computer and the car's perception of the driver's driving intention to brake. Although the driving style of self balancing vehicles is relatively new and easy to learn, it still takes a period of practice to achieve very precise control. By comparison, electric scooters are easier to drive.

4、 Security comparison
Both the balance car and the electric scooter are new vehicles. In terms of the control of the car, the balance car needs to be controlled by the center of gravity, and the balance car needs to lean forward and backward to accelerate and decelerate and stop riding. The users who just started to use still need a period of time to adapt, but in some places with potholes on the road, it is still a little difficult to control. The brake of the electric scooter is manually operated, and there is a relative brake control, Relatively speaking, the electric scooter has a slight advantage in this link.

5、 Carrying degree

The overall volume of the balance car is relatively small compared with that of the electric scooter. If the car has no electricity, it can be carried. Because it is not big, if you carry a backpack of moderate size, it can be put into the bag and carried on your back to free your hands. Although the electric scooter is designed to fold, the folded volume still occupies a certain space. In addition, when there is no electricity, the electric scooter is relatively labor-saving, so the balance car is easier to carry.


Through various comparisons, in actual use, the gap between the two types of products in terms of endurance and load is not obvious, but the electric scooter still has a slight advantage in terms of safety and ease of use. However, in terms of specific use, you should also decide according to your own use needs.
