Research report into e-scooter construction standards. The report includes sections on:

  • a review of literature and international regulations and standards
  • analysis of technical requirements for e-scooters
  • integration with vehicles for disabled people and the effect of e-scooters on their mobility choices
  • sustainability, environmental impact and lifecycle

The Department for Transport commissioned the report to provide evidence on technical requirements to consider in future regulations if e-scooter are legalised.
