E-bikes could get faster, more powerful and not require pedaling, in a move announced today by UKGOV. Cycling organizations are opposed to the plans.

E scooters are completely different:
they have significantly less range for the same battery size.
can’t make it up some hills depending on the torque of the motor on the scooter
less comfortable to ride a long distance
easier to store and transport, especially in a small car or on the bus or train (depending on the size of the scooter)
more difficult to park/lock up outside in public spaces, but can sometimes be taken with you when a bicycle would have to be locked up outside
The OP is talking about electric mopeds, not electric “kick” scooters. The fact that scooter means at least 5 different things is very confusing but there you go.
The people that upvoted you clearly did not click either of those links. I also thought the commenter sounded like an old fart who was amazed at electric “kick” scooters. But then I clicked the link before writing a whole comment about it.
I didn’t click the link either, but yeah I’ve never heard of mopeds referred to as “e-scooters” before, but I guess that could be a regional thing…
You’ve never heard a Moped be called a Scooter before? Dude put “scooters” in quotes. He was trying to convey it in a brief comment. You wrote out a huge, condescending reply instead of clicking the links. I think that’s on you mate.
