Another thing to consider when buying a scooter or motorized toy in general is the cost. Because motorized toys cost a lot, they can cost a lot of electricity if your child likes them. It is important to study the advantages and disadvantages of Razor’s electric scooters in terms of electricity and how they changed the electricity bills of the parents who already owned them and the children who used them regularly.
The Razor E200 electric scooter is ideal for children over 13 years, but as with most Razor toys the age is very random. Many parents buy this scooter for children from 9 years of age, because they have older children who can already reach the steering wheel without any problems. Even if you’re not sure if you should buy this scooter for your young children, even if it’s too big, you can wait until they grow up! Fortunately, Razor also gives its customers a detailed description of the size of its products, so that you can easily measure your child and, if necessary, assess the differences. Alternatively, try the Razor Ripstik baby clasp.
Weight
Depending on the weight of the rider, the Razor E200 electric scooter can go much faster than the 12 km/h described. If your child is light, the scooter can reach 20 miles per hour with an average of 15 hours. It is also important to decide whether your child is balanced and mature enough to start scooting, because it requires a lot of control, especially in the learning phase.
User manual and training curve
The weight limit for these E200 shaving rollers is 165 pounds, which means that even parents can try to drive. This is especially useful if you want to show your child how to use a Razor E200 electric scooter before he or she is touched. With a demonstration, you can show them the E200’s features and how to ensure safety. We therefore advise you to read the instructions with your child before using the Razor E200 electric scooter.
For example, if you want to slow down, you have to let go of the accelerator. If you press the accelerator pedal and the rear brake at the same time, the scooter will not stop. This information can prevent many injuries on the road, so we recommend that you read the manual before using your scooter.
Assembly
A Razor scooter requires some assembly, but this is relatively small and should be a fun exercise for children.
Most parents say that it doesn’t take more than 30 minutes to assemble the scooter and that this should give the children a good boost when they see their new favorite toys slowly put together by their efforts.
Functionality
The E200 Razor scooter does not need to be started like its predecessors (Razor E100 and E150 electric scooters). It has an automatic start, which means that your child can just jump on it and start working without having to kick! This model Razor scooter also weighs less than its sisters (only 35-45 pounds). The light weight is ideal if you are looking for a portable scooter that you can take to the park, for hiking or on holiday close to home.
Superstructure
The Razor E200 series also works well on grass and gravel roads, making it ideal for children who live near country roads, farms and fields and don’t have a lot of gravel roads to travel. In general, the E200 is a very versatile scooter that your child can ride almost anywhere. The Razor E200 electric scooter will certainly slow you down on grass, but on asphalt it can easily reach more than 19 km/h with a light driver.
Safety
In the same way, as mentioned earlier, the E200 is a very powerful scooter, and it is important that your child can learn to stay in balance before going on deck.
The bridge itself is relatively wide, which should make balancing easier.
The size of the Razor E200 electric scooter is 37.7 x 16.8 x 40.9 inches, making it a wide and perfectly sized scooter with an easily accessible steering wheel.
The E200 is also available in three versions: a kit with a scooter, a kit with a scooter and helmet and a kit with a scooter, helmet and pillow. For parents looking for 4×4 excursions, you will find Buggy Razor Dune here. Or for older children, check out the quadruple Razor Dirt for hours of fun!
These additional accessories only slightly increase the price and save you searching for cushions and helmets, which are certainly more expensive when purchased from individual customers.

Who is it for?
The E200 scooter is ideal for children from 13 years of age due to its powerful chain motor and high speed. However, if your child is particularly tall and/or mature for his or her age and seems to get along well with the balance and direction of the scooter, it shouldn’t be a problem for him or her to have fun! It may be useful to try the scooter first at the mall or near a friend to make sure your child likes the product and that the dimensions are suitable.
Why we love
The Razor E200 has a wide, comfortable, standardised deck and a frame that helps children feel safe when sailing at high speeds. One of the things we like about the E200 is its top speed, which can go up to 20 miles per hour on a paved road. We also love the safety accessories that come with the E200 kits, such as the helmet, knee and elbow pads, etc., so that children are safe in case of tripping or falling.
Replacement product – electric scooter Razor E300
There are many electric scooters available at Razor, and if you don’t like the features of the E200, or if it doesn’t meet the needs of you or your child, the Razor E300 electric scooter can just be a good alternative.
With the purchase you will receive a scooter, helmet and knee and elbow pads, all included in the original price. The E300 electric scooter has a wide deck and a full-size frame, can reach a speed of more than 15 km/h and has a very quiet chain motor, which will not disturb the fickle neighbours!
