Black Friday electric scooter deals 2023: what we expect this year
Electric scooter Black Friday deals offer massive savings during the biggest sale event. And using our expertise and insider knowledge, we can help you score one.
Electric scooter Black Friday deals abound during the biggest sale event of the year. So it’s the best time to grab one, whether you’re looking for the best budget electric scooter or you want a premium model with a long range, a powerful motor, and the best performance.
Last year’s Black Friday deals on e-scooters included deep discounts on some models from our best electric scooter and best e-scooter for students lists, with brands like Niu, TurboAnt, Segway, Pure Electric, Gotrax, and Fluid offering many money-saving deals and coupons. Some models even dropped to their record-low prices, which meant irresistible bargains. And that’s not to mention all the lesser-known brands that roll out their own bargains.
If you missed out on last year’s Black Friday e-scooter deals, we expect online retailers to match those prices this year at the very least – especially since e-scooters are becoming a favorite mode of travel for many. And, you’ll have plenty of chances since Amazon’s 2nd Prime Day on October 10 and 11 will kick off Black Friday early, giving you almost two months to look for the best deal for you.
To help you find the best electric scooter Black Friday deal, we have shared everything you need to know about this year’s event below, such as the date, what bargains we can expect, and looking back at last year’s top sales.

What Black Friday electric scooter deals do we expect in 2023?
As we mentioned in the beginning, many of the top electric scooter brands dropped massive money-saving deals on their popular models, from the budget offerings to the premium ones. We saw our favorites like the NIU KQi3 Pro and the TurboAnt V8 Dual-Battery receive deep discounts, making them more accessible to budget-minded riders. We also saw many budget scooters from Razor and GoTrax get even cheaper.
With electric scooters getting more and more popular, we expect online retailers and brands to match last year’s electric scooter Black Friday deals during this year’s sale event, at the very least. And, if you look at Amazon’s current deals now, you’ll already find up to $300 off on some models, which is a good indication of what’s to come.
Whether you’re looking for a cheap e-scooter or a high-performance one, however, rest assured you’ll be able to find a terrific bargain at this year’s Black Friday event.
Last year’s best electric scooter Black Friday deals
Looking back at last year’s Black Friday electric scooter deals can give us a good idea of what will be discounted at the 2023 sale. Many popular models received excellent discounts and dropped to their lowest price yet, and we’re hoping to see more of that – if not better – this year.
GoTrax XR Elite MAX: was $529 now $400 at GoTrax with code BFXRE
The GoTrax XR Elite Max is well-built and boasts 10-inch pneumatic tires for smooth commutes around the city. This affordable e-scooter gives you an 18-mile range on a single charge. It’s already discounted at GoTrax.com, but use code BFXRE, and you’ll get an extra $129 off.
NIU KQi2 Pro: was $599 now $449 at NIU
NIU’s offering a nice Black Friday discount on some of its best electric scooters, including the KQi2 Pro that is almost $150 off. This e-scooter has a top speed of 17.4mph and up to 24.9-mile range, as well as two 10-inch pneumatic rubber tires that are 2.3 inches thick for excellent shock absorption.
Segway Ninebot ES1L Electric Kick Scooter: was $399.99, now $299.99 at Amazon
Though the Segway ES1L scooter has seen similar pricing earlier in the year, this $100 discount is a cool 25% off. That’s a pretty good deal for this scooter considering it’s rated 4.5 out of 5 on Amazon. It has solid braking, a 12.4 mile range, and can transport heavier users without issue, not to mention it’s light enough at 24.9 lbs to pick up and put on a bus or take up a flight of stairs.
Gotrax G4: was $649, now $549 at Gotrax with code BlackFriday
This mid-tier e-scooter from Gotrax is getting a special $100 discount for the holidays. All you need to do is put in the coupon code BlackFriday at checkout. And, though that doesn’t put this in budget territory, you can spend less than $600 to get the Gotrax G4, which is rated 4.6 out of 5 for its long battery, smooth ride thanks to its 10-inch wheels, and sturdy build.
Fluid Freeride Horizon: was $899.00, now $649.00 at Fluid Freeride
This premium electric scooter from Fluid Freeride is getting a little more affordable for the holidays as it’s $250 cheaper than usual. And, with its 4.7 out of 5 rating on the site, it’s more than worth the price. It’s fast, does surprisingly well on inclines, and has excellent braking.
TurboAnt V8: was $799 now $619 at TurboAnt
If the 4 out of 5 rating on our review is any indication, we’re a fan of the TurboAnt V8 for its ridiculously long range and smooth ride, even over bumpy roads. And, while the TurboAnt V8 sits somewhere between the mid-range and premium options out there, it’s $180 cheaper for Black Friday. Just make sure to put in the coupon code V8180 when checking out.
Razor Turbo A Black Label: £135 £95 at Argos
Save £40 – Save £40 on this dimunitive scooter for a truly affordable ride that can get your child around town. At just 3.33kg and with 25 minutes of ride time, not to mention a 16 kph limit, it’s perfect for those old enough to ride around but too young to venture on their own.
EVO VT1 Folding Electric Scooter: £125 £99 at Argos
Anyone looking for a scooter for their children will appreciate the EVO VT1. It has solid tyres so you won’t have to worry about flats, a 6km range and a 8 kmh speed limit. For £26 off the going price, that’s not a bad deal. In fact, the only issue most parents have, as attested to by its 4 out of 5 rating on Argos, is that it doesn’t go fast enough.
Hover-1 Idol: was £330 now £220 at Argos
If you’re looking for a great pre-Black Friday deal, this Hover-1 e-scooter is 33% off its usual price. And, as its 4.1 out of 5 rating on Argos attests, it’s worth the cost. It’s speedy, has built-in Bluetooth speaker to soundtrack your journey, and has plenty of lighting including under the deck to make sure you are visible to oncoming traffic.
Pure Air Pro 2nd Gen: was £599 now £499 at Pure Electric
When the Pure Air Pro 2nd Gen came out, we were impressed by its long max range of 50km and solid build. The fact that it was cheaper and better than its predecessor, one of our favorites of 2020, helped as well. With £100 slashed from its sticker price, it’s even more affordable.
