JYD Hippo Mobility Scooter

The JYD Hippo is a full-size mobility scooter for daily outdoor riding, with front and rear damping suspension and three storage areas: a front basket, a lockable rear compartment, and an under-seat compartment. It carries up to 300 lbs, runs a 500W motor to a top speed of 10 mph, and covers up to 31 miles per charge on a 48V 20Ah lead-acid battery. It weighs 229 lbs and is delivered fully assembled.

• Up to 31 miles per charge — 48V 20Ah lead-acid battery; charges in 6–10 hours.
• 500W motor, 10 mph top speed — climbs up to 12°.
• Front and rear damping suspension — 14" front and rear tires and 4.7" ground clearance for a smoother ride.
• Three storage areas — front basket plus lockable rear and under-seat compartments.
• Front and rear drum brakes — braking distance of 16 ft or less.
• Lights and digital display — headlights, tail lights, turn signals, and a license plate lamp, with a digital display.
• Rear passenger footrests — built-in footrests at the rear.
• Delivered fully assembled — charger and battery included.

Three Storage Areas

A front basket for quick grabs, a lockable rear compartment for valuables, and an under-seat compartment for everything else — the Hippo has room for groceries and daily essentials without add-on bags.
