Tao Motor Pony 50 Gas Scooter vs X-treme XG-575-DS A-Blaze Gas Scooter

Buy the Tao Motor Pony 50 if you want a street-legal, sit-down scooter with electric start, disc brakes front and rear, and CARB approval for California. Buy the X-treme XG-575-DS A-Blaze if you want a stand-up, folding scooter with a two-speed shifter, a 300 lb weight limit and a pull start. The Pony 50 is heavier and slower but easier to live with daily; the A-Blaze is faster and more portable but needs a pull start and is not CARB certified. Owners rate the Pony 50 4.1 out of 5 across 91 ratings, praising its light feel and finish; A-Blaze buyers praise its smooth running and portability but note the seat is not included.

• Choose the Tao Motor Pony 50 if you need a legal, electric-start scooter for daily errands and you live in California.
