Personal E-Mobility Devices include the following product types:
Hoverboards
A hoverboard is a self-propelled two-wheel electric device that is powered by an onboard battery pack. It has two wheels and a board between the wheels for the rider to stand and balance on. The rider shifts his/her weight to move the device in the desired direction. These devices have no handlebars.
Monorovers or electric unicycles
A monorover or an electric unicycle (e-unicycle) is a self-propelled electric device powered by an onboard battery pack. It has one or two centrally-located wheels with small platforms on either side, for the rider to stand on during operation. The rider shifts his/her weight to move the device in the desired direction. There are no handlebars or seats on self-propelled two-wheeled devices with a maximum design speed of 6 km/h.
Electric skateboard (e-skateboard)
An electric skateboard has four wheels and an added battery pack with a power system to aid riders with added torque while travelling. An electric skateboard may have a handheld remote control to allow the rider to control the device.
Electric scooter (e-scooter)
An electrical scooter is an e-mobility device for personal transportation. It has no seat and may take a number of different forms, including foldable scooters and kickstand scooters.
E-mopeds and powered e-cycles
Rideable scooters with seat (mopeds) have two or three wheels and a maximum speed of up to 45 km/h. Powered e-cycles have an electric motor and pedals for assistance, with maximum speed of up to 25 km/h. Both are used for personal transportation.
Self-balancing personal transport devices
A self-balancing transport device may have one or two wheels. These devices are powered by a rechargeable battery pack and use the shifting weight of the rider for balance. Common examples of self-balancing transport devices include Segway-branded products and OneWheel-branded ones.
Electric bicycle (e-bike, e-bicycle)
An electric bicycle, also called an e-bike, is a two-wheeled device used for personal transportation. Resembling an analog bicycle, these products have an added battery and a power system to aid the rider with added torque when traversing elevated or rough terrain.
Electric tricycle (e-trike, e-tricycle)
An electric tricycle is equivalent to an electric bicycle, with the exception of an additional wheel.
