As quite a new tech in most countries, and not even fully legal in some, it’s hard to analyze the historic Black Friday trends of the vehicle sector, but we’re going to do our best based on what’s happened before.
When the Black Friday deals roll around on November 26 (or very likely before, as some retailers start their sales way in advance), will likely see some electric scooter sales rolled out too, at least from some of the bigger brands and retailers.
Over last year’s Black Friday season, we saw quite a few discounts on e-scooters in the US, and a fair few in the UK too, but Prime Day earlier in 2021 brought far fewer, so any guess at the Black Friday deals right now just that – a guess.
With laws, regulations and reception to electric scooters lightening up in various countries around the world, we’d like to see lots more deals on the eco-friendly vehicles for Black Friday 2021, especially since our list of the best e-scooters has been changing quite a bit with top new models over the past year.
Black Friday electric scooter deals: FAQs
Where will the best Black Friday electric scooter deals be found?
While general retailers often rule the roost for Black Friday deals, we actually find the specialist shops are better for electric scooters, and these can be specific depending on your nation or state.
Right now, before Black Friday, we’d recommend looking up local shops near you that sell electric scooters, and keeping tabs on these retailers’ websites during the sales period – this might be the best place to find a discount.
Some online shops also sell electric scooters, especially the websites for bigger retail brands, and these might be worth checking out too for some big price cuts.
When will the best e-scooter Black Friday deals start in 2021?
We often see the smaller electric scooter stores start their Black Friday sales the week before Black Friday itself, so in the run-up to the dark weekend, it’s worth checking around.
The bigger shops will likely start their discounts over the weekend itself, and we might see some new deals unveiled for Cyber Monday on November 29, so it’s definitely worth keeping your eyes out.
At TechRadar we’ll be covering the best electric scooter Black Friday deals, so bookmark this web page for updates over the sales season.
Should I buy an electric scooter in the Black Friday sales?
If you’ve been weighing up buying an electric scooter, the Black Friday deals might be pushing you towards picking one up, but we’d urge you to check out electric scooter laws in your country before you even think about the deals.
Once you know you can legally ride your electric scooter, it’s also important to ask yourself why you need it. If you’re looking for a commuter vehicle and need something now, there’s no point in waiting for the Black Friday sales – you should get on the road now!
If you’re just looking for a scooter for fun, whether it’s for the occasional ride to get the air, or for non-urgent journeys, Black Friday will likely bring some good discounts so you may as well wait.
