Where it sells

InMotion sells its electric scooters in the US through its own store at inmotionworld.com.
The store names no US legal entity and gives its operator only as Inmotion.
The brand also sells as Inmotion Direct on Amazon and on Walmart.
The store lists six standing scooter models in this category, from a folding commuter under 35 lb to a 50 mph dual-motor machine.
Walmart sells InMotion scooters through the brand's own marketplace store, but no scooter listing there reaches ten native unflagged reviews once reviews syndicated from the brand's site and Incentivized ones are dropped; none of Best Buy, Target, Costco, Dick's Sporting Goods, REI, Home Depot or Lowe's sells InMotion scooters (October 2026).

Description

The InMotion S1F is a folding commuter scooter with a 675 Wh battery (the manual prints watt-hours, not amp-hours) and a 500 W rear hub motor (1,000 W peak, which the product page calls a 1000W motor). It has a drum brake with electronic braking, front and rear suspension and 10-inch tubeless pneumatic tires.

It weighs 52.9 lb and is rated for a 308.6 lb rider aged 14 to 60 and 130 to 200 cm tall. The maker claims 24.9 mph and up to 59 miles at 18 km/h with a 75 kg rider. Its turn signals switch on from a lean sensor, and the manual rates it IP55 where the product page says IP54.

It charges in about 7 hours and offers eco, standard and sport modes. On Walmart it is sold by INMOTION Direct.
