Best Pure Electric scooters in Australia
Compare current Pure Electric scooters in Australia by price, realistic range, carrying weight, suspension, weather resistance and intended use.
The short answer
Pure Electric's Australian range runs from a low-cost, lightweight Air5 to compact-folding and suspension-equipped models. The right choice depends on whether price, portability, range or ride comfort matters most; every model is capped at 25 km/h, but public-riding rules still depend on the state.

Research notes
Why each model made the list
Pure Electric Air5 Pro
- Why shortlist it
- A useful step up in claimed range and peak power over the base Air5 for a modest price increase.
- Trade-off
- Still no suspension, and real world range will sit well under the claimed figure.
Pure Electric Advance+
- Why shortlist it
- A distinctive forward-facing riding stance, strong 62 km claimed range and light 16.2 kg weight.
- Trade-off
- No suspension, and the unusual riding stance will not suit every rider.
Pure Electric Air5 Pro+ Suspension
- Why shortlist it
- Front telescopic and rear adjustable shock suspension plus a useful 50 km claim at a still-affordable price.
- Trade-off
- Heavier than the rest of the Air5 range at 21.4 kg due to the added suspension and larger battery.
Pure Electric Advance Flex
- Why shortlist it
- Foldable handlebars and a genuinely compact fold for storage, plus strong IP65 water resistance.
- Trade-off
- No suspension, and it was listed as Coming Soon at the AU distributor at time of research.
Buying advice
What to check before you buy
Current and new-release adult Pure Electric models are compared using the Australian manufacturer's published specifications and clearly labelled ScootFinder planning estimates. ScootFinder has not physically tested every model.
- Choose the Air5 range by battery and suspension needs, not by name alone.
- Treat the manufacturer range as a controlled-condition maximum and leave reserve for the return trip.
- Check the 16 to 21 kg listed weight against any stairs or public transport transfers.
- Confirm current sale price, stock and Australian warranty before ordering.
- Use the state panel on each model page before riding in public.

FAQs
Common questions
Which Pure Electric scooter is best for short trips?
The Air5 is the lowest-cost and one of the lightest choices. Its smaller battery suits short, relatively flat trips where easy storage and price matter more than suspension or long range.
Which Pure scooter has suspension?
The Air5 Pro+ Suspension is the comfort-focused model in the current Australian Air5 range. The lighter Air5 and Air5 Pro rely on their pneumatic tyres instead.
Are Pure Electric scooters legal in Australia?
Their 25 km/h specification can fit the relevant device class, but public-riding permission, speed limits, locations and rider requirements still vary by state and territory.
