Roma Virgo
Our verdict
Clean, consistent paperwork and a 136 kg limit, but no heaviest-piece weight and a claimed range of 7.5 miles.
Best for: riders who can test-lift one first, or have a helper.
Not for: anyone who must know the heaviest lift before buying without seeing it.
Based on the maker's published documents. We have not physically tested this product.

Where the maker’s own documents disagree
None on the figures that matter. The page gives the limit as “136kg (21St 5lbs)” and elsewhere as “Up to 21.5st”, a 2 lb difference.
Where these figures come from
We read the maker's documents for this product when we wrote Best Car Boot Mobility Scooters UK: 6 Portable Scooters Ranked, where it is ranked number 5. The guide names each document and explains how the products were ranked.
Specifications are shown as the maker prints them in its own product page, leaflet or manual, read on the date given. Where a price is shown it names the seller and the date. We have not physically tested these products, and no maker or retailer can pay to be listed or placed higher. Not sure what suits you? An occupational therapist or your local wheelchair service can advise.
