Who well does the scooter perform in heavy rain? Will it get damaged?

This scooter can sustain light drizzle to moderate sprinkle, any more than that may damage the electronic controller. Pretty much precipitation that may cause moisture to seep through the plastic deck is a no no.

Water is bad for the scooter. Check with the store for details. I wouldn't do it.

Not a waterproof system. Why would you want to ride this or any open vehicle in the rain. I have a motorcycle. totally capable of driving in the rain. however, When it rains, I use the car.

Yes, it will absolutely get damaged, if it's similar to the 2012 model. Not weatherized.

Mine has been in heavy rain, but motor and or controller box below deck must be kept dry, so I cover deck and motor and key with common kitchen cling wrap, rolling it over and around whole deck and battery case & motor. But don't leave it on to trap moisture; remove wrap and dry everything before putting away.

We just had a couple pretty good rainstorms over the last couple days and it still works fine. It is directly in the weather also.

It will be a rough ride on cobblestones! But, any scooter will be a rough ride on that surface.

I have ridden a few times in the rain with it with no problems. Though I have to say the rain was light and may not have really tested it.

No breakdowns on our scooters! Our neighbor has had one for 1 year and has had no breakdowns either. The tires are very sturdy on the E300S. My husband and I ride our kids scooters when we take them to the desert. They will even do a small amount of off road if the sand isn't too deep - very fun!

Mine has gone through numerous rains and storms and hasn't let any rain through. Love it.

Like anything that is out in the rain, over time it is going to wear out. With this I would think the first thing to go would be the wheels. But you'd probably get your money's worth before that happens unless you are in a heavy rain area. I love mine but it is indoors.

I used mine in a race about one month ago.... It rained 4 hrs.... We got 3 inches of rain that day. It still works like new.

it comes with an extra rain cover which seems to work. when I ride, it rains.

Rode with it in a heavy rain for 3 hours, and it no longer works reliably, so I think that answers the question... Same happened with the PlanetBike tail taillight...

I've been in the rain with it and haven't had a problem. Make sure that the charger cover is in place as it detaches easily.

I had no problem, I had a Motor accident back in January and my right arm is still recovering from it and I was able to handle it w/no problem. I have not spent the night in it yet, but it has been able to withstand the rain and slight wind that we have been blessed with this month here in the Tampa Bay Area in Florida. Even if there is projected rain I will still go camping w/it. I would recommend it as a gr888 buy

I have used mine in the rain and had no problems, so far they've been fine.

I have an XB-300li and ride it 20 miles a day north of Seattle for about five months now. I ride in extremely heavy rain and go through 6" deep puddles at 15mph and its still working. I used Loctite silicon to fill in a few gaps I saw around some of the wiring. I also put a ziplock baggy over the throttle secured with a rubber band. If you are going to use it in heavy rain, I suggest mounting a rear fender on the front because they are larger. Thats what I did.

I have not rode in heavy rain with it. But it has done great in light rain.

I am certain about weather resistance. I have used them many times in the rain. I don't know how well they would do if submerged, but I have never even had a glitch in rainy conditions, both walking and riding motorcycle.
