When I meet people on the street, they usually ask me how much the GIO electric scooters go for. They say “How much does one of those cost? $2000? $1500?” They’re always surprised to hear that they retail for $1000, but can be bought for less on the auction. One of the GIO electric scooter advantages is a matter of price point. Compared to a gas-powered scooter, which requires a motorcycle license, plates and insurance (not to mention regular visits to the pumps), a GIO electric scooter is incredibly affordable! Since getting the scooter, I’ve saved almost $250 in TTC fare, gas and parking.
What I’m trying to say is: if you watch the auction, you can get your own GIO scooter for around $260. It can save you money.
