The Pride Mobility Go Go Carbon is among the lightest foldable mobility scooters.

It weighs 39 lb., including the battery, and 35 lb. if you carry it separately. It measures 17.5 x 19 x 26.5 in. when folded.

It has safety features like lights and an automatic braking system, and its four-wheel design provides good stability.

However, it lacks several safety features that some users might expect or prefer, such as a horn, turn signals, mirrors, and a seat belt.

Pride Mobility Go Go Carbon Pros and Cons

As with all travel mobility scooters, it’s not a luxury or off-road model.

The most important features of a travel mobility socoter are its size and weight.

Pride Carbon handles these beautifully.

Go Go Carbon Portability

• Airline, car trunk, and cruise ship portable
• Total Weight: 39 lb
• Battery Weight: 4 lb
• Heaviest Piece: 35 lb
• Length x Width x Height: 40.3 x 17.5 x 26 in.
• Folded Length x Folded Width x Folded Height: 17.5 x 19 x 26.5 in.
• “Luggage” Folds with wheels and handle: Yes
• Airline friendly/watt hours: Yes / 288 Wh

The scooter is airline-friendly with a battery capacity of 288 watt-hours, just under the 300 Wh limit set by most airlines. This means you can take your Go Go Carbon on flights, opening up more travel possibilities.

Always check with the transportation provider about their storage requirements.

The Carbon will fit in most portable storage areas:

• Car trunk
• Car back seat
• Through a normal (23 in.) or handicap (32 in.) cruise stateroom door
• The airlines will check the Carbon mobility scooter into cargo.
• The scooter’s portability makes it suitable for trains and buses.

Go Go Carbon Indoors

The Go Go Carbon is a good indoor scooter. Its 17.5-inch width easily fits through narrow and standard doorways.

• Length x Width x Height: 40.3 x 17.5 x 26 in.
• Number of Wheels: 4
• Turning Radius: 53 in.

The Go Go Carbon’s compact size makes it suitable for various indoor environments, but its large turning radius may present challenges in tight spaces.

The scooter’s narrow width (17.5 in.) should allow it to pass through most doorways and hallways in a crowded home interior.

The scooter should perform well in wider aisles for grocery store use, but narrower spaces might require multiple-point turns.

The Go Go Carbon should navigate most areas comfortably in department stores, though tight corners around clothing racks might be challenging.

Go Go Carbon Outdoors

• Number of Wheels: 4
• Tire type: Solid
• Tire Size: Front 7″, Rear 8″
• Ground Clearance: 1.5″
• Incline rating: 9 degrees
• Max speed: 3.7 mph
• Travel range: 10.0 miles

The Go Go Carbon is a four-wheel scooter that offers good stability for outdoor use.

The solid tires mean you won’t have to worry about flats, which is convenient for maintenance. However, the ride might be rougher than air-filled tires, especially on uneven surfaces.

With only 1.5 inches of ground clearance, the Go Go Carbon may struggle with obstacles like large rocks, roots, or tall grass. This low clearance limits its off-road capabilities.

The Carbon’s maximum speed is 3.7 mph, an industry standard. Sooters of this type typically max out around four mph. This is adequate for most pedestrian areas but may feel slow in more open spaces.

The 10-mile travel range is decent for short to medium trips. It should be sufficient for quick rides or trips to the store. However, you might need to plan a recharge for a full day at a theme park or extended use on inclines and rough surfaces.

The 9-degree incline rating suggests the Go Go Carbon can handle modest slopes, but steep hills might be challenging.

Based on these specifications, the Pride Mobility Go Go Carbon should perform well on:

• Sidewalks
• Smooth paved paths
• Indoor surfaces
• Short, dry grass

It may struggle with:

• Gravel paths
• Wet or long grass
• Wooden trails, especially rough ones
• Areas with obstacles or uneven terrain

The Go Go Carbon is best suited for urban and suburban environments with mostly smooth surfaces.

Its low ground clearance and solid tires limit its off-road capabilities.

It should serve most users well for daily use on typical surfaces, but those needing to traverse more challenging outdoor environments might want to consider a more rugged model.

Go Go Carbon Comfort

• Seat cushion: Thin
• Seat height adjustable: Yes (26 to 34.6 in.)
• Armrests: No
• Armrests flip up: N/A
• Armrests width adjustable: N/A
• Suspension Seat: None
• Suspension Wheels: None
• Tire Type: Solid
• Tiller angle adjustable: No
• Tiller height adjustable: Yes
• Throttle ambidextrous: Yes
• Number of wheels: 4
• Seat slider: No

The Pride Mobility Go Go Carbon offers some comfort features but also has some limitations

The cushion is thin but useful. The seat height and tiller are adjustable by 8 inches, a huge range for a mobility scooter. Carbon is good for short, average, and tall people.

There are no armrests or suspension. Solid tires are “no flat” but will translate vibration to the rider.

Go Go Carbon Safety

• Lights: Yes
• Signals: No
• Horn: No
• Alarm: No
• Braking: Automatic Magnetic
• Mirrors: No
• Number of wheels: 4
• Seat belt: No

The Pride Mobility Go Go Carbon offers some important safety features while lacking others.

It comes with safety lights but no horn, turn signals or mirrors.

The automatic brakes are an excellent safety feature. They stop the mobility scooter when you let go of the throttle. Should you lose power on a hill, the scooter will automatically brake.

Go Go Carbon Convenience

• Cup Holder: None
• Phone Holder: Not specified
• Bluetooth Speaker: No
• USB Port: Yes
• Seat rotation: No
• Basket: No
• Bag: Not specified
• Under Seat: No
• Hitch receiver: No

The Go GO Carbon offers a USB port, but not a cup or phone holder. The seat does not rotate or slide, and there’s no hitch receiver to add on a cane or oxygen holder.

Final Thoughts

The Pride Go Go Carbon has a lightweight yet strong frame that will last for years.

It’s easy to pick up because it folds to a small size and weighs only 35 lb.

It is highly portable, fits in car trunks and through cruise ship doorways, and has a 4-wheel stable design.

The best part of the Go Go Carbon is that is has so much surface area for such a lightweight mobility scooter. The lightweight yet strong carbon material is the secret.
