More than a glorified skateboard with a handle, the current crop of electric scooters are micromobility powerhouses that can make most short car trips around town a thing of the past. Instead of paying way too much per gallon for gasoline to take you to run errands, riding an e-scooter means carving up the streets on something more fun, lighter, cleaner, and infinitely easier to park. Right now, Walmart has a well-reviewed electric scooter on sale with a sizable discount.
The Aovopro TMax 500W Foldable Electric Scooter is on sale for $240 at Walmart, 44% off its normal $429 price tag. It’s a full-featured e-scooter that has the portability, power, safety, and convenience that has made them ubiquitous in modern cities and suburbs.
Where lesser scooters make you feel every bump, the dual hydraulic shock absorbers on each wheel make for a smoother ride on the 10-inch honeycomb solid tires that are designed to last for a long time. The 500W motor can get this thing going up to 21 mph, but it’s not just power. Safety was clearly a focus for the designers, as evidenced by the dual braking system with drum and electric brakes, UL 2272 safety certification for the electric system, and an onboard headlamp and brake light. The whole thing can be controlled via the onboard handlebar interface and tweaked using the companion app.

One shopper wrote that this scooter is “way better, especially on the battery life,” than the several others they’d tried before. Even in the mountains of Colorado, it “loses just a little power going uphill” but it’s “up to the challenge” overall. They’re “happy with the purchase and overall performance” of this scooter that they “highly recommend.”
Another customer called this “very good scooter” and “amazing low-budget find” that “exceeded all expectations.” It offers an “amazing ride, smooth suspension, and good speed.”
