I'd like to buy this for commuting. I will be going up and down some gentle but long slopes. Does it work well uphill?

Yes, it has plenty of power if you stay within the weight limits. For an adult I would recommend a E-300.

it works fine up a slight slope but keep in mind my grandson only weighs 52 pounds, its kind of a lightweight scooter. There are bigger and heavier scooters, they even have seats, you might be happier with one of those.

I really don't know, we live in Fl and it's pretty flat around here. Sorry. I will say it's a great scooter!

No, It goes up stairs better than the standard two wheeler, but the wheels need to be about twice the diameter and the handle longer. It does do good over rough terrain.

It works fine... it goes up and comes down without issues. It makes a grinding noise as it moves, not that it's a problem, just saying what happens. It can go pretty steep.

i bought it for a gift. but they love it and it does climb hills. you may want to get the next up model for s.f hills tho.

i disagree. i had problems getting up steep hills with this scooter so i returned it. i am a 180 lb man and this scooter is not designed for adults who go long distances or up steep hills.

Not really. It's good for walking on an incline but I'd look around for a better one. This one seems to be weak in the rear for running.

Yes, the motorized incline is really nice. I like to adjust as am building up endurance.

Going uphill in my 2007 Infiniti G35 was no problem. The only issue with using these on a rear wheel drive is your do not have the steering and braking as the traction is still on the rear wheels. I am still glad I used them but I had more control when put on my front wheel drive car.

That depends, if it's loose gravel, not so well. If it's more compact then it should be great. Hills would be doable if the child is older and can use the brake on the downhill. They really are so fun. I purchased one for my son and then my three daughters after they saw how fun it was then two neighbor boys went out and bought one after trying theirs out.

it will "assit" around two thousand (2,000) lbs up a hill. really it is a great motor. works best with lithium batt.

It can go up slight hills but the battery needs to be fully charged to do so. It is most ideal on sidewalks.

Barbara, this model works well on level ground only and is perfect for inside a factory. The Stand N Ride will not climb the slightest hill / grade. I bought a standing EVRider for outdoor use. see www.evrider.com

I have a couple of those hills too. A lot of the hills in my area are in the 45 to 60 degree range. The bike handles them beautifully. Put it in low gear before you get to the hill. Be prepared to pedal. You can do it. I love this bike.

It works great for commuting. I use mine in a Jeep Wrangler with no a/c meaning windows are usually down, and I can carry on a phone conversation fairly well. I've had a few issues at highway speeds but no problem on side streets.

Sure it will won't be as fast as going down a hill. Hope this helps. You will have a fun don't let that stop you from buying it. Enjoy

It depends entirely on the grade and your fitness level. I used to race bicycles for a living and I can hande short moderate grades on this bike. But I would not want this bike on a long steep climb. As always, your mileage may vary. If in doubt go for a bike with multiple gears. Going overgeard on a hill can put a lot of stress on your knees.

Yes, it does on decent. Not sure why it does not on climb. We have used it from Maine to Alaska, we are no on our way back. We have loved this GPS, it has so many features. We still are finding out new things about it. CJ
