Boomerbuggy X Pro Is a Wild Mobility Scooter Designed To Be Your Daily Personal Ride

That's right, the rather car-like machine before us today is nothing more than a mobility scooter that just so happens to have two doors, four wheels, headlights, turn signals, stop lights, and just about everything else that makes a car a car, all except an ICE (internal combustion engine). So, let's see what sort of toys some of us can get our hands on.

First and foremost, allow me to point out that the Boomerbuggy is not cheap. It is currently selling for a solid $8,000, and hopefully, that's in Canadian Dollars; Daymak, the crew behind the Boomerbuggy X Pro, is from Canada. That's roughly $5,800 American Dollars, so quite a bit no matter how you look at it, especially for those of us just searching for a mobility device for riding around town for as cheap as possible.

But there are clear benefits to spending this much if you're in the market for a scooter. The first and foremost important feature is the car feel, made possible by a body that encases and protects only one passenger, no matter the weather outside. It even has a windshield wiper in case you get caught in a storm.

Benefit number two is all about the interior and its features. Daymak makes a big deal out of this by offering complete climate control, not just heating but AC, too, a feature that wasn't available even in a $20,000+ Microlino.

Up next, a full-color LCD allows you to connect your smart device to the Boomerbuggy and answer calls, fiddle around with settings, and even watch movies. This display also shows you your backup camera view while reversing, and integrated speakers in the paneling are there, too. This display also shares the dash cluster with a speedometer and battery level indicator.

A few other features to not inside are the lockable doors, parking brake, power windows, and a manual sunroof, but most importantly, a single brake pedal and the controls mounted to your handlebar; this one doesn't have a steering wheel. The latter offers access to a three-speed selector, turn signals, and a horn.

Last but not least, it's the sheer size of this thing that a whole bunch of people are sure to love. Others are sure to hate it, especially when they see you rolling toward them on the sidewalk. Heck, even the video below boasts about this puppy being able to fit onto your average neighborhood sidewalk. That's going to make for some very interesting conversations, to say the least.

As we continue our exploration of the Boomerbuggy, there's plenty we can't see, so let's dive a tad deeper. By now, you've caught on that this vehicle is an electric one, and that means a motor. Well, while it isn't the biggest around, a powerhouse that operates at 1,200 W pushes all 520 lbs (236 kg) of vehicle around your town. One downside that some may see is the presence of a top speed of just 20 kph (12.4 mph), but when your reaction time isn't what it used to be, even this may seem a tad much for some.

Then there's the matter of range. Overall, 520 lbs isn't a very light vehicle, so a decently beefy battery pack has been added to ensure a range of up to 50 km (31 mi) on a full charge. A 46 Ah battery is running under 60V and cannot be removed, only during replacement, if ever needed. Once drained, it can take up to 12 hours to be back in your ride, crushing it around city streets, pardon me, sidewalks.

But the real question remains whether or not this machine is for you. To find out the answer, you have to try it out, which may be rather difficult if you're not in Canada. Luckily, there are plenty of dealers with Daymak products in stock, so give them a call, and maybe there's one up for test drives. Funny enough, some cities overseas in Europe even have Daymak products; it's just not clear that Boomerbuggy X Pros are part of the stock.

The only other question on my mind has a whole lot to do with whether or not this thing is from China. Well, according to Daymak's website, they manufacture these babies, so China is out of the question. Oh, and if Daymak sounds familiar, it's because they also created the Avvenire line of EVs that have been grabbing a lot of attention in recent years, proudly built in Canada.
