motor scooter

Small urban vehicle

A motor scooter is a small motorcycle with a step-through frame and a platform for the rider's feet.

Unlike motorcycles, scooters typically have smaller wheels, automatic transmissions, and an enclosed engine beneath the seat.

Vespas and similar Italian-style scooters are iconic examples: She zips around the city on her motor scooter.
