mariadecastro,

Thank you very much for the information and the quick answer. It's very helpful.

As much as I can understand from what you've said - at the moment there are no
regulations at all regarding these kind of vehicles.

Are there any rules about the E-Scooters except those you mention ?
I try to find info at the gov web site but I found nothing.
Is it possible for you to post me a link for the specific rules at the authority web site ?

Kind Regards,

Josefin.

Hi everyone,

I want to buy an electric scooter (see attached picture) in spain an I need
some legal info about it:
1. Is it legal in Spain ? What is the max legal engine limit (in watts) ?
2. Do I need to wear safety accessories (as helmet, etc...) ?
3. Is it possible to go with this e-scooter everywhere or just on roads/sidewalks ?
4. What does this e-scooter “must have” in order to be legal in spain ?

I know it's not easy to answer these questions, but I have an option to buy a very nice one
and I can't find any legal info about it (My spanish is not that good ).

Kind Regards,
Josefin.

Hi Everyone,

I'm intending to move to Spain in the next few months and I'm considering
my transportation options at the moment. From what I've heard mopeds
are very common in barcelona and I would like to know what is the estimated
expense for a 50cc moped. Any help will be greatly appreciated:

1. How much does a new 50cc moped will cost ?
2. What are the costs of petrol if I’m using one tank a week ?
3. How much a MOT will cost me ?
4. How much insurance (mandatory, third party, etc...) will cost me ?
5. Do I have more expenses which I’m not aware of ?

Again, Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Kind Regards,
Josefin.
