Scooter Economy
To calculate your ROI (return on investment).
Take the PPG (price per gal. gas)
Divide MPG (miles per gal)
Example:
PPG $4.00/90(MPG) =approx.4.4 cents per mile
Take the PPG (price per gal. gas)
Divide MPG (miles per gal)
Example:
PPG $4.00/90(MPG) =approx.4.4 cents per mile
Compare this to a typical car getting 15 MPG
PPG $4.00/15 = 26.6 cents per mile
If you commute 10 miles a day to work or school.
A typical motor scooter would cost .44 cents per day
A typical car would cost $2.66 per day
Obviously gas guzzlers such as SUVs would cost much more.

In addition to fuel savings, scooter insurance is much less than auto insurance, again giving ownership of a motor scooter a great ROI.
Affordable scooters in the $1000 - $1200 range are economical
and dependable transportation with excellent ROI. This is considering a brand new unit, however if your budget is lower you should consider a good used scooter, many are available in the $500 - $700 range. Talk about ROI, it should only take a few months to get your purchase price back with this option.
