Step-by-step

  1. Find the IP rating

    Check the product spec sheet for IP54, IP55, IPX5, or similar wording.

  2. Explain the limit

    Tell customers that splash resistance is not the same as riding through floods or washing with pressure water.

  3. Inspect after wet use

    Dry charging ports, deck seams, and display areas before storage or charging.

Waterproof ratings describe resistance to splashes and water jets, not deep immersion. Dealers should explain IP ratings honestly to reduce warranty disputes.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can electric scooters be ridden in rain?
