Abstract: A three wheeled electrically driven scooter having a front wheel drive. The scooter consists of three main components including a steering column having a front wheel attached at its bottom, a platform assembly and a seat assembly having a seat thereon. The front wheel drive includes a planetary speed reducing gear. The steering column is movably attached to the platform in such a manner so that the steering column can be adjusted in various positions relative to a vertical line and relative to the platform assembly. The seat assembly is mounted on the platform assembly so that the seat assembly can swing from a position where a person can sit on the seat on the seat assembly to an inactive position enabling the person to stand on a platform of the platform assembly.
