Quick Answer
The Golden Buzzaround EX GB148 is a full-size portable 4-wheel scooter with a 350 lb weight capacity, up to 29 km of range, and two U1 batteries with wireless removal. It disassembles into 6 pieces in 4 quick steps for the trunk and ships free across Canada.

The Golden Buzzaround EX GB148 is a full-size four-wheel scooter. It carries up to 350 lb, travels up to 29 km on a charge from two U1 batteries and reaches 8 km/h. It rides on comfort spring suspension and 9 in solid tires, with 4 in of ground clearance.

Comes apart for the car: Golden's wireless disassembly takes it into 6 pieces in 4 steps, with no wires to disconnect. The heaviest piece is the 53 lb front half, and each of the two battery packs weighs 24 lb.

Comfort and control: The quilted high-back seat is 18 × 16 in and sets at three heights. The tiller adjusts to any angle and works with either hand, with a battery gauge and a USB charging port. Ultrabright LED lights include an angle-adjustable headlight, a tail light and a V-shaped running light. A front basket comes with it.

For flying, the Golden Buzzaround CarryOn folds and runs on lithium batteries. The Pride Go-Go Super Portable is a lighter lift, and the Travel Buggy HELIX turns tighter indoors. Golden's Buzzaround EX sell sheet has the full details.

How far on one charge

29 km on a full charge, and what trims it.

Golden publishes 29 km as the operating range on two U1 batteries. Like every range figure it is a maximum measured in ideal conditions.

Range

29 km per charge

✓Golden's published operating range.
✓The longest of the BuzzAround range.
•Measured in ideal conditions on flat ground.

Top speed

8 km/h on the flat

✓Golden's published maximum.
✓Quicker than the XL+ at 7.6 km/h.
•Electronic speed control on the tiller.

Batteries

Two U1 packs

✓Golden fits two U1 batteries for maximum range.
✓They lift out without tools.
•24 lb each, and they charge overnight from a wall outlet.

What trims it

Hills cold and stops

✓Gradients, cold weather and a heavier rider each take a share.
✓Stop start pavement uses more than an open path.
•Charge it overnight and it is full every morning.

Made to fit this frame

Accessories that fit the Buzzaround EX.

Most of these hang on the accessory bracket behind the seat, which is why they fit the EX and the LX but not the folding CarryOn. Every one is a genuine Golden part.

Two things worth a phone call first. Golden's own manual says the rear accessory bracket is not fitted to every scooter at the factory, and the basket, walker holder, oxygen holder and cane holders all hang on it. The oxygen, walker and quad cane holders also come in a high back and a stadium seat version.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • The GB148 is the 4-wheel version of the Buzzaround EX. Golden also makes a 3-wheel version (GB118) of the same model. The 4-wheel is more stable on uneven outdoor terrain, curb cuts, and gravel, while the 3-wheel has a tighter turning radius. If you're using it mostly outdoors or want maximum stability, choose this 4-wheel GB148.
  • The Buzzaround EX uses two U1 batteries that disconnect wirelessly, so there are no plugs or cables to fiddle with. You lift each pack straight out of the rear well and carry it inside to charge. Each pack weighs 24 lb. It's a major upgrade over older scooters where you had to disconnect cables every time.
  • Yes. The Buzzaround EX disassembles into 6 pieces in 4 quick steps, no tools required. The front section is the heaviest piece at 53 lb, so some people will want a second set of hands when loading it. The battery packs (24 lb each) and the seat (23 lb) lift out separately to keep each piece manageable.
  • It fits through standard doorways. At 22 inches wide, the GB148 passes through interior doorways with room to spare. Keep the 54 inch turning radius in mind though. This is a full size portable scooter, so tight hallway corners and small rooms take more maneuvering than a compact model. If most of your driving is indoors, a tighter turning scooter like the Travel Buggy HELIX is the easier fit.
  • The EX is built for road trips and car travel rather than flying. It uses two U1 sealed lead acid batteries and weighs 161 lb assembled, so it is not the right scooter for air travel. If you fly often, look at the Buzzaround CarryOn, which folds flat and uses a lithium ion battery that Golden markets as airline friendly.
