What is Road legal markets?

In short

The countries where a brand states road approval, with an ABE or RDW basis for the claim.

Road legal markets are the countries where a brand states its product is approved for public roads, supported by an ABE or RDW document. A scooter can be electrically sound and still be illegal to ride on the street if it lacks that approval where you live. Check the market list before you ride, not after. Egret, Engwe, engwe-bikes and KuKirin are all listed as stating approval for de, while AnyHill Electric Scooter is listed for us. Riding outside those markets can void your insurance and leave you facing a fine.
