Sponsored sectionThis banner supports independent signposting for mobility vehicles placed by DomusHelp within the 45 km/h tier in Entremont District.

Mobility vehicles limited to 45 km/h in Entremont District
DomusHelp presents, for information and comparison, personal mobility vehicles whose official documents state a maximum design speed of 45 km/h or a corresponding technical limit. The page does not automatically include every vehicle capable of reaching 45 km/h; the official characteristics of the exact model are decisive. Depending on the model, this may include motorised tricycles or quadricycles, microcars, multi-wheeled electric vehicles, adapted vehicles, special vehicles or other light vehicles; the list remains illustrative and is not a legal classification. The 45 km/h tier is a DomusHelp editorial grouping and is not, by itself, a Swiss legal vehicle category. Vehicle type, design, power, weight, dimensions, intended use, approval and documents determine the applicable rules. Before purchase, hire or use in public space, the exact model, its maximum design speed, permitted areas, minimum age, required driving licence, registration, number plate, insurance, mandatory equipment and any protective requirements need to be checked. DomusHelp does not decide road admission or individual suitability.

Advertising
This space is available
This space in the page body can carry clearly labelled advertising for a business, brand or institution connected with personal mobility vehicles up to 45 km/h, batteries, charging, accessories, trials, hire, sales, delivery, maintenance or repair.
Presence in this space gives no access to enquiries, no priority in the directory and no influence over DomusHelp’s editorial content.
Every advert is reviewed before publication. This advertising space is not a recommendation, endorsement, certification or prescription and does not constitute medical, technical, regulatory or road-use validation or a conformity or approval check of the vehicle, its accessories or the services presented. It does not guarantee suitability for a particular person.
Professional providers in the directory
Businesses and self-employed providers listed in this directory may, according to their activity, offer sales, hire, trials, delivery, configuration, maintenance or repair of mobility vehicles limited to 45 km/h and compatible accessories in Entremont District.
Each provider will have a short entry and may, where a detailed page exists, present its offer, service area, trial, delivery, take-back or return terms, vehicle documents, after-sales support and contact methods separately.
No provider is yet published on this page. DomusHelp does not create a named entry without verified information and a clear publication framework.
An editorial tier, not a legal category
DomusHelp uses the 45 km/h tier to organise navigation and make comparisons easier. Speed alone is not enough to determine a vehicle’s legal status. Design, power, weight, number of wheels, intended use, approval and official documents remain decisive.
Identify the exact vehicle type
Motorised tricycle, quadricycle, multi-wheeled electric vehicle, special vehicle or other light vehicle: the commercial name does not always identify the regulatory category. Record the make, model, version, serial number, manufacturer’s information, vehicle type and entries in the admission documents.
Maximum design speed
The 45 km/h tier needs checking against the technical data sheet, manufacturer’s plate and admission documents. A displayed speed, software limit, downhill speed or sales statement does not replace the officially recognised maximum design speed. The vehicle’s maximum speed must also be distinguished from the speed up to which electric assistance operates. Modifications, reprogramming or removal of a limiter may alter conformity, classification and road admission.
Approval and vehicle documents
Before purchase or hire, ask which documents accompany the model: technical sheet, instructions, any required conformity or approval evidence, road-admission documents and warranty terms. A sales statement does not replace these documents.
Age, driving licence and riding conditions
Minimum age, any driving-licence requirement and riding conditions vary with the exact vehicle type. Check them with the competent authority and the model’s official documents rather than inferring a rule from the 45 km/h speed alone.
Insurance, registration and number plate
Depending on the vehicle category, third-party liability insurance, registration, a registration document or number plate may be mandatory, optional or not applicable. The seller should explain the model’s status and the information needs confirming before public use.
Carriageway, cycle route, pavement and permitted areas
Not every 45 km/h vehicle may use the same areas. Check the rules for the carriageway, cycle lanes and tracks, pavements, pedestrian zones, paths, public transport and parking, as well as any restrictions concerning motorways and semi-motorways.
Dimensions, weight and stability
Width, length, height, total weight, turning circle, centre of gravity, track width and wheelbase affect access, lifts, bends, cross-slopes and transport. Stability needs testing with the load and accessories actually intended.
Controls, braking and reverse
Acceleration, braking, emergency stop, reverse, steering, speed limiter and displays need to be understood and usable without excessive effort. Starting, precise stopping, turning and slow manoeuvres should be practised in a safe setting.
Slopes, kerbs, surfaces and weather
Slopes, ramps, cross-falls, kerbs, paving, gravel, snow, ice and soft ground change stability, grip and stopping distance. Manufacturer limits for gradient, obstacle crossing and payload must not be exceeded.
Energy, battery, charging or fuel
Depending on the model, energy may come from a rechargeable battery, fuel or another configuration. For an electric vehicle, range depends in particular on the battery, its age, temperature, weight, slopes, stops and driving style. For every model, check the energy source, consumption or real-world range, charging or refuelling procedure, intended location, ventilation, moisture protection and future maintenance or replacement costs.
Lighting, visibility and signalling
Lights, reflectors, indicators, warning device, mirrors and other equipment may depend on the vehicle and use. Visibility by day, at night and in poor weather needs assessing; accessories must not cover a light or alter width inappropriately.
Payload, passenger and accessories
The person’s weight, luggage, shopping, any passenger, trailer or accessories must remain within permitted limits. Every fixing needs to be compatible and must not obstruct steering, braking, visibility or escape routes.
Storage, parking and transport
The vehicle needs to be stored and charged without blocking a passage or creating fire, trip or theft risks. For transport, check weight, securing points, ramp, lifting equipment and manufacturer instructions.
Trial, familiarisation and handover
A trial should reproduce everyday routes, access points, slopes, bends and manoeuvres. Handover needs to cover controls, braking, charging, any freewheel mode, documents, agreed accessories and after-sales contact details.
Maintenance, parts and repairs
Tyres, brakes, steering, fixings, lighting, battery, charger, any software and safety devices need checks under the maintenance schedule. Modification, incompatible parts or improvised repairs may alter conformity and safety.
Prepare an enquiry
Before contacting a provider, describe the vehicle type sought, routes, surfaces, slopes, distances, access dimensions, storage and charging location, payload, transport, accessories and budget.
Purchase, hire, quotation and contract
A quotation or contract should distinguish the exact model, new or used condition, accessories, battery, warranty, delivery, trial, maintenance, repairs, insurance, return costs and cancellation terms. Any regulatory promise should be documented.
Funding and possible support
Support from the IV, AHV, supplementary benefits or another scheme depends on personal circumstances, the type of aid and a prior procedure. Funding must not be assumed. The process needs clarifying before purchase or hire.
Clear limits
This page does not determine the legal category, road admission, right to use an area or the right vehicle for a person and does not carry out any approval check. Rules depend on the model and situation. After a defect, loss of control, collision, battery damage or serious doubt, use should stop until a competent check has been completed.
