Anyone here running an electric scooter alongside their classic?

I've been helping out at a few Renegades meets in Burlington and usually bring my old car, but with fuel and parking in town getting silly I've started looking at a small electric scooter for short hops. The iScooter i8M keeps coming up in searches, and I found iScooter i8M Electric Scooter Review while trying to work out whether it's actually suited to a heavier rider on Vermont's lumpy back roads.

My concern is that most of these commuter scooters look fine on smooth pavement but I'm not sure about the suspension and brakes on frost-damaged tarmac, and I don't want something that folds itself loose in the boot of a car. I have no hands-on time with one, so I'm only going off what I've read. Anyone here actually run a small scooter for errands or car-show trips? Would value real-world thoughts.
 
Different renegades to us we are based in the UK not USA
 
Different renegades is right — I'm in Columbus, and our local club meets are a mix of old cars and whatever gets people there. I've been weighing a small scooter mainly for the short run to the show field so I don't have to move the classic out of its spot, but folding looseness in a trunk worries me more than range. I came across MAXSHOT V1 Electric Scooter Review: Foldable Adult E-Scooter while digging into that, and the details on the fold mechanism are what I'm watching for. Anyone have experience with how these hold up after months of being folded and unfolded?
