A motorized foldable scooter has a frame, at least a front and rear wheel connected to the frame, a seat supported by the frame, a steering arrangement for the front wheel, and an electric motor, driving the rear wheel through a transmission. The frame has at least front and rear frame parts movably connected through a substantially vertical rotary axis to move the frame parts between an extended position of use and a collapsed resting position. The steering arrangement and the seat, and/or the front and rear frame parts are shaped such with respect to each other and the rotary axis that they at least partly nest in lateral direction of the scooter when the frame parts are in the collapsed resting position.
