Heartway Maven S12 Mobility Scooter
The Heartway Maven S12 Mobility Scooter is the long-range road and community model in MoveSmart's Heartway range. It is larger and faster than the Blaze, with a 700W motor, 160 kg safe working load, full suspension and up to 45 km travel range for users who expect to cover more distance around town, on paths and through the community.
At up to 15 km/h, the Maven is designed for regular outdoor mobility rather than car-boot portability. A detailed LCD console, full LED lighting, mirrors, front basket and swivel seat make it a well-equipped everyday scooter for longer trips.
Where the Maven Fits in the Heartway Range
The Freestyler is the compact automatic-folding travel model. The Blaze is the narrower mid-size outdoor scooter. The Maven steps up to 160 kg capacity, 15 km/h speed and up to 45 km range for longer community travel. The Maven XR then adds more ground clearance, a 900W motor and semi-all-terrain tyres for more demanding outdoor surfaces.
Choose the Maven when distance, road/community comfort and everyday equipment matter more than compact size, but you do not need the extra bulk and ruggedness of the XR.
700W Motor and 80Ah Batteries
The Maven uses a 700W motor powered by two 12V 80Ah batteries. This combination supports a travel range of up to approximately 45 km under suitable conditions.
Real-world range varies with user weight, gradients, surface, temperature, battery condition and driving style. For regular long-distance use, plan with a sensible reserve rather than relying on the absolute maximum range.
Full Suspension for Community Travel
Double A-arm front suspension and a rear shock absorber help smooth normal road and path irregularities. The Maven is intended for substantial everyday outdoor use, but its approximately 8 cm ground clearance is lower than the Maven XR's 17 cm, which is one reason the XR is the better choice for rougher terrain.
LCD Console, Lighting and Visibility
The LCD console displays speed, temperature, battery status, trip distance and odometer information. Full LED lighting, mirrors and indicators support visibility and practical community use, especially where longer trips extend into lower-light conditions.
Swivel Seat and Adjustable Driving Position
The seat swivels to assist access and transfers, while the armrests are adjustable. The seating area is approximately 50.8 cm wide by 48 cm deep, providing more space than the Blaze.

Is this mobility scooter available for delivery across New Zealand?
We can and do deliver to customers across New Zealand — however, mobility scooters and power chairs are more complex products and can be sizeable, so we generally recommend finding a local retailer who can provide hands-on service and ongoing support. It is also a good idea to test-drive or trial a mobility scooter before committing to a purchase. MoveSmart focuses its sales and servicing within the Central Plateau region, but we are always happy to chat. Get in touch and we can offer advice, suggest a trusted dealer closer to you, or work with you to tailor a solution.
