What is turn signals?
Turn signals are integrated front and rear indicator lights that flash to signal a turn, triggered from the handlebar or app. They let a rider signal without taking a hand off the bars, improving predictability in traffic — a genuine safety feature on faster models, and part of what makes some scooters street-legal in certain regions.
What does this mean for riders?
The Gotrax Eclipse Ultra does not include turn signals. Among 242 comparable scooters, 67% include it — so it is less equipped than most here.
The Gotrax Eclipse Ultra does not include built-in turn signals. In a market where most mid-range scooters come equipped with at least basic signaling lights, this places the Eclipse Ultra below the category average for integrated safety features. Riders looking for factory-installed indicators will find it lacking compared to its peers.
Without turn signals, Eclipse Ultra users must rely on manual hand signals or aftermarket accessories to communicate turns to other road users. For daily commuters in busy urban environments, this can be less convenient and may slightly increase risk, especially during low-visibility conditions or in heavy traffic.
That said, riders who prefer a minimalist setup or who already use a separate signaling device may not view the absence of built-in turn lights as a deal breaker. If you primarily ride on quieter streets or are comfortable using hand signals, the lack of factory turn indicators might not significantly affect your experience.

Frequently Asked Questions — Gotrax Eclipse Ultra
Some models include integrated turn signals, but as of our ranking of 185 scooters, only top models like Ausom Gosoul 2 Pro Dual Motor, Vmax VX2 Pro LT, Ausom L2, Gotrax G7 Pro, and Ausom F1 Max feature built-in LED indicators. Most budget and mid-range scooters lack this safety feature, relying on hand signals instead.
If you ride in busy urban areas, low-light conditions, or under regulations requiring turn signals, choosing a scooter with built-in indicators boosts safety and legal compliance. While these models can cost 10–20% more and add about 1–2 kg, the clarity they provide at intersections often outweighs the extra weight and price. Evaluate your typical route, traffic density, and riding habits when deciding.
Maintaining your scooter’s turn signals involves regular checks of wiring, connectors, and LED modules. Clean the lenses with a soft cloth and mild detergent to ensure brightness. Inspect the thumb switch for debris and test the indicators monthly. If a bulb or LED fails, consult the manufacturer’s guide—most units allow easy replacement of modules. For waterproof models, verify seals to keep moisture out.
