Respectively a rider of the autonomous scooter may select a manual drive mode to drive without any assistance, or the rider may control the autonomous scooter remotely by a smartphone when riding or not aboard via a smartphone APP whereby the rider may engage a user interface system providing virtual driving control settings linked with an autonomous drive system to control the autonomous scooter, or the rider can manually control the autonomous scooter. Primarily elements of the autonomous scooter may comprise a platform defined by a front end and a rear end, a deck section to place the rider's feet thereon, and having a base supporting a steering column. Accordingly the steering column is rotatably connected by a motorized wheel adapter configured to turn a suspension fork arrangement containing at least one motorized wheel thus steering and balance control of the autonomous scooter, or the steering column is connected to a truck arrangement containing two motorized wheels, whereby the two motorized wheels provide balance and differential propulsion for steering the autonomous scooter. The motorized wheel adapter and the motorized wheels are systematically controlled by an autonomous drive system adapted to control the autonomous scooter during autonomous drive mode setting.
