Electric skateboard price: paying in instalments is becoming widespread

Pay in instalments, without a second thought

The key points

A high-end electric skateboard usually costs between €2,000 and €3,500: it is not an impulse buy. For this kind of product, paying in 3, 4, 10 or 12 instalments is becoming the norm, as it is for household appliances or high-end e-bikes. At Sternboard, it is offered with Sternboard, directly on the product page.

How much an electric skateboard really costs

How much does an electric skateboard cost? It all depends on the segment. An entry-level urban model can be found for under €800, with limited range and robustness. In high-end all-terrain, a Stern' costs from €1,990 to €3,390 depending on the motor and battery. The gap reflects real differences: IP67 waterproofing, in-wheel motor, backpack or integrated battery, 2-year guarantee, assembly in France.

What this price actually pays for

The price of a Stern' covers the brushless motor built into the rear wheel, the battery (integrated or backpack), IP67 waterproofing and a 2-year legal guarantee of conformity on the whole product. Details of the 8 configurations are on The Stern' page.

Why instalments make sense here

A Stern' costs from €1,990 to €3,390: a considered purchase, comparable to a high-end e-bike. Paying in instalments does not change the total price: it spreads the cost over time. At Sternboard, you pay in 10 or 12 interest-free instalments, offered on every product page before you confirm your order.

Price comparison: what to look at beyond the figure

An honest price comparison between two electric skateboards takes into account the guarantee, the cost of a spare part, and the availability of after-sales service. A model that is cheaper to buy can cost more over two years if the battery cannot be replaced separately or if parts are no longer available. See the Repairability and removable battery page on this specific topic.
