Scooter是英語中表示交通工具的常用辭彙,可作名詞和動詞使用,發音為英[ˈskuːtə(r)]、美[ˈskuːtər],複數形式為scooters。其名詞含義包含滑板車、踏板車、小型機車等代步工具,以及雪地/冰面交通工具;動詞指騎行該類車輛的行為。該詞在玩具領域也被定義為"滑板車"。
該詞作為交通工具名稱最早出現於19世紀末,指代兒童用踏板車。20世紀初,隨著內燃機技術發展,Motor Scooter(帶發動機的踏板車)成為現代機車雛形。21世紀以來,電動技術進步催生出Electric Scooter(電動滑板車)、E-Scooter(電動機車)等新類型,衍生出Kick Scooter(腳蹬式滑板車)、Skate Scooter(四輪滑板車)等常見品類。
