Can a Segway go up or down stairs?
Yes and no. Yes, if you’re not riding the Segway, it can easily be walked up or down stairs or curbs under power and only requires a small amount of lift from you. When on the Segway, no, it cannot go up stairs (although Segway’s technology is being used in their IBOT Mobility System that can go up stairs). Although a Segway can easily hop off of a curb or go down a stair or two when you’re on it, it’s not recommended, not because it will do the Segway damage, but because it creates unnecessary risk.
