What size car you need depends on a number of things:
1) Size of your party - how many adults/children and their ages
2) What size scooter you want to stow - how heavy is the person who will be using it?
3) How much you want to dismantle and re assemble the scooter each time

There are a number of hire companies that will deliver to you but if you are staying on Disney Property then the number is more restricted.

Have you thought about taking a scooter with you? If you use one in the UK most airlines will usually transport them for free. Can make a big saving on your holiday budget.

Hope this helps - if you give us a bit more info we can help further.

As far as I am aware you should be able to do so - as with any mobility scooter you will need to check with the Airlines Special Assistance team first. They will want the full details of make, model, weight, and type of batteries to book this on the plane and make their teams aware. They may want you to detach the battery and take it in the cabin with you. I have always found the Special Assistance teams really helpful.

Here's a link to the IATA regulations

Hope this helps.
