honestly mate the xiaomi mi pro 2 with an aftermarket seat works a treat, got one for my dad who has similar issues and he loves it for getting about town without the knee strain
xiaomi mi electric scooter pro 2 might be good option for your needs. weighs around 14kg which is manageable for carrying and folds nicely, plus build quality is pretty solid from what i've experiencedi had similar situation with parking downtown and been using one for almost year now - handles short commutes really well and haven't had reliability issues. price should be under your budget too
You're right 10" scooters are bigger but wheel size is only a small part of it. I have a little xiaomi pro2 14kg and I've put 10" tyre on for comfort . I cringe when I see tiny 7-8" scooter wheels ! The xaomi current replacemants are 20 -23kg , the way of the scooter world .
I would say for that budget you should look into a 2nd hand xiaomi on your local marketplace. Get one with low milage. Maybe a xiaomi mi pro 2. Other brands at this price are badly built and we see all the time topics with broken steering stems from no-name cheap scooters, and that’s dangerous.
