A scooter (1; 1') of the foldable scooter type, comprising a frame (2; 2') and a steering column equipped with a front wheel and pivotally mounted on said frame (2; 2') about a steering axis, the frame (2; 2') comprising, on the one hand, a first portion (21; 21') supporting a rear wheel rotating about a transverse axis and a footboard (20; 20') and, on the other hand, a second portion (22; 22') pivotally supporting the steering column, wherein the scooter (1; 1') has a midplane orthogonal to the transverse axis and delimiting a first lateral side and a second lateral side opposite to one another, said midplane including a longitudinal axis passing through the front wheel and through the rear wheel and parallel to a direction of advance of the scooter (1; 1') when the latter progresses in a straight line, and the rear wheel has a first lateral face on said first lateral side and a second lateral face, opposite to the first lateral face, on said second lateral side, and wherein the first portion (21; 21') and the second portion (22; 22') of the frame (2; 2') are linked to one another by a swivel joint (7; 7') about a folding axis (AP; AP') enabling relative movability thereof between: - an unfolded configuration wherein the steering column projects upwards with respect to the footboard (20; 20') for use during a displacement, said steering column extending in the midplane; and - a folded configuration wherein the steering column is folded down along the footboard (20; 20'); wherein the swivel joint (7; 7') is arranged for movability of the steering column from the unfolded configuration into the folded configuration wherein the steering column is folded down on the first lateral side with respect to the midplane and extends at distance from said midplane, at least partially beneath the footboard (20; 20'), along a first lateral flange (201; 201') of the footboard (20; 20') located on said first lateral side and facing the first lateral face of the rear wheel; said scooter being characterized in that the folding axis (AP; AP') is offset on the first lateral side with respect to the midplane and it extends in an inclined manner with respect to the longitudinal axis with an angle of inclination (IP; IP') comprised between 20 and 60 degrees, in particular between 30 and 50 degrees. and wherein the first portion (21; 21') and the second portion (22; 22') of the frame (2; 2') are linked to one another by a swivel joint (7; 7') about a folding axis (AP; AP') enabling relative movability thereof between: - an unfolded configuration wherein the steering column projects upwards with respect to the footboard (20; 20') for use during a displacement, said steering column extending in the midplane; and - a folded configuration wherein the steering column is folded down along the footboard (20; 20'); - an unfolded configuration wherein the steering column projects upwards with respect to the footboard (20; 20') for use during a displacement, said steering column extending in the midplane; and - a folded configuration wherein the steering column is folded down along the footboard (20; 20'); wherein the swivel joint (7; 7') is arranged for movability of the steering column from the unfolded configuration into the folded configuration wherein the steering column is folded down on the first lateral side with respect to the midplane and extends at distance from said midplane, at least partially beneath the footboard (20; 20'), along a first lateral flange (201; 201') of the footboard (20; 20') located on said first lateral side and facing the first lateral face of the rear wheel; said scooter being characterized in that the folding axis (AP; AP') is offset on the first lateral side with respect to the midplane and it extends in an inclined manner with respect to the longitudinal axis with an angle of inclination (IP; IP') comprised between 20 and 60 degrees, in particular between 30 and 50 degrees.
