Varla Eagle One Pro Dual Motor Electric Scooter
The Eagle One Pro is an upgraded version of the top-selling two-wheeler model, called the Eagle One. Varla Eagle One Pro Dual Motor Electric Scooter. Although the style has remained the same however, the Eagle One Pro is more efficient, more powerful and comes with a bigger battery.
You know what you learned regarding Varla’s Eagle One and toss it out the window. The Varla Eagle One is out and it’s nothing like the one it replaced. It’s not only about the 52% bigger battery, even though it has some significance–more on that to come.
The Eagle One Pro is Varla’s first monster scooter and it’s likely that we’ll see a lot of flagship high-performance scooters this year. This is a the context of Segway’s GT Series and the brand new Apollo Pro.
Varla’s Eagle One Pro sits on the fence as an extremely light-weight scooter that borrows its specs from beast scooters. It’s heavier than resident light weights Apollo Phantom, Vsett 10+, and Kaabo Mantis Pro, which weighs 79 lbs. It also features 11 inches road tires, typical of beast scooters like Wolf King GT and the Storm or Wolf King GT.
It’s a great scooter. Varla Eagle One Pro scooter is also impressive with a well above average top speed in dollars, exceptional distance per pound and excellent brakes per dollar. This isn’t even the most impressive part. This off-road scooter is priced at about $640 less than the closest competing beasts, Segways GT1 and the Wolf Warrior 11.

Because of the big tires-something you always want to hear-the scooter is able to stand on the ground with a good clearance, with a total of 36 inches. They are also great for traction but could be better. The suspension is firm and bouncy on urban trails, but the stiffness comes in handy when riding off-road. You might not like the narrow deck or uncomfortable kickplate, especially off-road.

Acceleration
Varla Eagle Pro Varla Eagle Pro’s acceleration is not typical of lightweight heavyweight scooters. It is far superior. Varla Eagle One Pro Dual Motor Electric Scooter. It’s tested with an acceleration rate of 2.1 seconds, which is close to the 15 millimeter mark. This is the performance you would expect from heavyweights with a long history such as that of the Wolf Warrior 11 at 1.9 seconds, Dualtron Thunder at 2.0 seconds, and the Dualtron Thunder II at 2.2 seconds. It is the Varla Eagle Pro’s sole competition in the light heavyweight class will be the Vsett 10+ with a 1.9 seconds of acceleration, accelerating to 15 mph.
The Eagle One Pro uses the same throttle as the NAMI and Wolf King GT, which implies that it also has similar dead zones. You may want to consider finding an angle to secure your thumb in order to keep it in place and provide it a reference point when engaged.
Top Speed
We love our love for the Varla Eagle Pro’s top speed, especially for its price tag. The scooter boasts a whopping 40 mph top speed, which is much higher than the average when compared to others that are in the same price bracket. The more expensive Kaabo Mantis Pro only hits a 37 mph top speed, while the Inokim OXO, still at the higher cost has a lower speed of 36 millimeters.
However it also is competing with lower models like that of the Wolf Warrior X Pro which has a top speed of 43 mph as opposed to the comparable Vsett 10+ reaches 43,5 mph.
In its weight class, the scooter can be found in a class of its own. It also can be compared to its predecessor, the Dualtron Thunder.
Hill Climb
The Varla Eagle Pro scooter is remarkable for many things including hill-climbing, which is certainly one of the best. This electric scooter can go up the hills without losing power, and it does not seem to slow down when there are heavy riders or low battery situations. During our 60 m hill test with a 10 percent gradient and a 10% gradient, the scooter could maintain the speed that was around 17 mph (and more than) up to around 10% charge. Varla Eagle One Pro Dual Motor Electric Scooter.
The company attributes the impressive hill-climbing ability to the strong dual motors rated at 1000W each, with a peak power of 2600W. Varla claims that the motors deliver the equivalent of 36 Nm of torque, enough to propel the scooter up gradients of up to 35deg.
Range
Nothing beats the good miles on an electric scooter and this Varla Eagle One Pro scooter offers a decent 58 km of range tested. Interestingly, the only scooter less than $400 from the Eagle One Pro that can beat it on the scale is the Wolf Warrior X Pro, with a test range that was 41 miles. It beat other scooters that cost more, e.g., the Kaabo Mantis Pro with a 33 mile range, Dualtron Eagle Pro at 32 miles, and Vsett 10+ with 33 miles.
Behind the range is a high capacity 60V 24 Ah battery that has 1440 Wh of power. It’s larger and more efficient with 21700 battery cells. This is an improvement from the predecessor, called it was the Eagle One, whose battery was valued at 946 wh and only came with 18650 lithium cells. Both batteries have smart battery management systems to preserve life. The process of charging the battery to its capacity takes 8-9 hrs, but you can secure another charger, and cut down the charging time to 4 to 5 hours.
Braking
Let’s face it; we wish all scooters had hydraulic brakes. However, that doesn’t mean electric scooters with cable brakes are unsafe or insecure when it comes to stopping. Absolutely not. Actually the cable brakes as well as EABS of Varla Eagle Pro Varla Eagle Pro have a proven braking power that is truly impressive and easy to get right. Varla Eagle One Pro Dual Motor Electric Scooter.
The e-scooter can stop in only 3 meters from a speed of 15 mph. This performance is in line with Vsett 10+. Vsett 10-plus. The Varla Eagle’s stopping strength is better than the Kaabo Wolf King, Kaabo Wolf Warrior X Pro, NAMI Burn-E, as well as Nami BURN-E2.
It’s possible that you don’t like squeezing the cable-actuated levers in the Varla Eagle Pro as you would on an electric scooter with hydraulic brakes, however, the Pro’s mechanical disc brakes don’t leave much to be desired when it comes to performance.
The EABS stops the brakes from locking up. They are adjustable via the P-settings that are displayed on the display. They can be adjusted in between zero and two with 0 being a weak setting, and 2 refers to a strong setting.
Ride Quality
Ride quality can be described as decent however, it’s not exceptional. One thing they do not talk about when advertising all-terrain electric scooters is that they are primarily focused on the off-roading measures.
The tubeless pneumatic road tires are excellent for comfort, particularly when traveling offroad. Their tubeless nature is great for avoiding pinch flats that are caused by rocks. However, if you’re getting the scooter for use mostly on roads, then you’re better off changing to self-sealing knobby tires. These would automatically double your traction, preserve your comfort and cut down on maintenance. Additionally, due to the tires and a 17 centimeter ground clearance, obstacles in the track will not cause damage to the deck beneath.
The suspension is hard. The Varla Eagle Pro would have benefited more from adjustable shocks or an existing spring with a lower spring rate. But the rigid setup works well when taking on large bumps, and keeps the scooter from bottoming out. When the tracks are well maintained the suspension is a little too bouncy for comfort.
It is also equipped with a steering damper. Eagle Pro also comes with an inbuilt steering damper. In high-speed as well as straight track, users will enjoy excellent stability. At top speed, the stability isn’t as good as that of dual stem beasts like those on the Wolf King GT but rather is more like the Dualtron Thunder or Nami Burn with a steering damper installed. The downside is that the damper on the steering also implies that the riders have to push harder on the handlebars when negotiating turns.
The deck is another cause of concern. It’s too small and, due to the lack of deck real estate, riders are constantly forced to place the back foot on the footrest, which isn’t ergonomically designed. The only bright side is that the Varla Eagle Pro makes up for the sloppy stance by providing a well-laid-out cockpit that is easy to use. It was designed to be comfortable and convenience. Controls are also ergonomically designed to complement the large, well-lit 9 centimeter display.
Overall, between the hefty steering feel as well as the sporty riding posture and the fast acceleration, the Eagle One Pro is exhilarating to ride but can also be a bit of workout when you’re racing hard.
