Varla Eagle One Pro Review

The Eagle One Pro is an upgraded version of the company’s top-selling two-wheeler model, called the Eagle One. Varla Eagle One Pro Review.  While the design has pretty much stayed the same but The Eagle One Pro is more powerful, faster and features a larger battery pack.

Take what you knew concerning Varla’s Eagle One and toss it out the window. Varla’s new Varla Eagle One is out, and it is nothing like its predecessor. It’s not just about the 52% larger battery, even though it has something to do with it–more on that later.

The Eagle One Pro is Varla’s first beast scooter and it’s likely that we’ll see plenty of top-quality high-performance scooters this season. This is in the context of Segway’s GT Series and the brand new Apollo Pro.

Varla’s Eagle One Pro sits on the line as it’s a light weight scooter that borrows its specs from beast scooters. It surpasses the weight of the local lightweight weights Apollo Phantom, Vsett 10+ as well as the Kaabo Mantis Pro, which weighs 79lbs. It also has 11 inches of road tires that are typical of beast scooters like Storm and Wolf King GT. Storm as well as the Wolf King GT.

It’s a great scooter. Varla Eagle One Pro scooter is also amazing with a way above average top speed in dollars, exceptional performance per pound as well as excellent braking per dollar. It’s not even the greatest part. The off-road scooter costs about $640 less than the closest competing beasts, Segways GT1 and the Wolf Warrior 11. Varla Eagle One Pro Review.

Because of the big tires-something you’ve always wanted to hear-the scooter has great ground clearance at over 36 inches. They’re also great for traction but could be improved. The suspension is stiff and bouncy for city trails, but the stiffness can be useful when driving off-road. However, you may not be a fan of the short deck or its uncomfortable kickplate, especially off-road.

Acceleration

The Varla Eagle Pro’s acceleration does not match that of lighter heavyweight scooters, it is so much better. Varla Eagle One Pro Review. It’s tested with an acceleration of 2.1 seconds, which is close to the 15 millimeter mark. This is the performance typical of heavyweights from the past such as the Wolf Warrior 11 at 1.9 seconds, Dualtron Thunder at 2.0 seconds, along with the Dualtron Thunder II at 2.2 seconds. It is the Varla Eagle Pro’s sole competition in the light heavyweight class includes the Vsett 10+ with a 1.9 seconds of acceleration, accelerating to 15 mph.

It is worth noting that the Eagle One Pro uses the same throttle as the NAMI and Wolf King GT, which means it also has identical dead zones. It is possible to locate an angle to anchor your thumb to stabilize it and give it a reference point when engaging.

Top Speed

We are awestruck by this Varla Eagle Pro’s top speed, especially for the price. The scooter boasts a whopping forty mph top speed, which is well above normal when it is compared with other scooters in the same price range. The higher-priced Kaabo Mantis Pro only hits a 37 mph top speed, while the Inokim OXO, still at the higher cost, only reaches 36 mmh.

However it also faces competition from lower-priced models like those of Wolf Warrior X Pro which has a top speed at 43 mph, while the comparable Vsett 10+ reaches 43,5 mph.

In terms of weight in the weight class, the scooter stands in its weight class and is in a class of its own. It also compares with the original Dualtron Thunder.

Hill Climb

Its Varla Eagle Pro scooter is impressive for a lot of things including hill-climbing, which is certainly one of the best. This electric scooter will go up the hills without losing energy, and it doesn’t seem to let up with heavy riders or in low battery conditions. When we conducted our 60-meter hill test at a 10 percent gradient, the scooter was able to keep the speed of 17 mph (and more than) until approximately 10% of charge. Varla Eagle One Pro Review.

The company attributes the impressive hill-climbing ability to the strong twin motors, rated at 1000W each and a peak power of 2600 W. Varla claims that the motors produce 36 Nm or torque enough to push the scooter upwards up to 35deg.

Range

Nothing beats good mileage on a scooter and it’s true that the Varla Eagle Pro scooter gives a good distance of 58 kilometers in its tested range. Interestingly, the only scooter within $400 of its Eagle One Pro that can outdo it in the range is the Wolf Warrior X Pro, which has a range tested of 41 miles. It beat out other scooters with higher prices, e.g., the Kaabo Mantis Pro with a 33 miles of range. Dualtron Eagle Pro at 32 miles and Vsett 10+ with 33 miles.

Behind the range is a large capacity, 60V 24 Ah battery that has 1440 Wh of power. It is larger and has more energy-dense 21700 battery cells. It’s a leap from the predecessor, called the Eagle One, whose battery was valued at 946 wh and only came with 18650 lithium cell. Both batteries integrate smart battery management systems to preserve life. The process of charging the battery to its capacity can take between 8 and 9 hours, however you can purchase another charger, and cut down the charge times to around four to five hours.

Braking

Let’s face it; we wish all scooters had hydraulic brakes. This doesn’t mean that electric scooters with cable brakes aren’t dangerous or unreliable when they need to stop. Absolutely not. Actually the cable brakes and EABS on Varla Eagle Pro Varla Eagle Pro have a tested braking power that is truly impressive and easy to get right. Varla Eagle One Pro Review.

The electric scooter stops in 3 meters from a speed that is 15 mph. The performance is comparable with that of the Vsett 10+. In addition, the Varla Eagle Pro’s stopping power outdoes the Kaabo Wolf King, Kaabo Wolf Warrior X Pro, NAMI Burn-E and Nami BURN-E2.

It’s not as fun to squeeze the cable-actuated levers in the Varla Eagle Pro like you would with an electric scooter with hydraulic brakes, but the Pro’s disc brakes leave nothing in the dust when they perform.

The EABS prevents the brakes from locking. They are adjustable using the P-settings displayed on the display. You can set them from 0 to 2 which means 0 is an insufficient setting, while 2 is for a high setting.

Ride Quality

The ride quality is decent however, it’s not exceptional. The caveat they never talk about when talking about all-terrain e-scooters is that priority falls on off-roading features.

The pneumatic road tires with no tube are great for comfort, particularly when traveling offroad. The tubeless nature of these tires is ideal for evading pinch flats from rocks. However, if you’re getting the scooter to use primarily on urban tracks, it’s better to switch to self-sealing, knobby tires. They will automatically increase your traction, preserve your comfort, and decrease maintenance. Additionally, due to the tires and a 17 centimeter clearance from the ground obstacles on the track will not scrape the underdeck

The suspension feels hard. This Varla Eagle Pro could have benefited more from adjustable shocks or adapting an existing spring with lower spring rates. The stiff suspension works well when dealing with large bumps and prevents the scooter from falling off. When the tracks are well maintained the suspension is somewhat bouncy for the comfort.

The Eagle Pro also comes with an inbuilt steering damper. When driving at high speeds and straight tracks, users can enjoy a great stability. At top speed the stability does not equal the stability from dual-stem beasts like Wolf King GT. Wolf King GT but rather appears to be a Dualtron Thunder or Nami Burn with a damper for steering installed. The downside is that the damper on the steering also makes it so that drivers need to exert more force on the handlebars when making turns.

The deck is another point to be concerned about. It is too short, and with this shortage of deck real estate the riders are forced to rest their back feet on the footrest which is not ergonomically designed. The only bright side is that the Varla Eagle Pro can make up for its poor posture with an excellently laid-out and comfortable cockpit that is comfortable to use. It’s designed to provide comfort and ease of use. The controls are also ergonomically designed and compliment the well-readable, large 9 centimeter display.

Overall, with the heavy feeling of the steering and the athletic riding stance and the fast acceleration that the Eagle One Pro is exhilarating to ride but can also be a bit of workout when you’re racing hard.
