Varla Eagle One Pro Seat
The Eagle One Pro is an upgraded version of the best-selling two-wheeler, the Eagle One. Varla Eagle One Pro Seat. The model has largely stayed the same, The Eagle One Pro is more robust, quicker, and has a larger battery pack.
Take what you knew concerning Varla’s Eagle One and toss it out the window. It’s the Varla Eagle One Pro is out and it’s nothing like its predecessor. It’s not just about the 52% larger battery, even though it has some connection to it. More on that later.
The Eagle One Pro is Varla’s first beast scooter and it’s likely that we’ll see a lot of top-quality high-performance scooters this year. This is in the context of Segway’s GT Series and the brand new Apollo Pro.
Varla’s Eagle One Pro sits on the fence as it’s a light weight scooter with specs borrowed from beast scooters. It is heavier than the local light weights Apollo Phantom, Vsett 10+ along with the Kaabo Mantis Pro, which weighs 79lbs. Additionally, it also has 11 inches of road tires that are typical of beast scooters like the Storm and Wolf King GT.
The Varla Eagle One Pro scooter is also amazing with a way above trend top speed in dollars, exceptional performance per pound as well as excellent brakes per dollar. That’s not even the best aspect. The off-road scooter is priced at about $640 less than the most comparable beasts, Segways GT1 and the Wolf Warrior 11. Varla Eagle One Pro Seat.
Thanks to the large tires-something you always want to hear about-the scooter offers a great ground clearance, with a total of 36 inches. They are also great for traction but could be better. The suspension feels stiff and bouncy for city trails. However, the stiffness can be useful when driving off-road. But you might not like the narrow deck or uncomfortably shaped kickplate, particularly off-road.

Acceleration
It is the Varla Eagle Pro’s acceleration is not typical of lightweight heavyweight scooters. It is far superior. Varla Eagle One Pro Seat. It has a tested acceleration rate of 2.1 seconds up to 15 mmh mark. This is the performance typical of heavyweights from the past such as that of the Wolf Warrior 11 at 1.9 seconds, Dualtron Thunder at 2.0 seconds, as well as Dualtron Thunder II at 2.2 seconds. Dualtron Thunder II at 2.2 seconds. It is the Varla Eagle Pro’s only rival in the light-heavyweight category includes that of the Vsett 10+ with a 1.9 seconds acceleration from 15 to mph.
It is worth noting that the Eagle One Pro uses the same throttle as the NAMI and Wolf King GT, which means that it also shares the same dead zone. You might want to find an angle to secure your thumb in order to ensure stability and provide it a reference point when engaged.
Top Speed
We are awestruck by our love for the Varla Eagle Pro’s top speed, especially for its price. The scooter manages a whopping 40 mph top speed, which is a lot higher than average when contrasted with other scooters in the same price range. The higher-priced Kaabo Mantis Pro only hits 37 mph top speed, while the Inokim OXO, still at a higher price has a lower speed of 36 millimeters.
However, it also faces competition from lower-priced models, such as that of the Wolf Warrior X Pro which achieves a top speed at 43 mph and the comparable Vsett 10+ reaches 43,5 mph.
In terms of weight, the scooter is in a league of its own. It also compares with the original Dualtron Thunder.
Hill Climb
The Varla Eagle Pro scooter is amazing for a variety of things including hill-climbing, which is certainly one of the best. This electric scooter can go up steep hills without losing any power, and isn’t slowing down on heavy riders or low battery conditions. In our 60-meter hill test with a 10 percent slope and a 10% gradient, the scooter was able to maintain a speed of around 17 mph (and over) till about 10% charge. Varla Eagle One Pro Seat.
The company credits the superb climb to the sturdy twin motors, rated at 1000W each with a maximum power of 2600 W. Varla claims that the motors generate the equivalent of 36 Nm of torque, enough to push the scooter upwards up to 35deg.
Range
Nothing beats good mileage on an electric scooter, and the Varla Eagle Pro electric scooter offers a decent 58 km of range tested. Interestingly, the only scooter less than $400 from its Eagle One Pro that can surpass it in terms of range is the Wolf Warrior X Pro, with a test range of 41 miles. It outran other scooters with higher prices, e.g., the Kaabo Mantis Pro with a 33 mile distance, Dualtron Eagle Pro at 32 miles and Vsett 10+ with 33 miles.
The battery behind the range is a high capacity 60V 24 Ah battery with 1440 Wh of energy. It is larger and more efficient with 21700 cells in the battery. This is a step up from the predecessor, called the Eagle One, whose battery was classified at 946 wh, and had only 18650 lithium cells. Both batteries have smart battery management systems to ensure that the battery’s life is not compromised. Charge the battery up to capacity takes between 8 and 9 hours but you can secure a second charger and reduce charging time to 4-5 hours.
Braking
Let’s face it, we would prefer that all scooters came with hydraulic brakes. That’s not to say that electric scooters with cable brakes are unsafe or insecure when it comes to stopping. Absolutely not. In fact, the cable brakes plus EABS in the Varla Eagle Pro offer tested braking force that is truly remarkable and simple to set up. Varla Eagle One Pro Seat.
The electric scooter stops in 3 meters from a speed of 15 mph. This is in line with that of Vsett 10+. Vsett 10+. Again, the Varla Eagle Pro’s stopping power is superior to those of the Kaabo Wolf King, Kaabo Wolf Warrior X Pro, NAMI Burn-E, and Nami BURN-E2.
It’s not as fun to squeeze the levers that are powered by cables in the Varla Eagle Pro the way you would do on an electric scooter that has hydraulic brakes however, the Pro’s mechanical disc brakes leave nothing to be desired when they perform.
The EABS will stop that the brakes aren’t locking up. They are adjustable via the P-settings on the display. You can set them between 0 and 2, with 0 being a weak setting, and 2 refers to a strong setting.
Ride Quality
Ride quality can be described as good however it’s not the best. One thing they do not discuss when promoting all-terrain e-scooters is that priority falls on the off-roading aspects.
The pneumatic road tires with no tube are great for comfort, especially when traveling offroad. Their tubeless design is perfect for evading pinch flats from rocks. However, if you’re getting the scooter to use primarily on urban tracks, you’re better off changing to self-sealing knobby tires. These would automatically double your traction, preserve your comfort, and reduce maintenance. Also, thanks to the tires and the 17 centimeter clearance on the ground obstructions on the track will not scratch the deck beneath.
The suspension is rigid. The Varla Eagle Pro would have been better off with adjustable shocks or adapting the spring to lower spring rates. However, the stiff setup is effective when dealing with large bumps and prevents the scooter from bottoming out. When the tracks are well maintained the suspension can feel a little too bouncy for ease of use.
It is also equipped with a steering damper. Eagle Pro also comes with a built-in steering damper. In high-speed as well as straight track, users can enjoy a great stability. At top speed the stability isn’t as good as that from dual-stem beasts like those on the Wolf King GT but rather is more like a Dualtron Thunder or Nami Burn equipped with a steering damper. However, the damper for steering also implies that the riders need to exert more force on the handlebars when trying to negotiate turns.
The deck is another cause to be concerned about. It’s too narrow and due to this lack of deck space, riders are constantly forced to rest their back feet on the footrest, which is not ergonomically designed. One bright spot is the Varla Eagle Pro makes up for a poor stance with a well-laid-out cockpit that is comfortable on your hands. It was designed to be comfortable and user-friendliness. Its controls can be also ergonomically designed to complement the well-readable, large 9 centimeter display.
Overall, between the heavy feeling of the steering as well as the sporty riding posture, and the intense acceleration The Eagle One Pro is exhilarating to ride, but it could also be quite a workout when you’re on the road for a long time.
