Varla Eagle1
The Eagle One Pro is an upgraded version of the best-selling two-wheeler, called the Eagle One. Varla Eagle1. While the design has pretty much stayed the same however, The Eagle One Pro is more robust, quicker, and has a larger battery.
Take what you knew concerning Varla’s Eagle One and toss it out the window. Varla’s new Varla Eagle One Pro comes here and isn’t like its predecessor. It’s not just about the 52% bigger battery, even though it has some significance–more on that later.
The Eagle One Pro is Varla’s first monster scooter, and it seems there will be a lot of flagship high-performance scooters this year. This is a an allusion to 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 with borrowed specs of beast-scooters. It is heavier than the local light weights Apollo Phantom, Vsett 10+ as well as the Kaabo Mantis Pro, which weighs 79lbs. And, it also has 11 inches of road tires, typical of beast scooters such as Wolf King GT and the Storm or Wolf King GT.
It’s a great scooter. Varla Eagle One Pro scooter is also amazing with a way above trend top speed for a dollar. It also has an exceptional distance per pound and great brakes per dollar. It’s not even the greatest aspect. This off-road scooter is about $640 cheaper than the closest competing beasts, Segways GT1 and the Wolf Warrior 11. Varla Eagle1.
Because of the big tires-something you’ve always wanted to hear about-the scooter is able to stand on the ground with a good clearance of more than 36 inches. They’re also excellent for traction, but could be better. The suspension feels stiff and bouncy when riding urban trails, but the stiffness comes in handy when traveling off-road. But you might not like the shorter deck or the uncomfortable kickplate, especially when riding off-road.

Acceleration
It is the Varla Eagle Pro’s speed does not match that of lighter heavyweight scooters, it is far superior. Varla Eagle1. It’s tested with an acceleration rate of 2.1 seconds up to 15 mmh mark. This is the performance expected of veteran heavyweight scooters like those of Wolf Warrior 11 at 1.9 seconds, Dualtron Thunder at 2.0 seconds and Dualtron Thunder II at 2.2 seconds. Dualtron Thunder II at 2.2 seconds. The Varla Eagle Pro’s only competition in the light heavyweight class is the Vsett 10+ with a 1.9 seconds of acceleration up between 15 and 15 mph.
The Eagle One Pro uses the same throttle as the NAMI and Wolf King GT, which means that it also has similar dead zones. You might want to find an angle to secure your thumb in order to stabilize it and give it an ideal reference location when engaged.
Top Speed
We are awestruck by our love for the Varla Eagle Pro’s top speed, especially for its price tag. The scooter has a staggering 40 mph top speed, which is a lot higher than average when compared to others in the same price range. The higher-priced Kaabo Mantis Pro only hits a 37 mph top speed, while the Inokim OXO, still at an expensive price has a lower speed of 36 millimeters.
However, it also is competing with lower models like that of the Wolf Warrior X Pro which achieves an top speed that is 43 mph, while the similarly priced Vsett 10+ reaches 43,5 mph.
In its weight class it is a scooter is in a league of its own and only can be compared to that of the first Dualtron Thunder.
Hill Climb
The Varla Eagle Pro electric scooter is impressive for a lot of things including hill-climbing, which is certainly one of them. This electric scooter can go up hills without losing too much energy, and it does not seem to slow down when there are heavy riders or poor battery levels. During our 60 m hill climb at 10% gradient, the scooter was able to maintain a speed that was around 17 mph (and over) till around 10% charge. Varla Eagle1.
The company credits the superb climb to the sturdy dual motors rated at 1000W each, with a peak power of 2600 W. Varla claims that the motors produce an impressive 36 Nm in torque. This is sufficient to push the scooter up gradients of up to 35deg.
Range
Nothing beats good mileage on an electric scooter, and the Varla Eagle One Pro scooter gives a good distance of 58 kilometers in its tested range. The only scooter less than $400 from its Eagle One Pro that can beat it on the range is the Wolf Warrior X Pro, with a test range that was 41 miles. It outran other scooters with higher prices, e.g., the Kaabo Mantis Pro with a 33 miles distance, Dualtron Eagle Pro at 32 miles, as well as the Vsett 10+ with 33 miles.
The battery behind the range is a large capacity battery of 60V 24 Ah that has 1440 Wh of power. It’s bigger and more energy-dense with 21700 battery cells. It’s a leap from the predecessor, called it was the Eagle One, whose battery was classified at 946 wh, and came with only 18650 lithium cell. Both batteries have intelligent battery management systems that keep the battery in good condition. The process of charging the battery to its capacity can take between 8 and 9 hours, however, you can get an additional charger to reduce charging time to 4-5 hours.
Braking
Let’s face it, we wish all scooters had hydraulic brakes. That’s not to say that electric scooters equipped with cable brakes aren’t dangerous or undependable when it comes to stopping. Absolutely not. Actually the cable brakes as well as EABS of the Varla Eagle Pro have a tested braking power that is truly exceptional and simple to set up. Varla Eagle1.
The electric scooter stops in 3 meters from an approximate speed at 15 mph. This performance is in line with Vsett 10+. Vsett 10-plus. Again, the Varla Eagle Pro’s stopping strength is better than those of the Kaabo Wolf King, Kaabo Wolf Warrior X Pro, NAMI Burn-E and Nami BURN-E2.
You may not enjoy squeezing the levers that are powered by cables that are on the Varla Eagle Pro as you would on an electric scooter that has hydraulic brakes but the Pro’s mechanical disc brakes don’t leave much in the dust when they perform.
The EABS stops your brakes from locking up. They are adjustable via the P-settings displayed on the display. You can set them between 0 and 2, which means 0 is the weak setting and 2 is for a high setting.
Ride Quality
The ride quality is acceptable however, it’s not exceptional. The only thing they don’t mention when talking about all-terrain e-scooters is that priority falls on the off-roading measures.
The tubeless pneumatic road tires are excellent for comfort, particularly when riding offroad. Their tubeless nature is great for avoiding pinch flats that are caused by rocks. But, if you’re using the scooter for use mostly on urban tracks, it’s better to switch to self-sealing, knobby tires. These will instantly increase your traction, retain your comfort, and decrease maintenance. Also, thanks to the tires and the 17 centimeter ground clearance, obstacles on the track will not cause damage to the deck beneath.
The suspension system feels stiff. It’s a bit stiff. Varla Eagle Pro would benefit more from adjustable shocks, or by adjusting the spring to less spring force. However, the stiff setup is efficient when handling large bumps and stops the scooter from falling off. If the track is well maintained the suspension is a little too bouncy for the comfort.
The Eagle Pro also comes with a built-in steering damper. In high-speed and straight tracks, riders can enjoy a great stability. At top speed the stability does not equal that offered by dual stem monsters like Wolf King GT. Wolf King GT but rather is more like the Dualtron Thunder or Nami Burn with a damper for steering installed. On the downside, the steering damper also means that riders will need to exert more force on the handlebars when trying to negotiate turns.
The deck is another cause of concern. It is too short and, due to the lack of usable deck real estate it is a constant struggle for riders to rest their back feet on the footrest which is not ergonomically designed. The bright side is that the Varla Eagle Pro makes up for the sloppy stance by providing an excellently laid-out and comfortable cockpit that is comfortable on your hands. It’s designed to provide comfort and ease of use. The controls are also ergonomically designed and compliment the large, well-lit 9 centimeter screen.
Overall, between the hefty 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 workout when you’re riding hard.
