SPLACH Titan Overview:
Powerful, smooth, and formidable across any terrain, this is a model for those seeking a serious thrill on a budget.
Dual 52V 1000W motors. A 37 mph top speed. Exceptional suspension. A large battery. Terrain agnostic tires. An IP54 water-resistance rating. The Titan is brimming with features tailor-made for adventure and exploration.
Ultimately, then, it belongs to an elite group of scooters that have revolutionized the market; it’s a model that brings the IT factor in spades; a model that has redefined what customers can expect from a sub-$1,500 budget.
The Good:
- Outstanding value for money
- Chart-topping performance in its price class and beyond
- Supremely smooth suspension
- Handles all types of terrain
- Fat tires with terrain-agnostic tread
- One of the best lighting packages in the industry
- Excellent for long-range rides
- Superb folding mechanism
- Sharp and responsive brakes

- IP54 water-resistance rating
The Bad:
- Deck is a little short
- Higher load capacity would make it more accessible to heavy riders
Why I Recommend the SPLACH Titan:
Where else to start but with the formidable dual 52V 1000W motors? These rockets unleash a peak power output of 2600W and a ferocious top speed of 37 mph – placing it well ahead of its competition in the sub-$1,500 category.
It wastes no time in moving through the gears, either. An acceleration rate of 0-15 mph in 2.5 seconds rivals the more expensive Apollo Ghost – and it gets faster once it hits its stride too, reaching 25 mph in 4.9 seconds.
Suffice to say that all of this power translates into some serious hill-eating chops – the Titan handles steep inclines with relative ease.
This is made all the easier by its large 52V 20.8Ah battery, which has a maximum range of 44 miles, or 29 miles under real-world conditions. Once again, this places it ahead of every other similarly priced model.
Aside from its superb pound-for-pound performance stats, the other joker in this scooter’s pack is its all-terrain credentials. The front and rear suspension works in tandem with a pair of 10-inch pneumatic tires to smooth out shocks and vibrations with aplomb – whether you’re on a road, dirt track, forest trail, or mountain path.
The tires are particularly fascinating. They combine extra thickness with a knobby tread to maximize traction. This is particularly useful on looser terrain, while they also do a fine job traversing urban environments.
Elsewhere, at 27 inches, the handlebars are among the widest that I’ve tested. This enhances your sense of balance and control at speed, with the rock-solid stem and ergonomic handgrips also playing a significant role.
Along the handlebars, you’ll find a finger throttle that gives you access to 12 riding modes. These allow you to cap your speed – as do the eco/turbo and single/dual motor button controls. The display, meanwhile, is simple, bright, and anti-glare.
If you’re considering the SPLACH Titan, then I’d wager a strong chance that you plan to explore the great outdoors. But, as any hiker or hunter will know, things can change quickly out in the sticks. The heavens may suddenly open, for example – but fear not if that’s the case, because an IP54 water-resistance rating offers ample protection against dirt, dust, and water ingress.
There’s little chance of you careening into a tree either, thanks to the Titan’s front and rear disc brakes. Together, they’ll bring you to a sharp stop from 15 mph in a hugely impressive 2.4 meters. It also comes with an electronic braking system, but I'd suggest reducing its strength as it is exceptionally responsive.
Being an off-road virtuoso, you’d be forgiven for imagining that the Titan is something of an unwieldy beast with little going for it in the portability department. Many all-terrain scooters are built like tanks, after all.
Well, while its 64 lbs weight isn’t exactly light, its excellent folding mechanism does mean it can easily be collapsed, carried for short bursts, and stored in the trunk of your car or truck.
You won’t need to worry about getting caught out by the setting sun, either. That’s because it comes equipped with one of the best lighting rigs that I’ve ever tested. Its headlight could be mistaken for a star, while the rear taillights are visible and responsive. It also features LEDS on the deck and stem, which can be customized via a mobile app. SPLACH has played a (literal) blinder with this setup.
But then you could say this about the Titan in general. This is a serious performance scooter available at an entry-level price. Speedy, durable, and joyous to ride, it’ll leave you feeling like you’ve just committed daylight robbery.

Varla Eagle One V2 Overview:
The Varla Eagle One V2 has swooped in on the entry-level performance market and torn chunks out of the status quo with its fearsome talons. Powerful, versatile, and brimming with features, selecting it as the best 35 mph scooter under $1,750 feels like a no-brainer.
One look at its spec sheet is all you need to know. Taking the basic blueprint laid out by the original Eagle One, the V2 augments the same 52V 1000W motors with a 14% larger battery, improved Sine Wave controllers, a new thumb throttle, a redesigned frame, and tougher tires; the end product is a model that’s bigger and better than its predecessor in every way.
Few scooters in its price category can go toe-to-toe. The Eagle One V2 is an all-around powerhouse that leaves the competition cowering in the shadow of its indomitable wingspan.
The Good:
- Top contender in its price class
- Packed full of features
- Extremely well-rounded performance
- Great value for money
- Powerful, yet tameable
- All-terrain powerhouse
- Plush suspension that’s primed for differing terrain
- Handling, control, and maneuverability are all assured
- Throttle response is super smooth thanks to the Sine Wave controllers
- Rock-solid stem thanks to super secure folding mechanism
- Suitable for tall and heavy riders
- Large, bright, and easy-to-read display
- NFC card reader for enhanced security
- Lights are sufficient for night rides
- Sharp and responsive dual hydraulic brakes
- IP54 water resistance rating
The Bad:
- The deck is short, but the well-designed kickplate adds an extra 5.1 inches of space
- The grip tape quickly becomes dirty and is hard to clean
Why I Recommend the Varla Eagle One V2:
It’s not often that you’ll find an affordable performance scooter that has a 40 mph top speed in its locker – it’s even rarer to find one that lacks any real weaknesses across the board. But the Varla Eagle One V2 is just that.
Not only are its motors capable of searing speed – a monumental peak power output of 3200W also makes it a certified destroyer of steep hills.
The addition of the new 25A Sine Wave controllers and upgraded thumb throttle, meanwhile, have raised the stakes when it comes to acceleration; a rate of 0-15 mph in 2.3 seconds and 0-25 mph in 5.8 seconds sees the Eagle One V2 outpace its predecessor, with only the Mantis V2 quicker in getting to 15 mph among similarly priced models.
Factor in a new 52V 20.8Ah battery that packs 135.2Wh more energy than the one found on the original (1081.6wH vs 946.4Wh) – equating to a longer maximum range of 42 miles (or 24.37 miles based on my strenuous hands-on tests) – and you have a scooter that you can rely on for weekend adventures.
Needless to say, a model as fast as the Eagle One V2 needs to be fitted with impressive brakes. Yet ‘impressive’ doesn’t quite do those found here justice. While testing its braking performance, the dual hydraulic calipers clamped down on the heat-dissipating 160 mm rotors to bring me to a shuddering stop from 15 mph in an exceptional 2.0 meters.
There’s no let-up when it comes to ride quality, either. Here, several cogs are whirring in harmony.
First, we have the 28-inch wide handlebars and ergonomic cockpit; together, they maximize control and handling. Secondly, there’s the redesigned frame. Boasting a rake angle of 9 degrees it heightens your stability whilst remaining nimble. And last, but by no means least, the even distribution of weight across the scooter from the stem to the chassis delivers optimal balance. The fact it’s all protected by an IP54 water resistance rating is a bonus.
And of course, there’s also the front and rear suspension. This system works in tandem with the new 10 x 3.0-inch tubeless tires – complete with revamped all-terrain tread and an extra 0.5 inches of width – to absorb shocks and vibrations from roads and off-road routes alike.
Furthering its appeal as a rugged, robust scooter is the upgraded folding mechanism. While it facilitates the folding of the stem, the twist-action contraption and grenade-style pin lock everything into place to guarantee stability – as evidenced by my tests where I exerted a lot of pulling and pushing force on the handlebars while navigating unpredictable off-road terrain.
Among other noteworthy features are a new NFC card reader, a 330 lbs load-bearing capacity, a lighting rig that’s bright enough for night rides, and a suite of p-settings that grant you even more control over the scooter’s performance (i.e. the ability to adjust the strength of your acceleration and electronic braking system).
The only real criticism I have is that its deck is a little short – but even here, the presence of a kickplate mitigates this small grumble. And though the grip tape quickly becomes dirty – and is difficult to clean – the scooter does come with three replacement tapes.
As you can see, I’m grasping at straws – which can only mean one thing: the Varla Eagle One V2 is a top-tier scooter. Whether you’re starting your journey in the world of performance models or want an everyday set of wheels that carries an all-terrain bite, the V2 is a great choice.

Apollo City Pro Overview:
The Apollo City Pro 2023 is the equivalent of Nikola Jokic on a basketball court. It's simply head, shoulders, and torso above the rest when it comes to an overall package.
The Pro may not be the fastest, but its outstanding handling, triple spring suspension, tubeless self-healing tires, mobile app integration, smooth throttle, and exceptionally responsive brakes establish it as the new MVP of the dual motor scooter market. There’s simply no contest.
Sure, it’ll cost you. But here, you’re truly getting what you pay for. The City Pro 2023 is a slam-dunk of a scooter.
The Good:
- Competitive performance profile
- Smooth power delivery
- Sublime handling
- Sleek aesthetic

- Good lighting setup with the best turn signals that I’ve tested
- Battery management system ensures long-term performance
- Integrated mobile app for customized performance
- Fast charging
- 10,000 km warranty
- Low maintenance
- Suitable for tall and heavy riders
- High IP66 water-resistance rating
The Bad:
- The display could be brighter
- Similarly priced models go faster, but the Apollo City Pro’s overall package is superior
Why I Recommend the Apollo City Pro:
The dual 48V 500W motors may be the smallest featured in this guide – but don’t be fooled. They’re still capable of a 32 mph top speed and peak power output of 2000W. This is more than enough power for commuters and those at the start of their performance scooter journey.
Its acceleration rate of 0-15 mph in 2.3 seconds, meanwhile, is ferocious. This trumps the SPLACH Titan and is on par with the Varla Eagle One V2 – in fact, only the Mantis V2 gets out of the blocks faster among similarly priced models. The 6.1 seconds that it takes to get to 25 mph is, however, slower than its two rivals on this list.
Yet, to assess the City Pro on its speed stats alone would be foolhardy. That’s because it’s quite possibly the best scooter around when it comes to all-round build and design.
Take, for instance, its proprietary frame. Everything you see has been purpose-made; there are no structural weaknesses and no cheap components. From the IP66 water-resistance rating and immaculate cable management to the chic graphite gray finish and tapered, grippy deck: even the smallest details are top dollar.
This is also evident in the Pro’s cockpit. Though hardly needed, it represents a significant upgrade on 2022’s model. Here, 8th-generation paddles are now in place for the accelerator and regen brake, with buttons for your lights and riding modes built in. It’s a case study in ergonomic design – one rounded off by a centrally-located display and tactile rubber handgrips that have new turn signals embedded at each end.
Even the handlebars themselves are an improvement on their predecessors. They now measure 26.4 inches across, which is 6% wider than those found on the City 2022. This translates into better handling and balance when riding at top speeds.
A user-friendly mobile app acts as the perfect accomplice for the cockpit. Through it, you can adjust the accelerative and regen strength, record rides, tinker with the top speeds of each riding mode, switch between zero and kick-start mode, and activate a digital lock. You can even see the status and health of your battery.
The regen brake is a marvel worth exploring further. Working in tandem with the dual drums, it’ll bring you to a stop from 15 mph in a sensational 2.1 meters. It can work independently of the drums, too. Alone, it delivers a stopping distance of 4.8 meters (which is better than other commuter scooters). The cherry on top, though, is that it has the potential to recharge your battery by up to 10%. Here, it recycles otherwise wasted energy from braking and funnels it back into the battery. It’s a real feat of innovation and it bolsters the City Pro’s low-maintenance design.
Sticking with the battery for a moment, the 48V 20Ah unit is 11% larger than the 18Ah variant found on the older model. This equates to a longer maximum range of 43 miles, or 27 miles if you’re putting the pedal to the metal. You also get 21700 cells and a battery management system as part of the bargain.
There’s no dropping of standards when we switch the focus to ride quality. In fact, it’s stunning. The triple spring suspension has been refined, resulting in an end product that delivers excellent shock absorption, zero stiffness, and no bottoming out.
The suspension is ably supported by two tubeless 10-inch tires, which – get this – are now self-healing. This all but eliminates the threat of punctures without impacting the high levels of cushioning and traction.
And, with this being an Apollo creation, its portability credentials are impressive. Though it weighs a reasonably hefty 65 lbs, it benefits from a redesigned mechanism that strengthens the stem and facilitates an effortless folding process. It even comes with a new spring clip that keeps the stem locked to the deck when collapsed.
And finally, a nod to the lighting setup. The headlight has undergone a revamp; it’s now brighter, while the angle of the beam can be adjusted. Would I still recommend an extra clip-on light? Yes, but it’s certainly an improvement. The taillight, meanwhile, flashes when you apply the brakes, while the new turn signals are without doubt the best that I’ve tested. You can see them clearly from all angles.
Indeed, this is a scooter that deserves to be seen. With solid performance stats, an inspired design, exquisite ride quality, and a durable build, the Apollo City Pro ticks every box.

How Did I Test the Scooters?
After shortlisting and testing 15 electric scooters that could reach speeds of up to 35 mph, I hand-selected the 3 top performers.
Key to my selection was motor power, nominal and peak power, top speed, acceleration, handling, and braking.
These assessments were conducted in addition to a standardized set of tests that I complete for every electric scooter that I review.
Electric Scooters That I Tested:
Click through the photo carousel to see all of the scooters that I tested for this guide.
Test Criteria:
Motor Power
Key to a scooter’s performance in the speed department is the size and power of its motors.
To assess motor power relative to price, I reported on each scooter’s voltage and watts.
Here, voltage referred to the intensity at which electricity was being pushed through the motors, while watts were a measurement of the size of the motors. Both of these were telling figures as a higher wattage resulted in a faster top speed and a higher voltage equated to more torque and acceleration.
Based on my assessments, I found that the scooters capable of reaching speeds of up to 35 mph had motors with 1000-2000W of nominal power, and operated between 48V and 52V.
Nominal & Peak Power
Alongside my motor power reports, I also noted each scooter’s nominal and peak power outputs.
Here, nominal power measured the power that the motors could produce continuously, while peak power referred to the instantaneous injections of energy that the motors could produce before overheating.
I compared nominal and peak power relative to price.
Top Speed
As expected, one of the most important factors when selecting the top-performing scooters was to test and assess their top speeds.
To do this, I first made sure that each was fully charged, their performance settings were maxed out, and their tires were inflated to the recommended PSI. I then put the pedal to the metal on a long, flat stretch of road.
To widen the field of potential candidates, I opened the assessment of top speed up to all scooters that could reach between 30 and 40 mph.
Acceleration
Reaching speeds of up to 35 mph is a thrill, but what’s even more white-knuckle-inducing is rapid acceleration rates.
To report on this, I conducted multiple acceleration tests across two intervals – 0-15 mph and 0-25 mph. For each interval, I ran 3x two-way directional runs on a flat, dry road, and then averaged the data (in seconds).
To ensure consistency across the scooters, I repeated the criteria used in the top speed tests above (i.e. maxing out performance settings, and so on), while I also made sure to put each in zero-start mode.
Alongside these tests, I also reported on the responsiveness of the controllers and throttles to assess how smooth each scooter’s power delivery was.
Handling
Riding fast is fun, but only if your scooter handles well.
Here, I reported on each scooter’s stability and control through a series of tests.
Firstly, I assessed how their handlebar width, deck-to-handlebar height, rake angle, deck space, and kickplate angle affected ride quality. Scooters that had tall stems and wide, control-inducing handlebars scored highly, as did those that provided ample platforms to find comfortable riding stances.
I also made sure to assess how stable and balanced each scooter felt at speed and selected those with no signs of wobble.
The last area of assessment was made on how responsive, nimble, and agile the tires were. In particular, I focused on their size, profile, and tread. Based on my tests, the top performers were those that measured at least 10 inches high, had rounded front-on profiles, and patterned treads. Combined, these design attributes were able to maintain the most traction.
Braking
Safety is paramount when it comes to riding fast, and the key indicator of this was each scooter’s ability to bring me to a safe stop.
Here, I measured the distance that it took for each to stop from 15 mph. If electronic or regenerative braking systems were present then I dialed their strength up to the max.
I repeated the braking test five times per scooter and averaged the data.
