Why this scooter is interesting

The Xiaomi Electric Scooter 6 Pro is aimed at people who want a comfortable and stable scooter for daily commuting and don’t want to be limited to smooth asphalt. Its main advantage is the combination of 12″ off-road tires, suspension on both wheels, and a ground clearance of 143 mm — this allows it to handle cobblestones, rough asphalt, and unpaved roads with significantly more ease than cheap scooters with small wheels. Riding comfort is the main argument here, not speed.

Key parameters explained in plain language

Propulsion is provided by a rear brushless motor with a peak power of up to 1000 W — this is maximum, not continuous power, but it’s enough for brisk acceleration and climbing up to 22%, so it can handle hilly parts of the city. The maximum speed is 25 km/h, which corresponds to common limits for electric scooters. Comfort is ensured by front double spring suspension with 40 mm travel and a rear central shock absorber, which together with the large wheels absorb impacts.

The battery has a capacity of 10 Ah / 468 Wh, and the manufacturer states a range of up to 70 km. However, it’s fair to clarify that this value applies in Standard economy mode at 15 km/h and under ideal conditions. At full speed of 25 km/h in Sport mode, expect more like 40 to 45 km, which is still decent for daily commuting. Charging, however, takes around 9 hours, so you’ll be topping up the battery overnight.

Practical aspects: brakes, weight, durability

Safety is handled by a dual braking system with a front disc brake and rear electronic E-ABS, which together shorten the braking distance. Also included is TCS anti-slip technology for stability in wet conditions and IPX5 resistance. However, consider this as protection against splashing water — the manufacturer itself does not recommend riding in rain and puddles to prevent water from entering the chassis. The load capacity is 120 kg, and the scooter can be ridden by a rider between 120 and 200 cm tall.

One thing to know upfront: the scooter weighs 27.3 kg. This is the price for large wheels, suspension, and a sturdy construction — it’s a plus for riding, but it’s quite heavy for frequent folding and carrying up stairs or into a car trunk. If you live on an upper floor without an elevator, consider if the higher weight will bother you. Control and data are handled by the Xiaomi Home app, where you can switch modes, lock the motor, and update firmware.

What to watch out for

The biggest thing is the real-world range. The 70 km figure only applies in economy mode at 15 km/h — those who ride at full speed will likely get 40 to 45 km, and even less in winter or uphill. The second thing is the weight of 27.3 kg and charging time of around 9 hours, which need to be taken into account. And even though the scooter has IPX5 rating, it’s not designed for regular riding in the rain — rather for handling a shower. These are expected characteristics of a suspended scooter in this class, not defects of a specific model.

When it doesn’t make sense

If you’re looking for a lightweight folding scooter for daily carrying onto public transport and up stairs, a 27-kilogram scooter will be impractical for you — opt for a lighter and smaller model. It also won’t suit people who ride exclusively on smooth asphalt and don’t need suspension or off-road tires, as you’re paying extra for the added comfort. And if you expect a real 70 km on a single charge during brisk riding, you’ll be disappointed — you’ll only cover that much in economy mode.

Verdict: who it’s worth it for

The Xiaomi Electric Scooter 6 Pro is a sensible choice for anyone who wants a comfortable and stable scooter for daily commuting, even on rougher surfaces. For 12,599 CZK, you get 12″ off-road tires, suspension on both wheels, a 1000W motor, and a climbing ability of 22% — a combination that usually costs more. Don’t consider it a lightweight folding scooter or expect 70 km at full speed, but rather a comfortable everyday scooter. For those who appreciate suspension and large wheels, the price of 13,999 CZK reduced to 12,599 CZK is appealing.

When it comes to an electric scooter, do you primarily focus on range, or is the comfort of suspension and large wheels more important to you?
