The overall construction weighs 29.8 kg, ensuring excellent stability. For maximum comfort, it features front and rear suspension with travel of up to 61 mm, significantly absorbing bumps and uneven surfaces.

Design and equipment

The Egret Ey! 1 impresses with its clean, modern, yet robust design that combines functionality and aesthetics. When folded, the scooter measures 1220 × 638 mm, making it easy to carry and store. Thanks to the refined folding mechanism, it can be folded quickly and safely, which is a major advantage when using public transport or traveling by car. Riding comfort is ensured by full suspension with single-sided swing arms and top-quality polymer damping with 61 mm of travel, which ranks among the best in its class. Ride stability is also supported by 10″ tubeless tires equipped with a self-sealing layer that minimizes the risk of punctures. The lighting consists of a front LED light with 425 lm output, ensuring excellent visibility at night, and a rear light with a brake function for increased safety. In addition, there are integrated turn signals at the ends of the handlebars, a feature usually available only on more expensive models. The modern LED display provides an overview of speed, battery level, and riding mode. It also includes 3 riding modes – Drive, Sport, and Extreme – plus an additional walk mode at 6 km/h, which makes handling easier when not riding.

Use and practicality

The Egret Ey! 1 is an ideal transport solution for everyday city riding. Thanks to a range of up to 65 km, it is also great for longer trips without the need for frequent charging, which takes 7–8 hours. The construction, weighing 29.8 kg with a load capacity of 120 kg, provides stability and versatility for a wide spectrum of riders. Advanced front and rear suspension with 61 mm travel allows comfortable riding even on cobblestones or uneven city roads. Tubeless 10″ tires with a self-sealing layer significantly reduce the risk of punctures and lower maintenance requirements. The scooter features splash-water resistance rated IPX5, so it can handle light rain as well. A reliable folding mechanism makes transport on public transit or in a car easier. Through the mobile app, you can track riding statistics, battery status, and riding mode settings. Maintenance is simple — regular checks of the braking system, tire pressure, and overall technical condition extend the lifespan of the entire scooter. It’s a scooter designed for everyday reliability, comfort, and minimal worries.

Safety

The Egret Ey! 1 places great emphasis on safety. It is equipped with a triple braking system that includes a front mechanical drum brake, a rear mechanical disc brake, and an electronic motor brake, ensuring quick and stable stopping in any situation. The rider is also protected by top-quality lighting — the front 425 lm LED light provides maximum visibility, while the rear brake light reacts instantly when slowing down. A major advantage is the integrated turn signals on the handlebars, which significantly increase safety in traffic. 10″ tubeless tires provide good traction and stability even on worse surfaces, and thanks to the self-sealing layer they reduce the risk of punctures in critical situations. The construction with a load capacity of 120 kg gives the rider confidence that the scooter is strong and stable even under higher load. The electronics are protected by a water-resistance rating of IPX5, supporting safe riding even in rainy weather. All these elements create an exceptionally safe riding experience even at the maximum permitted speed of 20 km/h.

Performance and range

The Egret Ey! 1 offers performance parameters that place it among the most powerful urban e-scooters in its category. The rated power of 500 W combined with a peak power of 1,512 W delivers dynamic riding, quick starts, and enough strength even for moderate inclines. The 40 Nm torque is among the highest in its class, and for strong acceleration there is also the Sport mode or the extra-powerful Extreme mode. Energy is supplied by a high-capacity battery 46.8 V / 14.5 Ah (678 Wh), providing a range of up to 65 km, which is more than sufficient in the city. Charging takes 7–8 hours, so it’s enough to plug the scooter in overnight. The model also offers a practical walk mode at 6 km/h, suitable for pushing the scooter alongside you. Performance stability is complemented by 10″ tubeless tires, as well as full suspension with 61 mm of travel, enabling smooth riding even in more demanding city conditions.

Our rating

Within the Egret brand portfolio, the Ey! 1 model offers an excellent balance of price, performance, and comfort. Compared to models such as the Egret X or Egret Pro, it provides above-standard suspension with 61 mm travel, which is above average in this class. The peak power of 1,512 W places it among the more dynamic models while still maintaining an acceptable price. Its 65 km range is comparable to higher-end models, while features such as integrated turn signals, a 425 lm front light, and self-sealing tires surpass them in many aspects. The model also has a major advantage in structural stability with a weight of 29.8 kg and a load capacity of 120 kg, making it suitable for a wider range of riders. The Egret Ey! 1 is therefore an ideal compromise between affordable Egret models and their highest premium lines — offering high comfort, performance, and safety features that competitors often cannot provide in the same price category.

About the brand

The German company Walberg Urban Electrics has been selling the premium EGRET brand since 2012. A second lifestyle brand, THE-URBAN, was added in 2017. In the meantime, Walberg Urban Electrics has distributed more than 60,000 electric scooters. Its founder, Florian Walberg, started out as an electric scooter user. Thanks to his own experience, he recognized the enormous potential of this new form of mobility. According to him, in the coming years, cities will have to reorganize roads and sidewalks in a new way — away from internal combustion engine vehicles toward alternative forms of mobility. Electric scooters, especially foldable ones, can be easily combined with public transport or with your own car. And we completely agree with him. The EGRET and THE-URBAN brands are very popular especially in Germany thanks to their German quality, reliability, and stylish design.
