MS ENERGY Urban X

The MS Energy Urban X is an electric scooter for riders who want more power and confidence in the city than ordinary single-motor models offer. Its main trump card is two brushless motors with an output of 2 × 300 W, located in the front and rear wheels. All-wheel drive provides strong torque, confident acceleration and easy hill climbing even for heavier riders. Energy is supplied by a 48 V / 15 Ah battery with a capacity of 720 Wh and a Smart BMS system, enabling a range of up to 60 km on a single charge. Comfort is ensured by front and rear shock absorbers and 10-inch tubeless tyres with puncture protection, so you don't have to worry about glass or nails on the road. The scooter has an aluminium alloy frame, wide handlebars for better control, turn signals, cruise control and a variable electronic brake that recharges the battery when braking. Operation and settings are made easy by the MS Energy Urban mobile app. The Urban X complies with the European standard EN 17128, carries riders weighing up to 120 kg and is designed for riders aged 14 and over. It is ideal for daily commuting to work as well as riding through parks and hilly city districts.

Performance and range

The main advantage of the Urban X is its dual drive with a total output of 600 W. The two 2 × 300 W motors work together so that the scooter accelerates smoothly and confidently and doesn't run out of breath even on steeper sections where single-motor scooters start to slow down. Motor output can be adjusted in the app. In line with regulations, the top speed is hardware-limited to 25 km/h, and three riding modes are available: pedestrian mode up to 6 km/h, Normal up to 15 km/h and Sport up to 25 km/h. For safety reasons, the motor only engages after kicking off above 3 km/h, preventing unwanted starts if the throttle is pressed accidentally. Energy is supplied by a 48 V / 15 Ah lithium-ion battery with a capacity of 720 Wh, which provides a range of up to 60 km (measured with a 75 kg rider at a constant speed on flat ground). The intelligent Smart BMS system manages energy consumption and protects the cells, and you can monitor the battery status in the separate MS Energy Smart BMS app. The battery lasts 600 to 800 charging cycles. Charging is done with the 54.6 V / 2 A charger; the manufacturer states a charging time of 4–6 hours on its website and 8–9 hours in the manual. Regenerative braking with the electronic brake returns part of the energy to the battery.

The scooter's frame is made of an aluminium alloy that combines strength with a reasonable weight of 28.6 kg. Unfolded, the Urban X measures 125 × 131.5 × 67.5 cm (L × H × W), and when folded its height drops to 64 cm. The folding mechanism features a safety lock that prevents it from loosening due to vibrations, and the folded steering column is secured with a hook to the rear of the deck. The wide handlebars provide stable steering even on uneven roads. The 10" tubeless tyres (10 × 2.70-6.5) contain a gel filling that prevents air from escaping in the event of a minor puncture – the manufacturer applies an automotive industry standard here. The recommended pressure is 3.2–3.8 bar. The integrated LCD display keeps you informed, showing speed, battery level, selected mode, trip and total distance and light status. The MS Energy Urban app lets you switch the lights on and off, lock the scooter with a password, change speed modes, activate cruise control, monitor detailed data such as battery voltage, current, motor output and motor or controller temperature, and also update the firmware. Equipment includes a kickstand, a rear mudguard and side reflectors. The scooter is available in grey with a chrome variant.

Safety, comfort and practicality

The braking system consists of mechanical drum brakes on the front and rear wheels, which are reliable, weather-resistant and virtually maintenance-free. They are complemented by a variable electronic brake operated by a separate lever – the harder you press it, the more intensively the motors brake, so you can dose the braking force precisely. The manufacturer recommends using both brakes at the same time. Comfort is provided by front and rear shock absorbers with a C-shaped fork, which, with their medium travel, effectively absorb impacts from paving, potholes and kerbs and take the strain off your wrists and knees. Cruise control activates automatically when you hold the same speed (at least 6 km/h) for 7 seconds and is deactivated by pressing the brake or throttle – so you don't have to hold the throttle constantly on longer stretches. Visibility is ensured by a powerful front LED light, a red rear light that switches on automatically with the front light, turn signals operated by buttons on the handlebars and side reflectors. In pedestrian mode, the rear light flashes and the front light switches on automatically. The scooter is rated IPX4, so it withstands splashing water, but riding in the rain and through water deeper than 2 cm should be avoided. Thanks to folding, you can easily transport it by car or store it at home.

Our verdict

In the MS Energy range of city scooters, the Urban X is the most powerful model and the only one with two motors. Its smaller brother, the Urban 500, is considerably lighter (19 kg), has a single 500 W motor, a 36 V / 13 Ah battery with a range of up to 50 km and front suspension only – making it more suitable for riders who often carry their scooter up stairs. The affordable Mentor 500 with a 500 W motor and a 36 V / 10.4 Ah (374 Wh) battery offers a range of up to 45 km at a weight of 22 kg. The Flare has the same 48 V / 15 Ah battery, a range of up to 60 km and dual suspension, but only a single 600 W motor. The closest to the Urban X is the Thrust 300 x, which also uses two 2 × 300 W motors and a 720 Wh battery, but is aimed at off-road riding, has a steel alloy frame, disc brakes and a higher weight of 32 kg. The Urban X therefore represents the ideal combination of dual-drive power, long range and urban practicality – for anyone who wants a scooter that tackles hills effortlessly while remaining compact enough for daily commuting.
