VIPCOO electric scooter – the VS6, VS6 Pro and VS9 at Wheelyshop
VIPCOO builds rugged e-scooters with knobbly pneumatic tyres, front and rear suspension and indicators as standard. At Wheelyshop you will find the VS6 with a single 1,000 W motor and 45 km of claimed range, the VS6 Pro with dual motors totalling 2,400 W and 65 km, and the VS9 with 3,600 W, a 60 V battery and 90 km. Weight goes from 28 kg on the VS6 to 45.7 kg on the VS9.

At Wheelyshop you get free delivery on all electric vehicles, a 2-year warranty and spare parts.
In short
- VIPCOO electric scooters with 45–90 km of claimed range, 1,000–3,600 W motor output and 28–45.7 kg.
- All have 10–11-inch pneumatic off-road tyres, front and rear suspension, indicators, ambient light and cruise control; the VS6 and VS6 Pro also have an NFC lock.
- The VS6 is the lightest and easiest to handle, the VS6 Pro adds dual motors and 35° climbing, the VS9 has the biggest battery, hydraulic disc brakes and a 150 kg maximum load.
- No model fits the bicycle class that most EU countries define – all exceed 250 W and are built for 45–65 km/h, so they are treated as mopeds and, without national registration and insurance, are for enclosed private land or a track only.

Choosing the right VIPCOO electric scooter – a guide to the VS6, VS6 Pro and VS9
The models share the same basic recipe: pneumatic off-road tyres, front and rear shock absorbers, three riding modes, cruise control and lighting with ambient light. The difference lies in motor output, battery, brakes and weight – here we go through that, the rules in Europe and how to keep your VIPCOO in shape.
VIPCOO electric scooters – how the models differ
The VS6 is the entry model with a single 1,000 W motor, a 48 V 18.2 Ah battery (874 Wh), 45 km of claimed range and 28 kg. It has dual disc brakes with E-ABS, an NFC lock and an adjustable handlebar. The VS6 Pro has the same frame but dual motors of 2 x 1,200 W, a 52 V 20.8 Ah battery (1,082 Wh), 65 km of claimed range and weighs 31 kg – three kilos more for considerably more power. The VS9 is the flagship of the series with dual motors of 2 x 1,800 W, a 60 V 26 Ah battery (1,560 Wh), 90 km of claimed range, 11-inch tyres, hydraulic disc brakes and dual charging ports. It weighs 45.7 kg and is recommended for riders between 155 and 195 cm with a load of up to 150 kg.
Range and battery – what you can expect
The manufacturer's 45, 65 and 90 km are measured under ideal conditions. In practice you should expect 60–75 percent of the quoted figure, i.e. around 27–34 km on the VS6, 39–49 km on the VS6 Pro and 54–68 km on the VS9. Cold, a heavy rider, hills and high speed reduce it further. The battery is built in on all of them; charging time is 8–9 hours on the VS6, 9–10 hours on the VS6 Pro and 6–7 hours on the VS9, which has dual charging ports and ships with two chargers. If you need a bigger margin, the VS9 is the obvious choice – feel free to compare with more long-range electric scooters. Our practical tips to get more range from every charge work whatever model you ride.
Motor, hills and weight on a VIPCOO electric scooter
Motor output determines how the scooter behaves on climbs and with a load. The VS6 with a single motor manages a 25° climb, the VS6 Pro with dual motors 35° and the VS9 a full 37°. Dual motors also give better grip on gravel and loose ground. Top speed is 45, 60 and 65 km/h respectively, and all ship with a 25 km/h limiter. Weight is the downside: 28 and 31 kg can be lifted into a car or carried up a short staircase, while 45.7 kg on the VS9 requires you to roll the scooter all the way to its parking spot. The VS6 and VS6 Pro are rated for a 120 kg load, the VS9 for 150 kg.
Comfort: tyres, suspension and brakes
Every VIPCOO model rolls on pneumatic off-road tyres – 10 inches on the VS6 and VS6 Pro, 11 inches on the VS9 – which together with front and rear shock absorbers take the edge off potholes and gravel roads. The VS6 brakes with two disc brakes and E-ABS, the VS6 Pro with two disc brakes, and the VS9 has hydraulic disc brakes that give stronger and smoother braking from higher speeds. You lock the VS6 and VS6 Pro with the supplied NFC card; none of the models has a saddle or an app. Water resistance is IPX4, which copes with rain spray but not a pressure washer. You will find more terrain models among our off-road electric scooters. A model's IP rating tells you how well sealed it is – we explain the numbers in our guide to riding an electric scooter in the rain.
Rules in Europe for a VIPCOO electric scooter
In most EU countries an e-scooter counts as a bicycle only if it is limited to 20–25 km/h and, usually, no more than 250 W of rated motor output. It may then use the cycle path with one rider at a time, while helmet and minimum-age rules vary between countries. No VIPCOO model meets that: the VS6 has 1,000 W and 45 km/h, the VS6 Pro 2,400 W and 60 km/h and the VS9 3,600 W and 65 km/h. All are therefore formally treated as mopeds or motor vehicles and, without national registration and insurance, may only be ridden on enclosed private land or a track. The 25 km/h limiter does not change the classification. We always recommend a helmet – see our helmets. Check your national rules via the EU overview of road rules and safety. The rules on helmets, age and cycle lanes are summarised country by country in our guide to electric scooter laws in Europe.

Frequently asked questions
Is a VIPCOO electric scooter legal in Europe?
No VIPCOO model meets the bicycle-class requirements that most EU countries apply, i.e. roughly 250 W of rated motor output and 20–25 km/h. The VS6, VS6 Pro and VS9 have 1,000–3,600 W and are designed for 45–65 km/h, so they are formally treated as mopeds and, without national registration and insurance, may only be ridden on enclosed private land or a track. The 25 km/h limiter does not change the classification – check your national rules.
How far does a VIPCOO electric scooter go on a charge?
The manufacturer quotes 45 km for the VS6, 65 km for the VS6 Pro and 90 km for the VS9. Expect 60–75 percent in real-world riding, depending on temperature, load, speed and surface. The VS9 has the biggest battery at 60 V 26 Ah (1,560 Wh) and charges in 6–7 hours with the two supplied chargers.
Which VIPCOO electric scooter is best for longer rides?
The VS9 with 90 km of claimed range, dual motors totalling 3,600 W and hydraulic disc brakes is built for long sessions and heavy loads up to 150 kg. If you want something easier to handle, the VS6 Pro is a good compromise with 65 km of claimed range and 31 kg. The VS6 is the lightest at 28 kg and suits shorter trips.
Do the VIPCOO VS6, VS6 Pro and VS9 have a saddle, an app or an NFC lock?
None of the models has a saddle or an app. The VS6 and VS6 Pro have an NFC lock with a supplied card, while the VS9 has no NFC. All have indicators, cruise control, an electric horn, ambient light, a USB-C port and three riding modes, and the VS6 and VS6 Pro also have a height-adjustable handlebar.
Are spare parts available for a VIPCOO electric scooter?
Yes, wear parts and spare parts are ordered through Wheelyshop's spare parts portal. Enter the exact model – VS6, VS6 Pro or VS9 – since tyre size, battery and brakes differ. Every electric vehicle at Wheelyshop also comes with a 2-year warranty.
