Dualtron Popular (POP): A Budget-Friendly E-Scooter for All
The Dualtron Popular, affectionately known as the “POP,” lives up to its name by providing a compact, affordable, and versatile ride for city dwellers, commuters, and casual riders alike.
Designed for accessibility without compromising on quality, the Dualtron POP is an ideal option for anyone seeking a powerful yet budget-friendly electric scooter. Available in both single- and dual-motor versions, the POP is built for everyone, from daily commuters to occasional riders, ensuring that high-quality performance and convenience are no longer a luxury.
Versatile Motor Configurations
The Dualtron POP offers two motor configurations to suit different riding needs. For those looking for a more relaxed city commute, the single-motor version with a 450W nominal motor is a fantastic option, providing speeds of up to 45 km/h** in unrestricted settings (when legally allowed).
Riders seeking an extra kick can opt for the dual-motor version, which doubles the power to a total of 900W, boosting the top speed to 55 km/h** (when legally allowed). This dual-motor configuration gives the POP a punchy performance, perfect for those who want a little more acceleration and torque, especially on hilly routes with slopes as steep as 37%.
Budget-Friendly with Ample Battery Options
Keeping affordability in mind, the Dualtron POP is offered with three battery capacities, ensuring that you can select the right balance of range and budget. Riders can choose between 52V 14Ah, 20Ah, and 25Ah battery options. The 14Ah battery provides a range of up to 30 km, ideal for shorter city trips. The mid-range 20Ah battery extends the range to around 45 km, while the top-end 25Ah Samsung battery delivers an impressive range of up to 60 km on a single charge, perfect for longer commutes or full-day excursions. Charging times vary from around 7 to 12.5 hours, depending on the battery choice, making it convenient to recharge overnight or during a workday.
Lightweight, Compact, and Easily Foldable
The Dualtron POP has been thoughtfully designed for urban life. Weighing approximately 29.6 kg for the single-motor version and 32.5 kg for the dual-motor version, it strikes an excellent balance between durability and portability. Its foldable frame and handlebars make it easy to pack away or carry on public transportation, while the fast-folding system allows riders to collapse the scooter quickly, saving time and hassle during busy commutes. Compact when folded, the POP can easily fit into car trunks or store under desks, making it a flexible choice for urban commuters who need portability.
Excellent Suspension and Tires for Smooth Riding
Despite its budget-friendly price, the Dualtron POP comes with high-quality suspension to ensure a smooth and comfortable ride. The front air spring shock absorber and rear spring shock absorber combine with 9-inch inflatable tires to provide effective shock absorption, making the POP surprisingly comfortable on bumpy city roads. This suspension setup absorbs much of the impact from uneven surfaces, while the large pneumatic tires improve overall grip, making the POP an excellent choice for those seeking a smoother ride without investing in a higher-end model.
Durable and Low-Maintenance Drum Brakes
Safety is a priority on the Dualtron POP. Both the front and rear wheels are equipped with drum brakes, which are renowned for their durability and require less maintenance compared to traditional disc brakes. Drum brakes are fully enclosed, protecting them from dust and debris, and are highly effective for consistent braking power even in adverse conditions. Paired with electric braking assistance, the braking system on the POP ensures reliable stopping power, providing peace of mind in urban environments where quick stops are often necessary.
Full Range of Rider-Friendly Features
The Dualtron POP is equipped with a variety of convenient features that enhance both safety and usability. The scooter comes standard with dual 3W headlights, brake lights, turn signals, and a horn, ensuring that riders are visible and can easily signal their intentions in traffic. A footrest/spoiler provides added comfort and stability for longer rides, while the rubber deck offers excellent grip and is easy to clean, making it a low-maintenance option. These features, typically found in higher-end models, make the POP exceptionally well-equipped for a budget scooter, adding to its appeal as a practical everyday ride.
Seamless Integration with the Dualtron Mobile App
The Dualtron POP is compatible with the EY2 display and the Dualtron mobile app, allowing riders to track essential metrics and customize their riding experience. The app provides real-time insights into speed, battery life, and distance traveled, while allowing users to adjust settings for enhanced performance and safety. With this level of connectivity, riders can stay informed and in control, making the POP not only convenient but also tech-forward, even at its accessible price point.
Built for Everyday Use: Durability and Design
True to the Dualtron reputation, the POP is built with a robust frame and quality materials that can withstand daily wear and tear. The scooter can support a maximum load of up to 120 kg, making it suitable for a wide range of riders.
With a wheelbase of 970 mm and a ground clearance of 100 mm, the POP is stable and balanced, offering a confident ride over various surfaces. Its compact dimensions when folded—1230x260x450 mm—make it easy to store, while the unfolded size of 1220x660x1220 mm offers a comfortable stance and an ergonomic handlebar height for most riders.
Affordable, Reliable, and Built for the People
The Dualtron POP stands out as one of the most affordable options in the Dualtron lineup and the entire e-scooter market for double-motor models. Priced at more or less €1000, the POP provides an unbeatable value for riders who need a versatile, reliable, and feature-packed e-scooter without breaking the bank. Whether you’re a first-time e-scooter buyer or a seasoned commuter, the POP’s blend of quality, performance, and affordability makes it an exceptional choice that democratizes the Dualtron experience.
