The Apollo City Pro and the Varla Pegasus are two highly acclaimed electric scooters, each with its own distinct advantages. Here's a detailed comparison to help you choose the one that suits your needs.
To begin with, the Apollo City Pro promises an impressive top speed of 40km/h while the Varla Pegasus maxes out at a slightly lower speed of 35km/h. Acceleration is also faster on the Apollo City Pro, reaching its top speed in just 8.1 seconds. The Varla Pegasus takes a bit more time but offers a smoother acceleration experience.

Apollo City Pro shines with its triple braking system (Regenerative, Disc & Electronic) ensuring immediate response and superior safety. Varla Pegasus, on the other hand, has a Dual Hydraulic disc brake setup, ensuring effective braking but not as comprehensive as City Pro.
A notable difference is observed in their design. The Apollo City Pro showcases a minimalist design with its sleek aluminum frame and integrated lights, whereas the Varla Pegasus, offers a more robust, off-road aesthetic.
Both have similar features like integrated displays, multiple ride modes, and they are foldable. However, Apollo City Pro is lighter at 18kg making it easier to carry compared to the slightly heavier Varla Pegasus which weighs around 25kg.
In conclusion, both are exceptional electric scooters with their own strengths. Apollo City Pro stands out with its higher speed and superior braking system and Varla Pegasus impresses with its longer range and solid tires. The choice between them ultimately depends on your specific requirements and preferences.
