Is the Engwe Y600 the Ultimate Commuter Scooter? Full Review

[@KhizarAlam-u7f]

Amazing Review. I just ordered one of these with your reference code. Got a 50 euro discount. Thanks.

[@pheasant2323]

I own Y600 that I use for transportation to work and some recreational urban trail riding. Decent amount of torque and more playful then other more common scooter designs. There’s a lot more performance and stability in good ol tubes n tires. I always add the speed unlock before riding and that’s why I don’t get great mileage but it’s enough and the only way to go!!

[@greenwave819]

nice production quality on this video!

[@DrewElia]

Thank you!!

I will be studying these scooter reviews to get one for my wife, so that she can ride with me when I take out the diablo. nice one !

[@DrewElia]

Nice! That’s what my wife does with me now haha, this scooter is great for portability and can hit 26 mph which is fast enough, the other scooter I reviewed was more money but faster as well

[@apex_prey]

Got me one and I love it. She's a sweet little ride. (Unlock the speed limiter for sure for those nearly 30mph speeds.)

[@Santos-ek8md]

Do you find that the charging from zero batt takes as long as 10hrs?

[@apex_prey]

@Santos-ek8md Wouldn't know. I never let it drop to 0.

[@tonnyhansen4861]

How do you unlock it . I live in Denmark, and asume its restricted

[@erike7297]

These are great! Esk8s aren’t for everyone. I used to have a few gopeds when I was a kid and look how far scooters have come. Faster, much quieter, and probably a lot more reliable too.

[@DrewElia]

Agree, as long as we get people on PEV that’s what I’m all for, cars for short daily commutes is crazy. Only going a few miles in a city is so much quicker to n a PEV

Great video! Did you find that the adjustable handlebar height made it feel any less stable or solid at speed?

[@DrewElia]

Thank you so much for checking out the video! Truly appreciate it! I’m a taller guy at 6’ but even at top speed it felt stable, I tried it at a few different height levels but found right up to my mid stomach area was a perfect area to have grip and balance with it!

[@rajifonte6703]

Excellent review i was debating on this ,ausom 🐆 , kqi300x and ninebot g2. Ultimately i went for ninebot for that great suspension and they always have parts available on their website. But when i went to finally pay for it i kept getting a computer glitch. And the black fri s cyber mon sale was over. So then i wanted the ausom🐆 but i didn’t know if they had warranty or customer service thats good. So i eventually ended getting the niu kqi300x which i might regret getting. And i bought the kqi100p for $249.00 as an emergency scooter. But if i had seen this review i would have gotten this engue one because i want a seated scooter i can take on subway daily. I only wonder about their customer service? And arts availability? But for the price im going to still get it on my next check i love this 50$ off is definitely making it worth my while along with all features. Ine thing i didn’t notice is what are tired made of? Tubes? Tubeless?

[@knado8135]

Where did you find the screws/allen bolts to put the footrest on? It shows 4 holes, but i didn't receive any extra bolts or screws. I ordered 2 scooters, so i know it wasnt just a fluke that I was missing them...

[@ramonconaway1395]

How do you take the clear plastic peace off so the scooter can lock

[@DrewElia]

If you’re talking about the white plastic thing in the stem don’t remove that! It’s apart of the locking mechanism.

[@Mc2032m]

Can you please help me Mine says 28mph but it only goes up to 16mph how can I change that

[@DrewElia]

I believe on there website you can see how to “unlock” it it’s a series of turning the key on. And pulling the lever a few times I believe. Check out the website and look at FAQ

[@Clyde-Of-Chicago]

How many miles does this exactly run before the full battery dies out?

[@DrewElia]

That depends on a a lot of factors, your riding style, terrain, weather, temperature, your weight, I ride mostly flat land and weigh 100 kg or 220 lbs and was in top speed mode the entire time, you can get mid 20s miles of range on a single charge. So a lot of factors. Lighter riders will get more range out of it, heavier riders will get less

[@nibirumyself1]

Great review, Drew. Now, I just received mine today. First off, it's well designed and beautiful. With that being said, I noticed a couple issues straight away. I didn't receive any screws to install the footplate. The other thing was the fold down mechanism that enables the riding position and folding position to take place. It doesn't lock as I think it should when you lift up the handlebars. Shouldn't it lock when raised up so you can ride? The red lever that you step on to fold it seems to be the issue. I've watched a few videos, including yours to see where the red lever is when you unpacked it and when you're riding it. It's clearly up (above the pin) when you're riding correct? Well, my red lever is only up when it's in the folded position. There's no way technical wise it can be above the pin when it's in the upright position. I've been messin with it for the past 2 hours and either I'm a bit retarded or this piece was installed backwards or something equivalent to that. Any thoughts? Thanks...

[@DrewElia]

The folding and unfolding definitely took some effort to push it into place. I said the same thing when I received mine. I thought the white piece was suppose to be removed but it’s what holds it in place. The screws that you need are already there when you remove the seat you just reuse the bolts that are there to put the rear red foot hold back in the suspension

[@nibirumyself1]

@DrewElia Thank you. 5 minutes before you replied, I took the advice of another Y600 owner that responded to my comment on another thread. I pushed the front tire up against a wall and pushed the handlebars up with a bit more force. Boom, it correctly locked into place 👍🏼Thanks for the quick response, brother. Your review played a huge role in my purchase. Much appreciated 🙏🏼 Now, let's get on this thing for the first time and take a ride 😎

[@DrewElia]

[@randyshrimplin9438]

Question about size. I have storage constraints. How tall is it when folded please?

[@DrewElia]

It folds really flat for the most part once folded it’s about 12-13 inches I believe

[@jamessibley6040]

The Engwe S6 rear suspension apparently doesn't work. Does the suspension at the rear work on this one. The deck looks a bit bigger in the s6

[@DrewElia]

This is an actual suspension, not shocks in the suspension but for my weight if I go off a curb or jump it, it bottoms out, so there is to consider as well! But for normal bumps and imperfect road conditions it works well

[@Wizard_of_Daws]

The tires hollow or tubes?

[@DrewElia]

Tuned i believe

[@DeathMorethanlife]

Hey I had this scooter for about a week now but for some time I notice that it creaks a little did you experience that too?

[@DrewElia]

Creaking from the suspension area? I had that happen as well

[@DeathMorethanlife]

@ yea is there any way to fix it?

[@whiterussian7564]

Did the top speed drop of 26mph for you drop with less battery life?

[@DrewElia]

As with any PEV yes when battery life gets tot he end you’re not going to get top speed,

[@ZareishMoore]

How many hours does this last

[@DrewElia]

It’s not hours really more miles, it’s a large battery for its size I got close to 30 miles for 220lbs 100kg riding in top speed mode but mostly Flat land.

[@b-macrap6686]

What does the red numbers represent? Next to the keyhole

[@DrewElia]

That’s the voltage meter. It tells you the battery voltage and is more accurate than the battery bars on the display. Once you learn where the battery voltage corresponds to the range you’ll be able to have a better understanding of your mileage.

[@b-macrap6686]

[@shotbymarlozan]

Hello buddy! Nice video. Thanks. Why don't you recommend charging the overnight battery? Do you think this scooter is a good option for short deliveries? Any IP Rating? How about customer service? Thanks again, bro👍🏽

[@DrewElia]

Charging any PEV with out supervision is just a general no no for me, things happen and you want to be able to be alert to take care of any situation. Never leave a PEV charging unattended is what the companies recommend as well! its a great scooter for the price and for the battery size as well its a large capacity.

[@shotbymarlozan]

​@@DrewElia Thanks 👍🏻 What is the range of this scooter? Is it IP certified? Is that "ding" you hear a manufacturing defect? Are the tires good or do they have problems with flat tires? Are spare parts available from Engwe?

[@DrewElia]

Engwe in vernal is a great company. I have now a few of their e-bikes and this scooter. I haven’t had any issues with it and the range for me was mid 20s miles but in 100kg 220lbs and ride faster. So if you’re lighter you may get more range! The ding you hear is the Shocks just bottoming out and hitting the housing, it’s just again my weight and jumping off of curbs doesn’t like it 😂 but for riding over bumps or cracks it does a great job

[@shotbymarlozan]

@@DrewElia Thanks bro! Did you get 20 miles of range on the gear 3?

Hey man everyday i go to work 4.6 mile and back 4.6 mile if i buy this can it replace a car ?

[@DrewElia]

first off thanks for checking out the channel. make sure to subscribe for more content coming out! I mean, pending terrain, hills, weight of the rider, weather as far as temp there are a lot of factors when it comes to range. but I would say yes, and worse case you bring your charger with you the first few trips and plug in when you get to work or when you get home. you'll be able to see how much battery you use. if your'e gunning it at top speed the whole time you won't get the full range.
