Every figure below is labelled with where it comes from, so a manufacturer’s claim never reads as a measurement.
Manufacturer power figures are measured on a bench, not on a hill with a rider on board. Use them to compare models, not to predict what you will feel.
Up to 46 km is the manufacturer's figure, measured on flat ground, in warm weather, with a light rider holding a steady low speed. Vancouver hills, winter temperatures and stop-start traffic all cost you range. We have not yet run our own road test on this one; when we do, the tested figure goes in the spec table beside the claim.
Drum brakes are close to maintenance-free and completely unbothered by rain, but they fade on long descents in a way discs do not. On a steep hill, brake in stages instead of dragging them.
IPX5 covers rain and road spray. It does not cover immersion — riding through standing water, or pressure-washing the machine, will get water past that seal and into the controller, and no warranty covers it. Wipe it down instead.
20 kg is a two-handed lift for most people, not a one-handed one. If it has to go on a bus rack or up stairs daily, come and pick it up in the shop first.
The Dualtron Dolphin Electric Scooter brings the Dualtron experience into a much lighter and more commuter-friendly format. Instead of chasing extreme speed or oversized dual-motor performance, the Dolphin focuses on portability, low-maintenance hardware, smart connectivity, and everyday urban comfort.
With a single 450W motor, compact folding frame, dual drum brakes, smart EY1 display, NFC unlocking, app connectivity, and a weight starting at approximately 19 kg, the Dolphin is one of the most approachable ways to enter the Dualtron lineup.
The current Dualtron Dolphin uses a single 450W nominal hub motor capable of up to 900W peak power.
Dualtron lists a maximum speed of approximately 35 km/h, giving the Dolphin useful performance for city commuting without moving into the higher speeds and added complexity of Dualtron’s larger performance scooters.
The single-motor drivetrain also keeps power consumption, overall weight, and maintenance requirements lower—an important advantage for riders whose priority is regular transportation rather than aggressive recreational riding.
The current Dolphin family is available with 36V 7.8Ah, 12Ah, and 15Ah battery configurations.
Dualtron’s current distributor specifications list approximately:
16 km maximum range for the 7.8Ah version
25 km maximum range for the 12Ah version
30 km maximum range for the 15Ah version
These figures are manufacturer ratings and will vary with rider weight, speed, terrain, temperature, wind, tire pressure, and riding style.
For buyers, this creates a useful choice: smaller batteries keep purchase cost and weight lower, while the 15Ah configuration is better suited to riders who regularly travel farther between charges.
The Dolphin includes a suspension system designed to reduce vibration and impacts from everyday urban surfaces.
That is significant because many scooters in this weight class sacrifice suspension entirely to remain portable. The Dolphin instead tries to preserve a more comfortable ride while keeping the chassis compact enough for regular storage and transport.
For commuters dealing with cracked pavement, road seams, and uneven bike paths, that added ride comfort can be more useful than simply having a higher maximum speed.
The latest 15Ah Dolphin configuration combines a front tubeless self-repair tire with a solid rear tire.
This mixed setup is designed to balance comfort and maintenance: the pneumatic front tire provides cushioning and grip, while the solid rear tire reduces the risk of rear flats around the motor wheel.
For riders using their scooter frequently, especially for commuting, minimizing puncture-related downtime can be a meaningful ownership advantage.
The Dolphin uses front and rear mechanical drum brakes, supported by electronic braking through the rear motor.
Drum brakes are enclosed and generally require less routine maintenance than exposed disc systems, making them particularly suitable for a scooter intended for repeat daily use.
The electronic braking system adds controlled deceleration and can recover a small amount of energy during slowing.
One of the Dolphin’s more interesting features is the EY1 Smart Display.
The display supports Bluetooth connectivity, NFC unlocking, and real-time monitoring of information such as speed, battery level, and fault diagnostics.
Through the Dualtron App, riders can also access supported scooter settings and riding-mode adjustments from a smartphone.
For an entry-level Dualtron, this gives the Dolphin a surprisingly modern software layer rather than relying only on a basic fixed display.
NFC access allows riders to unlock the scooter using an authorized NFC credential, while the connected interface also supports password-based security functions.
That makes the Dolphin particularly convenient for everyday use: smart access is integrated into the scooter itself rather than depending entirely on an aftermarket lock or conventional ignition key.
A physical lock is still advisable whenever the scooter is left unattended in public.
The Dolphin includes a front LED headlight, rear lighting, turn indicators, and side reflective elements.
Integrated turn signals are especially useful during urban commuting, where clearly communicating turns can be difficult when riders need both hands on the handlebars.
The lighting package is designed around visibility without adding bulky external components to the compact chassis.
The current Dolphin is rated IPX5, providing protection against splashes and typical wet-weather exposure.
The EY1 display itself is also listed with IPX5 protection.
That makes the Dolphin more suitable for regular outdoor commuting than scooters with minimal weather protection, although water resistance should never be treated as full waterproofing or permission for submersion.
Portability is where the Dolphin separates itself most clearly from much of the Dualtron lineup.
Depending on battery size, current official-distributor figures list approximately:
19 kg for the 7.8Ah model
20 kg for the 12Ah model
21 kg for the 15Ah model
All versions support riders up to 100 kg.
The folding stem and handlebar design helps reduce the scooter’s footprint for storage in an apartment, office, or vehicle.
Compared with 40–80 kg Dualtron performance scooters, this is an entirely different ownership experience.
The Dolphin should not be viewed as a smaller alternative to the Storm, Achilleus, or X LTD in terms of outright performance. Those scooters are designed for high speeds, long-distance performance riding, and much larger power systems.
The Dolphin instead makes sense for riders who specifically want Dualtron engineering and smart features in a compact commuter.
Its lower power, smaller battery, and lighter chassis are limitations if maximum performance is the goal—but advantages if the scooter needs to be stored indoors, transported regularly, or used primarily for city travel.
The Dualtron Dolphin Electric Scooter is best suited to riders who prioritize portability, easy ownership, low-maintenance braking, connected features, and practical city performance.
It is a particularly good fit for:
short-to-medium daily commutes,
apartment or office storage,
riders who occasionally need to lift or transport their scooter,
beginners who want a more refined scooter without extreme performance,
and existing Dualtron fans looking for a lighter everyday option.
For riders searching for a Dualtron Dolphin Electric Scooter in Vancouver, the Dolphin offers a smart balance of compact dimensions, useful performance, app connectivity, NFC security, suspension, and easy everyday handling.

Unedited reviews from riders across the Lower Mainland — and a few who crossed the border just to see us.
I drove all the way from Seattle to bring my daughter's scooter to ProMechBC and I could not be more pleased with both the repairs and the customer service. I will definitely be bringing the scooter North of the border when it needs some love.
Recently had an accident with my Apollo Go — luckily nothing major was damaged, but it still needed some repair and replacement parts. Service was great, and I got my scooter back within a week. :D
The service was incredibly fast, professional and efficient — they fixed my scooter wheel quickly and the quality of the repair was outstanding. Honest, reliable, professional and fast.
