Essential
e-scooter300–350 EUR
01
Algupära
Xiaomi vajas mudelit, et jõuda alla 300€ hinnapunkti ja vastata rangematele Euroopa kiiruspiirangutele (nagu Saksamaa 20 km/h piirang). Essential kasutab sama šassii kui 1S, kuid sellel on palju väiksem aku ja tarkvaralised piirangud. 1. põlvkond (2020–praeguseni): Tutvustati kui madalaima taseme eelarvemudelit. Madalam tippkiirus, väiksem aku, kergem kaal.

Verdikt
+Tugevused
- Very light at 12 kg — easiest Xiaomi to carry up stairs and onto public transport
- 3-second fold to ~49 cm height makes it genuinely portable and easy to store
- Dual braking (front E-ABS regenerative + rear mechanical disc) gives a short ~6 m stopping distance
- 8.5" pneumatic tires absorb small bumps far better than the solid tires on cheap rivals
- Affordable entry price (~€300) with proven Xiaomi build quality and Mi Home app support
−Nõrkused
- Tiny 183.6 Wh battery — realistic range is only ~15-20 km, too short for longer commutes
- No suspension at all; rigid frame makes cobblestones and rough pavement uncomfortable
- Weak 250 W motor struggles on hills above ~10° incline and with heavier riders
- 20 km/h top speed feels slow and is hard-limited; unlocking via firmware drains the small battery fast
- No integrated display — only a basic LED light, so speed/battery detail needs the phone app
