GSPACE Mars Eco Review: 7 Powerful Features That Redefine Single-Motor Scooters
If you’re looking for a scooter that feels like a dual motor but technically isn’t, meet the GSPACE Mars Ecoโa single-motor scooter that punches way above its class. As someone whoโs tested over 200 electric scooters across every price and power tier, I can confidently say: this thing is a wild card.
It may look like it’s sneaking into the dual-motor club with a fake ID, but it’s not faking anything where it counts. With a 72V 26Ah battery, a full-size frame, serious suspension, and a curb weight tipping the scales at 115 lbs, it has the presence of a heavy-duty commuter or even a sport-level scooter. Yet, it rocks just one rear 2000W motor. So yeahโwhen I first heard that, I was like, โWaitโฆ what?โ
But after actually riding the Mars Eco, I stopped caring that it only had one motor. Because hereโs the truth: it rides like a beast.

Top Speed: Record-Breaking for a Single Motor
GSPACE claims this thing can hit 50 mph. In our back-to-back tests, we clocked a verified top speed of 45.3 mph, making it the fastest single-motor scooter we’ve ever tested at Electric Scooter Guide. For comparison, that’s dual-motor territory.
Acceleration Breakdown:
- 0 to 15 mph: 2.42 seconds
- Top speed: 45.3 mph
- Hill climb (36ft, 10% grade): 7.97 seconds
- 330 ft sprint: 10.92 seconds
It doesnโt launch like a drag racer, but it delivers linear power that keeps climbingโperfect for urban riding, hill climbing, and surprisingly smooth highway runs.

Suspension & Stability: Comfort Over Chaos
With multi-link rear suspension and plush 11×3โ hybrid tires, the Mars Eco absolutely devours potholes, cracks, and uneven pavement. The suspension feels lifted straight from more expensive dual-motor modelsโand in practice, itโs buttery smooth.
Add that 115-pound curb weight into the mix, and youโve got a scooter that plants itself to the roadโeven when braking or cornering hard.
Braking Power: Dual Nutt Hydraulics That Mean Business
The dual Nutt hydraulic brakes stop the Mars Eco from 15 mph to 0 in just 2.8 seconds. Thatโs elite-level braking. Combined with the scooter’s weight and suspension, it makes emergency stops feel controlled and safe.
Battery & Range
- Battery: 72V 26Ah lithium
- Charger: 84V 6A (included)
- Charge time: ~4.5 hours
- Tested range: 25.85 miles in highest mode, 235 lb rider
Now, if you’re lighter or use lower modes, youโll definitely stretch that range out. But for a scooter this powerful and heavy, mid-20s in real-world miles is impressive.

Safety Features: Way Above Average
This scooter is loaded with safety tech:
- BMS (Battery Management System)
- Dual fuses
- Thermal silicone pads
- Integrated micro fire extinguisher
- Smart heat release valves
Iโve seen a lot of โpremiumโ scooters that donโt even come close to this level of fail-safes.
Cockpit & Controls

The TFT display is bright, full-color, and loaded with info: speed, time, battery voltage, trip dataโyou name it. The vertical thumb throttle is easily one of the smoothest Iโve used. And it supports menu-based tuning for:
- Top speed (unlock 100%)
- Launch strength
- Brake settings
- Start modes
Youโll want to go into the settings when you first unbox it to unlock the full power. Just press and hold the M button for 5 seconds to dive in.
Bonus: NFC Key (With a Caveat)
Itโs got a nifty NFC key lock, but fair warningโif the key accidentally touches the reader while riding, it can shut off. Ask me how I found out.
Ergonomics & Ride Feel
One small gripe: the handlebar height is low for taller riders (Iโm 6โ1โ and had to lean down slightly). But GSPACE Mars Eco offers handlebar extensions, which help solve this issue easily.
Otherwise, the deck is spacious, the stem is dual-fork and beefy, and the whole ride experience is just… dialed in. Itโs one of the most comfortable and confidence-inspiring scooters Iโve ridden in years.

Final Thoughts: Should You Buy the GSPACE Mars Eco?
Letโs get real: at a retail price of $2,350 (with pre-order discounts available), you could get a dual-motor scooter. Thatโs the elephant in the room.
But hereโs what separates the Mars Eco:
It doesnโt need the second motor.
It gives you 90% of the performance, better range efficiency, and less complexity to maintainโwhile delivering a premium, stable ride that feels like it belongs in a whole other class.
If youโre the kind of rider who blasts around in single motor mode 90% of the time anyway (like I do), youโll love this scooter. It doesnโt try to be a drag racer. It just nails comfort, control, and confidence.
And honestly? Iโm good with that.
Pros:
- Fastest single motor scooter tested (45.3 mph)
- Plush suspension and big tires = amazing comfort
- Excellent hill climbing
- Dual hydraulic brakes = powerful and safe
- Loaded with real safety features
- Large deck, quality build
Cons:
- Heavy (115 lbs)
- Handlebar too low for taller riders
- Priced near dual-motor competitors

If you’re after a premium single motor scooter that performs like a dualโwithout the twitchy throttle or jerky power deliveryโthe GSPACE Mars Eco might be your perfect match.
