Acer has unveiled the Predator ES Storm Pro, a new high-performance electric scooter designed for demanding urban riders. The latest addition to Acer’s growing e-mobility portfolio is aimed at commuters who need more power, stability, and versatility for navigating modern city environments.
Built for longer journeys and mixed-surface routes, the Predator ES Storm Pro combines performance-focused hardware with smart connectivity features to deliver a more capable city-riding experience.
Power and Performance for Urban Riding
The Predator ES Storm Pro is powered by a 500 W rear hub motor, delivering a peak output of up to 1200 W, paired with a 48 V electrical system. This setup enables quick acceleration and consistent performance across varied terrain, including inclines of up to 25%.
Multiple riding modes allow users to fine-tune responsiveness, choosing between efficiency and performance depending on riding conditions and personal preference.
Stability, Safety, and Ride Comfort
Designed for control on uneven or wet roads, the scooter features traction control, 10-inch tubeless pneumatic tyres, and front and rear suspension to improve road contact and rider stability.
Braking is handled by a rear disc brake with eABS, ensuring reliable stopping power in busy urban settings. The foldable aluminium frame balances durability with portability, allowing the scooter to be easily carried over short distances or stored in compact spaces at home, at work, or on public transport. The scooter is also IPX5-rated for water resistance.
Visibility, Lighting, and Tracking Support
RGB lighting elements inspired by the Predator brand enhance visibility while providing clear signalling during braking and turning. Ambient and projector lighting further improve rider presence on the road.
A built-in holder for compatible smart tags allows riders to attach a tracking accessory, helping locate the scooter if misplaced, depending on the tracking system used.
Extended Range and Energy Recovery
The Predator ES Storm Pro offers a riding range of up to 60–65 km on a single charge, making it suitable for extended daily commutes.
Its regenerative braking system (KERS) works alongside the eABS system to recover energy during deceleration and feed it back into the battery, improving overall efficiency.
Smart Connectivity via the Acer eMobility App
The scooter connects to the Acer eMobility app, giving riders access to real-time ride data and vehicle status, including remaining range and battery information.
Users can adjust selected settings through the app, personalise lighting effects, and activate an electronic locking function using a compatible smartphone, adding an extra layer of everyday security.
Price and Availability
The Predator ES Storm Pro will be available across EMEA in Q1 2026, with pricing starting at EUR 629.
Final specifications, pricing, and availability may vary by region. For market-specific information, customers are advised to contact their nearest Acer office via www.acer.com.
