Test Silence S01 2025: Introduction, Positioning and Rivals
The silence S01 is a valid electric scooter to drive with the driver’s license B, and has been in the market since last year 2020 (and that we tested at the time). He has taken advantage of the entire experience of his brother, the S02, which is mainly used as a motorcycle service, to erect as one of the zero -selling scooters best -selling emissions in recent years.
As we have told you previously, one of the main incentives of this Silence S01 is its battery subscription modality. This service allows you to reduce the final price and eliminates the concern of the battery charge, since the brand owned by the Energy Acciona has more than 165 battery exchange stations distributed throughout Spain. The process is really simple through its app, And in just a few minutes, you can have a new battery. With this service, the Silence S01 can be acquired from 3,950 euros.
For this 2025, Silence has heard the pleas of the users of the S01, and has applied changes in areas such as the maximum speed or the cycle part to make this electric scooter, a more effective, and also comfortable tool; Not only to move inside the city, but also to circulate with greater security in the outskirts.
The exchange of batteries is one of the strengths of Silence S01 with respect to its rivals, which do not have this service. With everything and with that, competition begins to be increasingly numerous: Rieju E-City (€ 3,600), Riejuk Nuuk Urban 6 (€ 8,530), BMW CE02 (€ 8,400), BMW CE04 (€ 12.075), Yamaha Neos (€ 2,999) or Piaggio 1 Active (€ 3,599).
Test Silence S01 2025: Technical characteristics and equipment
The silence S01 2025 maintains intact much of the technical specifications of its predecessor. For example, the engine continues to develop around 10 hp of nominal power, while the peak power goes to 15 hp to coincide with the limit marked by card B. These are benefits similar to those of a 125cc scooter; but with the advantage of the instant par that offers an electric vehicle without gearbox (or drive in the case of scooters).
However, a series of updates in this zero emissions block have allowed to extend the speed ceiling of the silence S01 2025. It is now capable of reaching the real 110 km/h (120 km/h marker). This allows you to circulate with more self -hut and outskirts of the outskirts. By electronics, it has three driving modes, Eco, City and Sport, while the battery promises an autonomy of up to 133 km.
The chassis maintains its structure of steel tubes, although it is now surrounded by an improved rear suspension. As standard, it allows the adjustment in the preload and the extension of the dock, which will allow it to be to the taste of users of very diverse size. For its part, the front train maintains a conventional telescopic fork without regulation. In the case of the S01+, a Öhlins mono -aamortiguer is added with triple track adjustment (as well as Pirelli Angel Scooter tires and pills and pills signed by the Galfer specialist).
The Silence S01 2025 Declera thanks to a combined braking system, which is based on a double 260 mm disco in front and a single 240 mm disc. The 15 ″ and 14 »wheels in front and behind, are shoes with CST tires.
The least complexity of the electric motor allows you to obtain a generous space under the seat. In this case, two integral helmets enter without any difficulty. In addition, an optional trunk can be added to further increase the load capabilities of this Silence S01 2025.
The seat height is 805 mm. Despite my 170 cm tall, I am able to reach both feet to the ground, although I give me more security to support a single foot with more surface. However, this is not any problem, since the 111 kg, to which we must add the 41 kg that weighs the battery, make the silence S01 2025 a scooter with a contained weight and housed in the lower part of the set. This helps lower the center of gravity and affects positively on its dynamic behavior.
Instrumentation is the point to improve. With the market full of models with color screens, the silence S01 2025 still has a negative LCD display. It is also true that an LCD consumes much less than a screen to use. Of course, it has a lot of information, and a distribution of this more than correct. It even shows the use of the regenerative braking system. It also has a reverse mode to facilitate the maneuvers in standing.
Test Silence S01 2025: How’s the silence S01
The changes are not apparent as soon as they look at the silence S01 2025. In fact, you have to carefully fixed in the rear monkey, while the rest become evident. Due to the complicated meteorology that we have lived in Madrid days, the test had to be notably shortened, although it was enough for a first contact.
As in the previous model, just making contact, the scooter receives you with the City mode. It is the intermediate mode, which applies the power linear to maintain that commitment between performance and autonomy. It is the most rational way to move around the city, with quite progressive accelerations.
To get the first at traffic lights, Sport mode is adequate. Here the entire power without ambiguity is displayed at the expense of ‘eating’ the battery. With so much water on the road, its use could become dangerous due to reactivity in gas touch. For this reason, its use is circumstantial: to get out of a traffic light quickly or in lane changes. For its part, the Eco mode is designed only to save battery. To add those necessary kilometers when autonomy is close to zero.
The electric motor philosophy fits perfectly in displacements by city. The absence of noise or vibrations allows you to roll with comfort among traffic. Of course, the angle of rotation is still somewhat short, which sometimes can complicate the maneuver to pass between traffic during traffic jams.
On highway, those real 110 km/h are a real life insurance against vehicles that until then passed at a speed that could be dangerous. Now it is a totally capable vehicle on the highway, to which adds the possibility of regulating the rear suspension so that it is to taste.
In my case, I was able to lower the firmness to gain comfort when filtering irregularities. The brakes fulfill, although it is true that CST tires, especially wet, do not transmit total entrusted trust. Better look at other options when changing them.
In short, the silence S01 2025 has taken note of the demands of the users to be a more effective displacement tool both inside and outside the city. To this is added the possibility of lowering the price thanks to the subscription battery modality (and the Moves) so as not to have to worry about recharge or autonomy.
If your intention is to go from point A to point B in city, without the need to travel a large amount of kilometers, it is an option to take into account.
