EBOX V3 60R Review: The Sweet Spot of the V3 Range?
The EBOX V3 60R is the performance sweet spot of the EBOX V3 range, combining a 5.2kW peak motor, 60V 26Ah battery and up to 53mph performance with a compact 14/12-inch chassis.
It is noticeably stronger than the standard V3 60, without taking the full step up to the more aggressive 72V V3 72RS.
Quick Answer
Who Should Buy the EBOX V3 60R?
Choose the V3 60R if you want strong acceleration, useful battery capacity and proper off-road performance without automatically jumping to the flagship 72RS.
Best for: confident and experienced teenage riders, smaller adults and riders moving up from lower-powered electric bikes.
Why the EBOX V3 60R Stands Out
The V3 60R sits between the more affordable V3 60 and the flagship V3 72RS. That middle position is exactly what makes it such a strong choice.
You get the upgraded 60V 26Ah battery, an 80A Fardriver controller and sharper power delivery than the standard V3 60. However, it remains less extreme and less expensive than the 72RS.
Rider’s View
My Take as a British MX Rider
The biggest mistake is assuming that the flagship bike is automatically the best choice. The 60R already has more than enough power for most riders. It feels properly quick, but its compact chassis makes it easier to control and move around than many larger electric bikes. Unless you genuinely need the extra hit of the 72RS, this is the V3 I would look at first.

Who Is the EBOX V3 60R Best For?
This is not a small children’s balance bike or a sensible choice for a complete beginner. It is a high-performance off-road machine intended for riders with suitable ability, maturity and previous riding experience.
- Confident teenage riders progressing from smaller electric bikes
- Riders who have outgrown bikes such as the Revvi 18 or Revvi 20
- Smaller adults wanting a compact off-road electric bike
- Experienced riders wanting more performance than the V3 60
- Anyone wanting a strong balance of performance, range and value
Rider suitability: Age alone should not be used to select this bike. Rider height, inside-leg measurement, strength, experience and maturity must all be considered. Responsible adult supervision and suitable protective equipment are essential.
Private land only: The EBOX V3 60R is not road legal. It must only be used on suitable private land with the landowner’s permission. Always wear an approved helmet and appropriate protective riding equipment.
Where Does the V3 60R Fit in the Range?
| Model | Position | Best For |
|---|---|---|
| EBOX V3 60 | Entry V3 | The easiest step into the V3 range |
| EBOX V3 60R | Performance sweet spot | Best balance of power, range and control |
| EBOX V3 72RS | Flagship V3 | Maximum V3 performance |
The V3 60 is the easier entry point. The 72RS is for riders specifically wanting the flagship 72V setup. Between them, the 60R delivers the strongest all-round balance for most experienced riders.
Compare V3 60R vs 72RSEBOX V3 60R vs Talaria XXX
The V3 60R is a strong alternative for riders considering a Talaria XXX but wanting something lower and more compact.
Its 14-inch front and 12-inch rear wheels, combined with a seat height of around 650mm, create a noticeably smaller riding position than a full-size e-moto. That can make it easier for shorter riders to hold, turn and move around.
- Compact 14/12-inch wheel platform
- Lower and more manageable riding position
- Strong 60V powertrain
- More suitable for many shorter riders
- Competitive price for the level of performance
The correct choice still depends on rider size, experience and intended use—not speed figures alone.
