New models, first looks, and what changed besides the paint.
XP4 750 Limited: $1,399, and $2,130 Is the Kit
Lectric's XP4 750 Limited Editions, opened 2 November 2026, are District, Jubilee, and Ridge at $1,399. That is $100 over the $1,299 XP4 750. The black step-thru cart strikes through $2,130. The accessory rows on that cart add to $731, and $1,399 plus $731 is $2,130. The motor card is still 750 watts, a 1,310-watt peak, and 48 volts times 17.5 amp-hours, which is 840 watt-hours. The product chip says up to 85 miles. A series tile says 80. Eighty-five on 840 is 9.9 watt-hours a mile. Outdoor Gear Lab's loop on the 750 was 36.7 miles. This desk did not ride the limited editions.

Yamaha NMAX E: 104 km Is 33.65 Wh per km
Yamaha's 4 November 2026 release puts the NMAX E at EICMA with a fixed 3.5 kWh battery and 104 km in WMTC mode. Three thousand five hundred watt-hours divided by 104 is 33.65 watt-hours a kilometer, about 54.2 watt-hours a mile. EICMA adds 7.5 kW, 33.3 Nm, an 800-watt charger, and a 5 kWh option that Yamaha's release does not print. The other scooter on that release, the XENTER E, is 108 km on the same 3.5 kWh. Gazzetta's headline used 108 on the NMAX. The body of that story says 104. No price. European sales are written as spring 2027. This desk did not ride it.

Zero Project Ventura: 75 Miles and 93 Are Not One Claim
Gear Patrol's 4 November line, Zero's approachable new street moto, is Project Ventura. The show pages agree on more than 20 kW, 17-inch street wheels, ABS, an onboard Level 2 charger, and summer 2027. They do not agree on range. Electrek and Motorcycle News print about 93 miles, which is 150 km. Gear Patrol, TechRadar, and EVXL print 75 miles. Ninety-three minus 75 is 18. Those are not a unit conversion. No battery capacity was printed, so there is no watt-hour per mile. A target under $8,000 and a target under £8,000 are not the same ceiling. This desk did not ride it.

ReBake Abler: 4 kWh and 160 km Is 25 Wh/km
ReBake showed the Abler at EICMA on 3 November 2026. The Abler45 is an L1e-B moped: 4 kW nominal, 5.12 kW peak, 45 km/h, from €3,990 with one 2 kWh pack. The Abler80 is the L3e-A1: 6.14 kW nominal, 7.68 kW peak, over 80 km/h, from €4,990 with two packs. Two packs are 4 kWh. Four thousand watt-hours divided by the 45's 160 km city claim is 25 watt-hours a kilometer. The one-pack claims are exactly half. The studio box in the photograph says 5.8 kW. The table says 5.12. This desk did not ride it.

Trek Marlin+ 6 Gen 2: $2,999, and the Shelf Still Says 50 Nm
Electrek, 29 October 2026, says the Marlin+ 6 Gen 2 is the first North American bike on Bosch's new Active Line Plus, at $2,999, 60 Nm, 600 watts, Class 1, assist to 20 mph. The Trek family page this desk opened the same week still starts at $2,499.99 and prints 50 Nm and a 400 Wh pack. Two thousand nine hundred ninety-nine minus $2,499.99 is $499.01. The 600-watt peak did not move. A 720 Wh battery and a 115-mile claim in that Electrek piece are a Bosch touring sentence. Electrek says Trek has not confirmed that pack on this bike.

E-Motiv Demo 1: Two Gears, No Price, Not for Sale
E-Motiv Shift Systems will show Demo 1 at EICMA from 3 to 8 November 2026. It is an electric motorcycle demonstrator with two gears, built so a shift does not cut torque. Electrek, 28 October 2026, prints a £1 million UK project with BSA, the University of Bath, and IAAPS. The design house is Envisage. The page prints no kilowatts, no top speed, no weight, and no price. Road testing is early 2027. It is not a Class 1, 2, or 3 bicycle, and it is not in a shop.

Amflow TL and PR: Same 800 Watt-Hours, 172 km and 158 km
Amflow's 26 October 2026 release puts the TL Carbon on sale globally and the PR Carbon in the US. The TL is $3,899 and €3,499. The PR is $4,999. The PR Pro is $6,799. All three use an 800 Wh pack. The TL's Eco lab is 172 km. The PR's lab, same rider and same 21 km/h, is 158 km. The TL news note prints 1,100 watts of peak. The spec table does not.

Kingbull Expedition: 1,512 Watt-Hours, and a Throttle to 28
Outdoor Sports Wire, 16 October 2026, is Kingbull’s launch note. The Expedition is $1,199. The pack is 48 volts and 31.5 amp-hours. Forty-eight times 31.5 is 1,512, and the cart prints 1,512 watt-hours. The range claim is 120 miles in ideal conditions. The motor is a 750-watt hub with a 1,300-watt peak, and the controller is 48 volts at 22 amps, which is 1,056 watts. A twist throttle and speed modes through 28 mph are both on the sheet. That is not a Class 2 and it is not a Class 3. No newton-meters. No rear-travel number. No public film turned up.

Spiny 2: $349 on Kickstarter. The 56 Miles Is 4.75 Watt-Hours a Mile.
Electrek, Micah Toll, 16 October 2026, has not ridden the Spiny 2. It is a friction-drive unit on Kickstarter, with deliveries estimated for April 2027. The pledge this desk read is $349, marked as $211 off, and an extended-range bundle at $479. The pack is 266 watt-hours. The claim is 56 miles. Two hundred sixty-six divided by 56 is 4.75 watt-hours a mile. Toll says a normal rider will not see that. The 3 seconds is the click-on, after the mount and the sensors are already on the bike. The September claims, 25 volts and 35 newton-meters, are still untested.

Scott E-Ville: €5,399 or €5,299, and the CX Stops at 100 Nm
Two 15 October 2026 stories, and no Scott product page this desk could open. BIKE prints the E-Ville 10 SUV at €5,399 and the E-Ville 20 at €4,599. BikeRadar prints €5,299 and €4,499, which is £4,999 and £4,299. The gap on each bike is €100. Both call the motor a Bosch Performance Line CX at up to 100 newton-meters. That is not the 120 on Bosch’s 2026 sheet. No dated public film turned up.

Lectric XPress Lite: 374 Wh on the Cart, 347 in the Story
Lectric’s pine-green cart, opened 15 October 2026, is $1,099. The pack line is 48 volts, 7.8 amp-hours, and 374 watt-hours. Forty-eight times 7.8 is 374.4.

Cube’s own page for the Stereo Hybrid ONE77 HPC TM 800, article 103400, prints a Bosch CX, an 800 watt-hour PowerTube, 170 millimeters at both ends, and a Fox 38 with a Float X2. It does not print a newton-meter or a price. Notebookcheck, 15 October 2026, prints 120 newton-meters, €6,199, and a RockShox Zeb with a Vivid shock. Idealo prints 100 newton-meters, 250 watts, and 400 percent.

Alutech ePelmo X1P: €10,799.95 Today. The Charge Times Disagree.
Alutech’s MX Launch Edition URL, indexed 15 October 2026, is titled €10,799.95, with €11,999.95 as the old price. The early-bird line runs through today, inclusive. The pack on that index is a Gobao BT750FS, 750 watt-hours, 50.4 volts. The motor line is 150 newton-meters and 1,500 watts. One charge row says 0–50 percent in 16 minutes. A 0–80 percent in 28 minutes is not in the index this desk could read. The September sheet this page was built from said 10–80 percent in 20 minutes and printed no price.

BikeRumor the same day prints 1.92 kilograms and calls the 350 watts a peak. The pack is 360 watt-hours. Sport is $4,899. An older pre-order page still says the Team build is a $10,499 target.

Torque is not printed. eMTB Magazine prices the Obscur Enyx from €12,500. Pinkbike leaves that price blank. The Alutech ePelmo GD8 is €11,499 including tax, and it is not the Gobao X1P.
OCT 9, 2026
Lemmo 3: 960 Watt-Hours, and 180 Kilometers Is Not 110 Miles
Lemmo’s page lists a longtail with a 960 watt-hour pack, a US rating of 750 watts, and a 1,200-watt peak. The range tile says 180 kilometers and 110 miles. One hundred eighty kilometers is 112 miles.
