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.

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.

DYU C3: 270 Watt-Hours, and 34 km Is 7.9 Wh per km
DYU's UK product page for the C3 prints a 250-watt motor, a 36-volt 7.5-amp-hour pack, 25 km/h, 20 kg, and 34 km of pedal assist. Thirty-six times 7.5 is 270 watt-hours. Two hundred seventy divided by 34 is 7.9 watt-hours a kilometer, or 12.8 watt-hours a mile. The same sheet's battery block prints a rated power of 350 watts. A reseller sentence says the 250-watt motor can reach 500. Those are three numbers. The fold does not get shorter: open and folded length are both 1,260 mm. This desk did not ride it.

ALSO TM-B: At 4 Percent the Assist Was Gone
Electrek, 29 October 2026, reports that Launch Edition owner Aaron Draczynski ran an ALSO TM-B down on purpose. From 23 percent to 13, the max assist fell from level 8 to 5. At 4 percent the assist was gone and the bike shifted by itself. He called the last state Infinite Turtle Mode: flat ground felt like fourth gear, a hill like seventh or eighth. Left near 70 percent, the bike read 40 that evening and 18 the next day, then asked him to install a battery that was already in. Seventy minus 18 is 52 percentage points. This desk does not have the watt-hours, so that is not a drain in watt-hours. There is no chain from the pedals to the wheel.

Coopop Bobber: 4,000 Watts Rated, and 120 km Is 30 Wh per km
Coopop lists the Bobber at €4,490 and calls it an e-moped, not an e-bike. The comparison table prints 4,000 watts, 45 km/h, 90 kg, up to 120 km, and a 72-volt 50-amp-hour LG pack. Seventy-two times 50 is 3,600 watt-hours. Three thousand six hundred divided by 120 is 30 watt-hours a kilometer. A Coopop ride film says the motor peaks at 8 kW. The table does not. New Atlas, 27 October 2026, turned 120 km into 75 miles and 90 kg into less than 200 pounds. This desk did not ride it.

Lectric XP Lite3: 80 Miles Is 8.4 Wh, and the Loop Was 44.6
Lectric's XP Lite3 starts at $799. The motor on the long-range page is a 300-watt Stealth M24 rear hub, 819 watts peak, 28 newton-meters. The base pack is 48 volts and 7.8 amp-hours, which is 374 watt-hours. The long-range pack is 14 amp-hours, 672 watt-hours. Lectric claims up to 80 miles on that larger pack. Electric Bike Report, 27 October 2026, rode the $999 bike 44.57 miles in the lowest assist and 25.78 in the highest. Six hundred seventy-two divided by 80 is 8.4 watt-hours a mile. Divided by 44.57 it is 15.1. The white long-range cart says it ships the week of 9 November. This desk did not ride it.

Bosch Active Line Plus: 60 Nm, and the 600 Watts Did Not Move
Bosch’s new Active Line Plus is the BDU344Y. The EU product page prints 60 Nm, 600 watts, 340 percent support, 250 watts continuous, and 2.7 kg. The motor it replaces, the BDU334Y, already printed 600 watts, 340 percent, 250 watts, and 50 Nm at 3.2 kg. The new 70 rpm cell is 366.5 watts. That is 50 Nm at 70 rpm, not 60.

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.

Himoto Black Warrior: 1,104 Watt-Hours, and the Motor Watts Say Other
The iron-frame Himoto Black Warrior is an OWAY model SK-1. The factory card prints 48 volts and 23 amp-hours, and the watt-hour box says 1,104. Forty-eight times 23 is 1,104. Motor watts and top speed both say Other. NFC is in the title. It is not in the attribute table. A UK shop’s aluminum 1,500-watt bike, and a 60-volt 45-amp-hour bike, use the same name.
OCT 25, 2026
Segway Xyber Air: 717 Watt-Hours, and 1.3 Amps Is Not a 7-Hour Charge
Segway’s Xyber Air is $1,999.99, and the store button this desk opened on 23 October 2026 only takes an email until 27 October. The spec block says a 750-watt rated hub, 80 newton-meters, a 48-volt 717-watt-hour pack, and Class 2 by default. The same block says a 1.3-amp charger and about 7 hours. Forty-eight times 1.3 is 62 watts. Seven hundred seventeen divided by 62 is about 11.5 hours, not 7.

VOMO CS20: 540 Watt-Hours, and the Brand Table Says 27.5, Not 28
VOMO’s CS20 product page, opened 22 October 2026, is out of stock at $726 from $1,452. The table says 36 volts, 15 amp-hours, a 250-watt motor, 25 km/h, a steel frame, and a 27.5-by-1.95 tire. Thirty-six times 15 is 540 watt-hours. A Dutch shop card says 28 inch. A Danish card says 48 volts, 26-by-1.75, and 90 newton-meters. This is not the ESTRAPZ CS20.

Priority E-Sauce: $2,199, 720 Watt-Hours, and a Class 2 That Opens
Priority’s E-Sauce page, read 20 October 2026, is $2,199. A 750-watt rear hub, a printed 720 watt-hours, 59 pounds, a throttle, and a Gates belt. It ships Class 2 at 20 mph. Pedal assist can open to 28. Range is 20 to 60 miles. The page does not print volts. Not the $799 pedal Sauce.
OCT 20, 2026
Duotts C29 Pro: 720 Watt-Hours, and 25 or 52 km/h
Duotts’s own C29 page, read 17 October 2026, sells the C29 Pro. The single-battery price is €819, from €1,149. The pack is 48 volts and 15 amp-hours. Forty-eight times 15 is 720 watt-hours. The cart does not print that watt-hour. An EU motor cell is 250 watts and 25 km/h. An international cell is 750 watts, 45 km/h on the M and 52 km/h on the L. Range on the same page is 80 to 100 km, up to 90 km at 75 kg, and 50 to 60 km with the motor alone. Torque is 65 newton-meters. The sensor is a speed sensor. Weight is 25.3 kg, 25.5 kg, and 26.5 kg. No public film titled C29 Pro turned up.
OCT 17, 2026
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.

A Walmart business listing for the basket bike is $159.99 from $369.99, with a 500-watt peak, a 36-volt 12-amp-hour pack labeled 432 watt-hours, and 35 miles. Another Walmart card is $189.99 from $369.99 and puts 350 watts, a 500-watt peak, 20 miles, and 35 miles in the same title. Thirty-six times 12 is 432. No public film of this name turned up.

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. Notebookcheck, 14 October, printed 347 watt-hours. The motor is a 500-watt rear hub with an 864-watt peak and 61 newton-meters. Lectric says Class 1, 2, or 3, and also prints a thumb throttle and 28 mph.

Ari Shafer HP: Class 3 on the Cart, 1.9 kg or 1.92
Ari’s Shafer HP page, opened 13 October 2026, lists a Class 3 gravel bike that assists to 28 mph. The motor is a TQ HPR60, 60 newton-meters, and 350 watts, at 1.9 kilograms. 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.

Cargo E-Bikes: 200 Kilograms Is Not 381 Pounds
A Tern GSD is 200 kilograms gross, rider plus bike plus cargo. Times 2.2, that is 440 pounds. Wirecutter, in July 2026, said 381 pounds in all. A rider’s film says 400. A front box, a compact longtail, and a trike are not that number, and none of them is a car.

E-Bike Range: How Far Can You Actually Ride?
A brochure mile is not a loop. On the Lectric XP4’s 500 watt-hour pack, the claim is 50 miles and Outdoor Gear Lab’s throttle loop was 19.1. Five hundred divided by 19.1 is about 26.2 watt-hours a mile. Do not average that with an Eco ride.

SEP 29, 2026
Aventon Level 4 REC vs Level 4 ADV
Same name. The REC is the $1,999 hub that ships with a throttle. The ADV is the $2,799 mid-drive that does not. Both print 36V and 20Ah. The labels say 733Wh and 800Wh. Thirty-six times 20 is 720.

Hub Motor Torque: Why 45 Nm Is Not 65
Newton-meters at a hub are measured at the axle. Newton-meters at a mid-drive are measured at the crank, then multiplied by the gear. Bosch’s 45-equals-65 line is a feel claim.
