Fiido, Engwe, Samebike, Eleglide, Lankeleisi, Bezior, Himo... these are just a few of the electric bike manufacturers that offer a wide variety of models. Since the choice is wide, it becomes more and more difficult to decide. Which model is best? Which one is worth the price? To make life a little easier - NiuxTech has selected the most popular and best-selling models of the 2023 season under €1000 and compiled useful comparison tables!
The most popular 20" e-bikes
FIIDO D4S Pro - the most popular and best-selling model in Lithuania! Exclusive features of this e-mail the advantages of the bike: extremely light, weighs only 18.5kg (competitors ~24-28kg), has a 418Wh battery, 250W motor, can reach a speed of up to 30km/h* and the most important thing is that it costs only €630. After using the APVA compensation, €500 can be recovered, which means that only €130 remains to be paid out of your pocket.
ADO A20+ the electric bike costs a bit more, ~ €750, but has several advantages over the Fiido D4s Pro. First of all, it is a removable battery. It is convenient in such cases if you can leave the bike locked in the stairwell/basement and take the battery home with you to charge. Secondly, the ADO A20+ has shock absorbers in the front and wider tires, so it drives a bit more comfortably and smoothly.
SAMEBIKE 20LVXD30 - in terms of its parameters, it looks the most serious due to a more powerful 350W motor and a larger 48V 10.4Ah battery. Max. the developed speed reaches 35 km/h, and the driving distance can reach about 50 km in hybrid mode. Also, this model has a trunk on which you can install a seat for a child or put on a travel bag.
The most popular 20" Fat Tire e-bikes
ENGWE EP2 Pro - on paper, this model looks like a TOP1 price/quality choice. Even 750W power motor (960W peak), more capacious 625Wh battery, up to 40-45km/h developed max. speed. It has front shock absorbers, a trunk and a removable battery. During NiuxTech testing, the quality turned out to be just as solid: serious metal fenders, metal pedals. Only the brakes could still be hydraulic instead of mechanical.
FIIDO M1 Pro - another model that we had to try ourselves. And to be honest, it left a really good impression. It should be noted right away that this e-mail the bike is much lighter than the others (only ~25kg), has a sufficiently powerful 500W motor, 615Wh battery, shock absorbers in the front and back. Fiido M1 Pro also has wheels with spokes, so if you need to straighten up, it is much easier to do so.
SAMEBIKE XWLX09 - this model is very similar in design to the ENGWE EP2 Pro and basically has the only advantage, which is the rear shock absorber. Apart from that, it has a 500W motor, a slightly smaller 500Wh battery, a sturdy trunk and costs about €940. It may not be the best-selling model, but it is definitely worth paying attention to for its price.
The most popular 26" e-bikes
ENGWE P26 - a model with a classic design, which is distinguished by a larger 610Wh battery, a 250W motor, and when "unlocked" it can reach a speed of up to 35km/h. This model has an easily and conveniently removable battery, but due to this design, the electric bike is not "foldable" like Bezior or Samebike competitors. Another advantage - the set comes with high-quality mudguards and a solid trunk.
BEZIOR X500 Pro - a sportier, more MTB style e-bike. a bike that has both front and rear shock absorbers, so it will provide a more pleasant and comfortable ride. Of course, you don't need to expect miracles from these shock absorbers, after all, these are budget class models, so the components are accordingly more budget. Apart from that, this model is one of the cheaper alternatives in its class.
SAMEBIKE LO26 II - an updated model with a 750W motor, so that additional power should be felt more when accelerating from a place and going up steeper hills. SAMEBIKE is a fairly popular model in Lithuania as well, even we had to ride with the first generation LO26. Another update is a larger, color 3.5" TFT screen with a USB connection, so it will be possible to charge the phone during the trip.
