How far can you go on a single battery charge?
One of the most common questions about e-bikes is: how far can you go on a single battery charge? The range depends on many factors, including your riding style and the conditions you ride in. In some cases, a single battery may cover around 40 km, while under optimal conditions, the same battery can take you up to 140 km.

It all depends on your riding style and the conditions you ride in.
The battery stores the electrical energy that powers the motor. The amount of energy it can hold is called capacity. The higher the battery capacity, the farther you can ride with motor assistance. Battery capacity is the main factor affecting the distance you can travel on a single charge. At ECONO, you can choose from batteries with capacities ranging from 520 Wh up to 800 Wh.
Other factors that affect range include:
Level of pedal assistance
Rider weight
Terrain
Air resistance
Air resistance
Road surface
Frequent accelerations
Riding speed
Tire pressure
Bike type and weight
Outside temperature
Battery state of health
Battery condition
Cadence
Time of the year
Motor type
Display of different conditions
The table below shows the different cycling conditions
Optimal conditions | Difficult conditions | |
Cadence | 50 - 70 revolutions per minute | 70 - 90 revolutions per minute |
Total Weight | 90 | 130 |
Drive type and bike | ECONO CITY ebike | ECONO SUV ebike |
Tire type | City - smooth tires | Off-road profile |
The foundation | Road | Muddy tracks and macadam |
Relief | Mostly flat with minor inclines | Bigger slopes |
Wind | No wind | Stronger wind |
Range depending on battery capacity
The graphs below show the range of ECONO batteries in combination with an Bafang M210 central motor and a ECONO CITY ebike.
- COMTRON ELK 520Wh (14.5Ah)
- COMTRON ELK 700Wh (20Ah)
- COMTRON ELK 800Wh (22.3Ah)
Range according to the selection of the level of assistance on the motor
The range of the Econo system is largely dependent on the level of motor assistance. There are five different driving modes to choose from, each of which is described below. The graphic shows their effect on range in favorable conditions and hard conditions.
The graph below shows the range of the bafang M210 with COMTRON ELK 700Wh (20Ah) battery, taking into account different levels of assistance.
- ECO MODE
- TOUR MODE
- SPORT MODE
- SPORT PLUS MODE
- BOOST MODE
for this reason, every user has their own unique range. the values shown on this page are symbolic and intended for general orientation only, as real-world usage conditions always influence the final range.
