Ranked by formula

Best e-bikes under €1,500 in Europe

Every e-bike we list as sold in Europe at or under €1,500, put in order by one published formula instead of by opinion: estimated range for each €100 of price, adjusted for weight and torque. 223 bikes qualify. The top 20 are below, then the top 3 of each type. These are catalogue figures and our range estimate; we have not ridden or tested any of these bikes.

Prices are in EUR and never converted from another currency. 129 of the 223 bikes are priced from the brand's own store, as read on its page within the last 72 hours; the rest use the list price the catalogue states for Europe. Each row says which it is.

Reading the list

A figure shown as Not stated is one the catalogue does not hold for that bike. It is never filled in with a default; a bike with no torque figure simply gets no torque adjustment.

A bike marked as over the limits has a stated figure above the e-bike class limits for Europe. That is a comparison of catalogue figures with the rules, not a legal ruling.

A bike can be on the list while its store shows it out of stock; the row says so when the store does.

How the order is worked out

The order is a formula over catalogue figures, printed here from the same constants the code uses. It is not a test, a review or an opinion.

score = estimated range per €100 of price x weight factor x torque factor
Bike typeWeight factorTorque factor
Folding1 minus 2% for each kg over 20 kg, never below 0.751 plus 0.15% for each Nm over 50 Nm, at most +6%. None when torque is not stated
City, Commuter, Road, Gravel, Touring1 minus 1% for each kg over 25 kg, never below 0.751 plus 0.15% for each Nm over 50 Nm, at most +6%. None when torque is not stated
MTB1 minus 0.5% for each kg over 28 kg, never below 0.751 plus 0.3% for each Nm over 50 Nm, at most +12%. None when torque is not stated
Cargo1 minus 0.5% for each kg over 35 kg, never below 0.751 plus 0.3% for each Nm over 50 Nm, at most +12%. None when torque is not stated

Bikes with the same score are ordered by longer estimated range, then lower price, then lighter weight.

Only prices quoted in the market count: the catalogue's list price for it, or with store tracking on, the price on the brand's own store read within the last 72 hours. A store price is used only when the store does not show the bike as out of stock and the price is at least 50% of the bike's list price; otherwise the list price stands.

A page needs at least 10 ranked bikes; a type section needs at least 3.

The estimate itself is explained in the methodology.
