What the numbers say
There are 12 of these in the database. The middle one costs about 1,573 EUR, which is above the 1,203 EUR the catalogue sits at, and carries 720 Wh of battery against a catalogue median of 720 Wh.
Weight runs to a median of 32.7 kg, above the 29.5 kg typical elsewhere, and that is most of why the estimated range lands at 51 km against 47 km across the catalogue: a heavier bike spends more of its battery moving itself. The estimate is above the catalogue median.
Across the group our estimate lands 33% under the claimed range, below the 46% we see catalogue-wide. The Velowave Prado S holds up best, 19% under its claim; the Velowave Forest SM is furthest out at 57%. A wide gap is a difference of test conditions, not an accusation: a claim measured on flat ground in Eco with a light rider is a real number answering a different question.
