Price against range

The e-bike map

Each dot is one model: its price across, its estimated range up. The line follows the longest estimated range on offer at each price. 505 models are placed.

505 bikes shown, 8 on the line.

  • City
  • Folding
  • Other types
  • Filled dot: the list price in the United States, or a price read on the brand's own store
  • Hollow dot: a converted price, not one any shop charges in the United States
  • Line: the longest estimated range on offer at each price

The line: 8 bikes

Cheapest first. Each one goes further than every bike priced at or below it.

How the map is drawn

Nothing here is a test result. Every position comes from a figure the catalogue states or from a formula published on this site.

PartRule
Estimated rangeOur range calculator's formula under one reference ride: Tour assist, rolling terrain, mild weather, brisk pace, a 80 kg rider and a 25 kg reference bike. It carries a plus or minus 12% band.
Not placedA bike with no battery capacity or weight stated, a battery under 150 Wh or over 2000 Wh, a weight under 12 kg or over 60 kg, or more than 55 Wh per kg has no estimate, so it has no dot.
PriceThe catalogue's list price in the market's own currency. A bike not listed for that market is placed at its list price converted at the site's fixed rate and drawn as a hollow dot: arithmetic, not a price any shop charges there.
The lineA bike is on the line when no bike at the same or a lower price has a longer estimated range. At equal prices the longer estimate is taken, so a tie never puts two bikes on it. Between two points the line holds the cheaper bike's range, because that is the longest range available for that much.
Range per price rankA bike's estimated range divided by its price, ranked among the bikes in view: 1 is the highest ratio, and bikes with the same ratio share a rank. Ranked in kilometres, so the order is the same in miles.
AxesPrice is on a logarithmic axis, so the same proportional step takes the same width at any price. Range starts at zero in your region's unit.
ColoursMountain, city and folding bikes get a colour each; every other type shares grey, and the type filter tells them apart. A filter never recolours a dot.

The estimate is a calculation, not a test. Full method: Methodology.
