What each one costs to own
Over 5 years the two land within 5% of each other, which is inside the error on any of these inputs. Cost is not the deciding factor here.
That figure moves mostly on the battery. The HIMIWAY A7 PRO covers about 38,400 km before its pack is due for replacement; the HIMIWAY D5 PRO, about 38,400 km. Ride less than that and the replacement never enters the sum.

Verdict
On the measured axes the HIMIWAY A7 PRO is the better buy, and the HIMIWAY D5 PRO needs a reason of its own: a colour, a frame, a shop you trust, a price that moves. None of those are in our numbers, and all of them are legitimate.
Range here is an estimate under one reference ride, not a measurement. Yours will differ with terrain, weight, tyres and weather, which is what the range calculator is for.
