The HIMIWAY D7 leads on 1 of these, the HIMIWAY Escape PRO on 1. Neither sweeps it, so the choice comes down to which of those you actually use.
What each one costs to own
Over 5 years the HIMIWAY Escape PRO costs about 561 EUR less to own, once purchase, charging, servicing, a battery replacement where one is due, and resale are all counted.
That figure moves mostly on the battery. The HIMIWAY D7 covers about 38,400 km before its pack is due for replacement; the HIMIWAY Escape PRO, about 38,400 km. Ride less than that and the replacement never enters the sum.

Which one to buy
- Pick the HIMIWAY Escape PRO if you ride to the edge of the battery and dislike planning around it.

Verdict
On the measured axes the HIMIWAY Escape PRO is the better buy, and the HIMIWAY D7 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.
