What each one costs to own
Over 5 years the Mukkpet GL costs about 476 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 Mukkpet Breeze covers about 38,400 km before its pack is due for replacement; the Mukkpet GL, about 38,400 km. Ride less than that and the replacement never enters the sum.

Which one to buy

Verdict
On the measured axes the Mukkpet GL is the better buy, and the Mukkpet Breeze 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.
