SAMEBIKE 20LVXD30 vs SAMEBIKE 20LVXD30-II
The SAMEBIKE 20LVXD30 and the SAMEBIKE 20LVXD30-II are close enough that no single figure decides it. The table below shows every axis, and the differences that are inside the margin are marked as ties rather than dressed up as wins.
Range is our estimate under the reference ride, not the manufacturer's claim. Cost is over 5 years at 3,000 km a year, on the same formula the cost-of-ownership calculator runs. How we work this out

Where each one wins
Nothing separates the SAMEBIKE 20LVXD30 and the SAMEBIKE 20LVXD30-II by more than the margin on our own estimate. On the numbers, this is one bike sold under two names.
What each one costs to own
Over 5 years the SAMEBIKE 20LVXD30 costs about 70 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 SAMEBIKE 20LVXD30 covers about 26,613 km before its pack is due for replacement; the SAMEBIKE 20LVXD30-II, about 26,613 km. Ride less than that and the replacement never enters the sum.

Verdict
On the measured axes the SAMEBIKE 20LVXD30 is the better buy, and the SAMEBIKE 20LVXD30-II 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.
