Who each one is for
VIVI H7UL
Suits you if you want:
- 65 Nm of torque, enough for rolling ground
- rated to 120 kg of rider and luggage together
What it asks in return:
- about 27 km estimated, so it wants a charge most days
- 374.4 Wh, a small pack to keep an eye on in winter
VIVI M026TGB
Suits you if you want:
- folds, so it fits a boot, a train or a hallway
- rated to 150 kg of rider and luggage together
What it asks in return:
- 40 Nm of torque, so long climbs will ask for your legs
- about 27 km estimated, so it wants a charge most days
- 374 Wh, a small pack to keep an eye on in winter
Each line above is read straight from the specification: torque, weight, payload, battery and our range estimate. Nothing here is a preference, and neither bike is being recommended over the other.
What each one costs to own
Over 5 years the VIVI M026TGB costs about 314 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 VIVI H7UL covers about 19,968 km before its pack is due for replacement; the VIVI M026TGB, about 19,947 km. Ride less than that and the replacement never enters the sum.
| Over five years | VIVI H7UL | VIVI M026TGB |
|---|---|---|
| Purchase price | $519 | $500 |
| Charging | $68 | $68 |
| Servicing | $972 | $648 |
| Battery replacement | ||
| Resale value | $-126 | $-122 |
| Total | $1,433 | $1,094 |

Verdict
On the measured axes the VIVI M026TGB is the better buy, and the VIVI H7UL 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.
