There have been some news stories and posts lately about E-bikes and E-scooters which has me wondering some things.

I have heard that models like the Ola S1 Pro in India are quite popular.

I am not sure what the most popular model would be in China?

When you travel you realize E-bikes and E-scooters in particular are very very common place in Asia and some other market places. Usually market places with extreme populations which makes sense.

Is there a certain brand that is known in Europe and more so North America that is the go-to model?

I wouldn’t mind looking into this as an option!

Any positive/negative things someone should know about these options?

It seems like a really affordable way to get around if it suits your needs.

    Bikes and motorcycles get a lot of use in Europe. Less in the winters, of course, but there’s always plenty of them about. And for sure riders are using them to go to/from work, small grocery runs, etc. I’d guess that some folks would be able to replace at least some car trips with e-bike/e-motorcycle trips, especially if the latter had removable batteries so that it was possible to charge the battery in your flat.
