The rise in electric vehicles is a valuable shift for both humanity and the environment, but it still remains a luxury for many people.
The initial investment of a new car alone presents its challenges for most urban dwellers,
even those looking for a more eco-friendly mode of travel.
That’s where electric bikes (e-bikes) come in.
From 2017, roughly 35 million e-bikes were sold annually.
Between 2020-2023, it’s expected that 130 million e-bikes will be sold and that they’re likely to overtake the number of other electric vehicles on the road.
This is due to a number of factors, but considerably thanks to improvements inlithium-ion batteries, price point, power, and a rising interest in zero-emission vehicles.
Over otherelectric vehicles, e-bikes are more affordable and attractive to the average consumer.
WHY E-BIKES?
E-bikes have taken off not just as a recreational vehicle, but as a practice mode of daily transportation.
They’re significantly faster than your average road bikes, making them a safe and socially distanced way to commute to and from the office.
