What eats your range?
Speed: Air resistance grows with the square of speed; the difference between 25 km/h and 70 km/h can cut your range in half. Weight: Same machine, same specs — but a 40 kg difference means a completely different performance on the road. Cold: Li-ion cells deliver less energy in the cold; it’s normal for range to drop in winter. Road: Stop-start riding and hills demand noticeably more energy than flat tarmac.
