Hiboy EX6

What the Hiboy EX6 is built for

The Hiboy EX6 is a commuter e-bike, built for daily rides to work, errands and city streets.

It has a 500 W (960 W peak) hub motor and a top speed of 25 mph (40 km/h).

It carries a 696 Wh removable battery and a stated range of up to 75 miles (121 km) on a charge. Real-world range is usually lower than the rated figure: it falls with throttle use, hills, cold weather, rider weight and higher assist levels.

The Hiboy EX6 carries up to 300 lb (136 kg) including the rider, has front suspension and is rated IPX4 against water.

In the United States the Hiboy EX6 sells for $900, below the median of $1,499 across 230 commuter e-bikes with a US price, among the more affordable models. That is $1 per watt-hour of battery.

Where the Hiboy EX6 may be ridden

In the European Union and the United Kingdom an e-bike counts as a bicycle only within the pedelec limits; as specified, its 500 W motor is above the 250 W limit, its 25 mph (40 km/h) top speed is above the 25 km/h at which assistance must stop and its throttle moves it without pedalling, which the pedelec rules allow only as start-up help at walking pace. A model above those limits is treated as a moped there, with type approval, registration and insurance, unless the brand sells a version set to the European limits.

Hiboy EX6 safety certification

The brand's listing for the Hiboy EX6 does not state a UL 2849 or EN 15194 certification. New York City allows only e-bikes certified to UL 2849 to be sold or rented there, and California requires certified batteries from 2026; ask the seller for the certificate before buying.
