Lectric XP4

What the Lectric XP4 is built for

The Lectric XP4 is a commuter e-bike, built for daily rides to work, errands and city streets.

It has a 500 W (1,092 W peak) motor and a top speed of 28 mph (45 km/h).

It carries a 500 Wh battery and a stated range of up to 50 miles (80 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 Lectric XP4 carries up to 331 lb (150 kg) including the rider and uses a torque sensor, so the motor responds to how hard you pedal.

In the United States the Lectric XP4 sells for $999, below the median of $1,700 across 311 commuter e-bikes with a US price, among the more affordable models. That is $2 per watt-hour of battery.

Where the Lectric XP4 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 and its 28 mph (45 km/h) top speed is above the 25 km/h at which assistance must stop. 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.

Lectric XP4 safety certification

The brand states that the Lectric XP4 is certified to UL 2849.

UL 2849 is the US safety standard for the whole electrical system of an e-bike: battery, charger, motor and controller tested together.

New York City allows only e-bikes certified to UL 2849, with batteries certified to UL 2271, to be sold or rented there; California requires e-bike batteries to meet UL 2849 or EN 15194 from 2026.
