Pedego Interceptor

What the Pedego Interceptor is built for

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

It has a 749 W hub motor and 60 Nm of torque.

It carries a 910 Wh 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 Pedego Interceptor weighs 53 lb (24.2 kg) and carries up to 249 lb (113 kg) including the rider.

In the United States the Pedego Interceptor sells for $1,200, 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 Pedego Interceptor may be ridden

Pedego Interceptor is sold as Class 1 (pedal assist only, up to 20 mph), Class 2 (throttle, up to 20 mph) and Class 3 (pedal assist up to 28 mph) under the three-class system most US states use. Class 3 e-bikes are kept off some bike paths and trails, and several states set a minimum age and require a helmet for them. Riders can switch between classes in the settings, and the class it is ridden in decides where it may go.

In the European Union and the United Kingdom an e-bike counts as a bicycle only within the pedelec limits; as specified, its 749 W motor is above the 250 W limit 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.

Pedego Interceptor safety certification

The brand states that the Pedego Interceptor is certified to UL 2271 and UL 2580.

UL 2271 is the US safety standard for the battery pack of a light electric vehicle.

UL 2580 is the safety standard for batteries used in electric vehicles.

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.
