Industry Standard: The 30+ Mile Benchmark

On average, electric bikes can travel between 25 - 45 miles on a single charge, with 30+ miles becoming the accepted industry standard for quality electric bicycles. However, this range represents optimal conditions and can extend significantly based on your riding style, terrain, and the specific e-bike model you choose.

MoVcan sets the bar higher with our comprehensive lineup featuring exceptional range capabilities that consistently exceed industry averages. Our models deliver impressive distances that put most competitors to shame:

  • Genesis: Up to 50 miles with 48V 15.6A battery system
  • Storm: 50 miles maximum range with 52V 15.6A configuration
  • V30 MAX: Outstanding 65 miles with powerful 48V 31.2A battery
  • V60 Pro: Exceptional 80 miles with advanced 48V 18.2A system
  • V60: Impressive 70 miles per charge
  • V30 Pro Max: Industry-leading 75 miles with massive 48V 40A battery

Understanding Battery Capacity and Range Calculations

The foundation of e-bike range lies in understanding watt-hours (Wh) and how they translate to real-world distance. Most pedal assist e-bikes ridden around 15 to 18 mph in medium levels of pedal assist will get around 15 Wh/mi, providing a reliable baseline for range calculations.

How MoVcan Maximizes Battery Performance

Our engineering team has optimized every MoVcan model to deliver superior electric bike battery life through several key innovations:

Advanced Battery Management Systems: Each MoVcan e-bike features sophisticated power management that prevents battery degradation and maximizes charge cycles.

High-Capacity Configurations: From our V80's efficient 48V 13A setup to our V30 Pro Max's powerhouse 48V 40A battery, we offer the largest capacity options in each performance category.

Intelligent Power Distribution: Our bikes automatically adjust power delivery based on terrain and riding conditions, ensuring optimal energy efficiency throughout your journey.

Key Factors Affecting Your E-Bike Range

1. Riding Mode Selection

The single most impactful factor in determining your e-bike's range is how you utilize the electric assistance. The throttle uses significantly more battery, so utilizing pedal assist will conserve your battery and is the best for optimizing an efficient electric bike range.

Pedal Assist vs. Throttle Mode: MoVcan bikes excel in both configurations, but strategic use of pedal assist can extend your range by 40-60% compared to full throttle operation.

2. Terrain and Environmental Conditions

Flat vs. Hilly Terrain: Terrain has the most significant impact, with steep hills reducing range by up to 30%, making route planning crucial for longer rides.

Weather Impact: Wind resistance, temperature extremes, and road surface conditions all influence battery consumption. MoVcan's robust construction helps maintain consistent performance across various weather conditions.

3. Rider Weight and Cargo Load

Total payload significantly affects range calculations. The heavier an object is the more force it takes to move it. Thus, the heavier the load on the ebike the more the motor has to exert itself. Fortunately, all MoVcan models support a substantial 330-pound capacity, ensuring excellent performance regardless of rider size or cargo requirements.

4. Tire Selection and Maintenance

Fat Tire Advantage: Many MoVcan models feature wide 20x4.0" fat tires that provide excellent traction and stability. While these may consume slightly more power than narrow road tires, they offer superior control and comfort for extended rides.

Proper Tire Pressure: Maintaining optimal tire pressure can improve your range by 10-15%, making regular maintenance an essential part of maximizing your e-bike's performance.
