    Motor placement: Mid-drive motors offer the best power and handling, while hub motors are simpler and less expensive. Consider hilly terrain if you need more power.

    Range: Aim for a range that covers your typical commute or desired distance per charge. Popular ranges are 40-80km.

    Removable Battery: Easier for charging and theft prevention.

    Motor Power: Look for wattage in the 250-500 range for legal and practical considerations. Higher wattage gives more power but drains the battery faster.

    Charging Time: Faster charging is convenient, but premium batteries might take longer.
