E-bikes and scooters compared on the spec sheet, not the peak-watt headline.
Rated motor watts, battery watt-hours, claimed range, top speed, payload, weight, torque, brakes and water rating. RidePick reads each maker's spec page and ranks commuter, folding, cargo and fat-tire e-bikes and electric scooters with the weights printed on every page. 5 categories, 66 products, 50 head-to-heads.

How it works
1. The maker's spec table
Every figure comes from the manufacturer's own product or spec page, linked on the product card. Jasion and Apollo publish only peak motor watts, and several makers skip weight or water ratings, so those cells stay blank and score as the weakest published value.
2. Different jobs, different weights
E-bikes are weighted toward battery capacity, range, rated power and payload (payload counts most for cargo bikes); scooters toward rated power, battery, range and rider load.
3. Match it to your body
A 5-mile flat commute and a hilly school run with two kids need different bikes. Check your local e-bike rules, use the guides, then check the price on Amazon. Commissions never change the order.
