e-Bikes are the future. For those in the back, E-BIKES ARE THE FUTURE. Healthier, less deadly, and far more efficient than even electric cars. So how much more efficient than electric cars?
A trip made by an e-bike uses a fraction of the energy required to make that same trip by car. Most e-bikes get around 2,000 miles per gallon of gasoline-equivalent–a rate that greatly surpasses even electric vehicles, which typically fall within the range of 90 to 130 miles per gallon of gasoline-equivalent. In terms of health benefits, despite the reduction in effort required for e-bikes, e-bicycle riders have similar gains in cardiovascular health as compared to those riding traditional bicycles –gains that lower the risk of developing chronic diseases such as heart disease and cancer.
