The XB-600 is our longest range electric moped bike (30 miles) in this price range and is built very heavy duty. It has heavy-duty front and rear shocks and has been upgraded with heavier duty mechanical and electric equipment. Even the rear trunk box is made of heavier duty materials than the XB-502 or XB-508.

The XB-600 electric bike has a 600 watt brushless rear hub motor (installed in the center of the rear wheel) that is powered a 48 volt system consisting of 4 large high-power 12 Volt 20 AMP batteries, the largest battery we offer. The batteries can last 3 years or more and can be re-charged more than 500 times. The battery pack is designed for easy removal and can be charged on or off the bike. These high amperage batteries give the XB-600 greater acceleration and hill climbing power and extended range over the XB-508 and XB-502. The XB-600 will travel 30 to 35 miles on a single charge depending on rider weight, terrain and average speed.

The XB-600 Elite electric moped bike is the perfect long-range urban commuter vehicle that can be driven without a driver's license,* and usually no insurance and no DMV registration fees are required. It is also perfect for those working on large campuses.

NOTE: As a special exclusive service provided by no other dealer, Electric Vehicle Mall sends to each of its customers our exclusive set of detailed instructions and clarifications for the XB-600 that go well beyond what is contained in the owners manual.

The XB-600 electric moped bike provides the FREEDOM TO MOVE! At 20 mph, it's enormously faster than walking, more fun than a car, and sure beats waiting for a cab or a bus or a friend to give you a ride. It's super quiet and nearly maintenance free. It's also super economical since it costs less than 1¢ per mile in electricity to drive it. Go where you want, whenever you want! It's also the perfect solution for those who have lost their license due to a DUI or other circumstance.

The XB-600 is classified as a electric bicycle and is legal most everywhere with no license needed to operate*. The XB-600 is loaded with nearly all of the same features you will find on our electric motorcycles, yet the XB-600 is less than half the price. The XB-600 can be ridden without the pedals but, if you want it to qualify as an electric bicycle, they should be installed.

With the rising gas prices these days, electric bikes are becoming an ever more popular, and affordable alternative mode of transportation.

*Federal law HR 727 classifies the XB-600 as an electric bicycle and requires that States treat electric bicycles the same as other bicycles. Accordingly, in most States, your XB-600 can be driven without a State drivers license and, unless restricted by local ordinances, can be ridden any place bicycles are allowed to operate (CLICK HERE for more information on applicable Federal and State laws).
