>This brake layout again confirms that the bike is intended to fit the “50cc” moped category, with a top speed of 28 mph and no more than 4kW of power;
for comparison, i have been using an hero electric "optima" bought exactly 3 years ago which has a motor of 250 watts and battery of 1kwh.
No way that something with a 180 kg weight limit only has a 250W motor. I know it’s written on the website, but that simply wouldn’t work. 250 W is weaker than the Xiaomi Mi Scooter, which is a lightweight kick scooter already criticized for being too weak.
and these are "hot selling" vehicles and i own epluto and optima (optima is not on website as that was refreshed since) and 210+ as i've already said so yeah

https://heroelectric.in/bike/atria-lx/#specs here is an updated version of this.it is still the same insides.
here is my actual usage pattern. 180Kg weight limit and i have consistently pulled 210Kg+ on this.
the battery has severely degraded to a point my first Km range was 50km while today i can only manage 20.
i have used this machine in rain, snow, sun and all the 6 seasons of the valley and has performed admirably.
plus the cost is also around $1000 or less so i don't really see why anyone would need anything more?
sure if you need high speeds and all, you can buy high speed versions
