Product groups: helping consumers choose
The product groups into which these Pedelec Awards are sub-divided represent a wide variety of intended uses and customer expectations. These groups have been defined as a result of analysing, and then weighting, customer wishes: an approach which is unique in the industry. The weighting of customer wishes, including for example high levels of power assist or good range, reflects different types of end user. A parent, for example, is most likely to value the range and reliability of their electric bike ahead of its looks, while an athletic e-biker will look first for power and sporty, chic looks.
So with these product groupings, ExtraEnergy provides a clear response to the growing diversity of the booming electric bike market, by diversifying the requirements of the test. This categorisation and awards structure provides useful orientation for customers, and it also incentivises industry excellence.

Congratulations to all test winners!

About ExtraEnergy
ExtraEnergy has carried out independent e-bike and pedelec tests since 1992. Since then the organisation has established itself as the most influential information, user protection and promotional organisation for light electric vehicles (LEVs) worldwide.

The founders realised from the start that these vehicles need to be experienced first-hand. Since 1997 the Test IT Track has been on the road, and today has three units for the Test IT Show. ExtraEnergy is also rooted at its test facility in Tanna, where 26 years of test reports and LEV history are on display at the LEV Museum.

Other services on offer include presentations and exhibitions at trade and public shows, plus information distribution with the assistance of correspondents worldwide.

Alongside our physical presence, www.extraenergy.org provides a treasure-house of information online. With support from the European Union and the IEA (International Energy Agency), in 2012 the Go Pedelec! Handbook was published in German, English, Dutch, Hungarian, Czech, Italian, Spanish and Chinese, including much new information and best practice studies for electric-assist two-wheelers.

As founding members of the EnergyBus and BATSO (Battery Safety Organisation) associations, ExtraEnergy is also active on both the ISO (International Standards Organisation) Standards Committee, with a focus on mechanical standardisation, and on the IEC (International Electrotechnical Commission), and so helps set safety and communication standards for LEVs worldwide.
