In Singapore, where urban mobility and sustainability go hand in hand, electric bicycles (e-bikes) have become an increasingly popular mode of transportation. However, with this rise in popularity comes the need for strict regulations to ensure public safety and road compliance. The Land Transport Authority (LTA) has established clear guidelines for e-bikes, requiring all models to meet specific safety and performance standards before they can be legally ridden on public roads. LTA-approved e-bikes must adhere to key specifications, including a maximum motor power output of 250W and a speed limit of 25 km/h when powered. Additionally, their batteries must be UL2272-certified to minimize fire risks—a critical safety measure in Singapore’s densely populated urban environment. By choosing an LTA-approved e-bike from a trusted provider like Eko Life, riders can enjoy the convenience and eco-friendliness of electric cycling while staying fully compliant with national regulations.
The consequences of riding a non-compliant e-bike in Singapore can be severe, ranging from hefty fines to the confiscation of the vehicle. First-time offenders caught using illegal or modified e-bikes may face fines of up to $1,000, while repeat offenders risk penalties of up to $5,000 and even imprisonment. Beyond legal repercussions, uncertified e-bikes pose significant safety hazards, including battery fires, brake failures, and instability at high speeds. These risks not only endanger the rider but also pedestrians and other road users. At Eko Life, we prioritize safety and compliance by offering a curated selection of LTA-approved e-bikes that undergo rigorous quality checks. Our models are designed for reliability, efficiency, and peace of mind, ensuring that riders can navigate Singapore’s streets without worry.
Choosing an LTA-approved e-bike isn’t just about avoiding penalties—it’s about contributing to a safer, more sustainable future for urban mobility. Certified e-bikes are engineered to balance performance and safety, providing a smooth and controlled riding experience. They also support Singapore’s vision of a car-lite society by offering a green alternative to traditional transport. Eko Life is committed to promoting responsible riding habits, which is why we educate our customers on the importance of LTA compliance and proper e-bike maintenance. From daily commuters to weekend explorers, riders who opt for LTA-approved e-bikes can enjoy the full benefits of electric cycling while upholding the highest standards of safety and legality.
By investing in an LTA-approved e-bike from a reputable dealer like Eko Life, you’re not just purchasing a vehicle—you’re making a smart, long-term choice for hassle-free and sustainable transportation in Singapore. Whether you’re looking for an efficient way to beat traffic, reduce your carbon footprint, or simply enjoy the freedom of two-wheeled travel, an LTA-certified e-bike is the safest and most reliable option available. Ride with confidence, ride legally, and ride towards a greener future with Eko Life.

Can the eDegree EW4 handle users weighing more than 150kg?
Marcus Tan –
Dear Camilia Abdul Latif, thank you for your review and for considering the eDegree EW4 Heavy Duty Aluminium Electric Wheelchair. Unfortunately, our wheelchair has a maximum loading capacity of 150KG. It means the wheelchair is designed to safely accommodate users within this weight range.

I’ve been using eDegree EW4 for a few weeks now and I must say it’s been a game-changer. The folding mechanism is super convenient, and the lightweight design makes it a breeze to transport. However, the battery life could be better.
Liana Ho –
How does the speed vary when climbing uphill or on uneven terrain?
Marcus Tan –
Thank you for sharing your concern about the speed of the eDegree EW4 Heavy Duty Aluminium Electric Wheelchair on uneven terrain. The wheelchair’s 300W x 2 Brushless Motors and 24V 13Ah Lithium Battery are designed to provide efficient power and speed. According to our product specifications, the climbing ability of the wheelchair is ≤30°, and it can reach a speed of 0-6km/h. This suggests that the wheelchair is suitable for use on gentle slopes and uneven terrain, although we recommend using caution and maintaining control when navigating such areas. If you have any further questions or concerns, please don’t hesitate to ask.

I’ve been using eDegree EW4 for a few months now and I’m extremely satisfied with its performance.

I recently purchased this eDegree EW4 Heavy Duty Aluminium Electric Wheelchair and I must say it exceeds my expectations. The build quality is top-notch, and it’s incredibly easy to maneuver. The 360° joystick controller is a game-changer – it’s so intuitive and responsive. My only minor complaint is that it takes a bit longer to charge than expected (around 5-6 hours). But that’s a small price to pay for the performance you get. Overall, I’m incredibly happy with my purchase and would highly recommend it to anyone in the market for a heavy-duty electric wheelchair.

The eDegree EW4 Heavy Duty Aluminium Electric Wheelchair has genuinely changed my life – it’s given me the freedom to move around without limitations.

I’m not sure about this FreedomCruiser Electric Wheelchair… I mean, it’s a great product and all, but the price seems a bit steep for me. Maybe if they offered some sort of bundle deal or promotion, I’d be more inclined to purchase.
Sarah Yong –
What I love most about my FreedomCruiser Electric Wheelchair is its ease of use! The joystick controller takes some getting used to, but once you master it, navigating through tight spaces and crowded areas becomes a breeze. My only question is whether there’s a way to improve the charging time (4-6 hours)?
Lance Lee –
Hi Sarah, thanks for sharing your experience with the FreedomCruiser Electric Wheelchair! We’re glad to hear that you’ve found it easy to use and navigate through tight spaces. Regarding the charging time, we understand your concern. Unfortunately, our engineers have optimized the battery life to provide an impressive driving range of 15-18km on a single charge, which might affect the charging time. However, we appreciate your feedback and will consider improving this aspect in future product developments. Keep exploring and enjoying your FreedomCruiser Electric Wheelchair!
Leong Wei Chua –
I’m still getting used to my FreedomCruiser Electric Wheelchair, but so far I’m impressed with its performance! The 200W brushless motors provide a smooth ride, and the LTA-approved status gives me peace of mind. My only minor concern is whether the 12° climbing ability might be a limitation in hilly areas.
Wan Ting Lee –
What a fantastic product! The FreedomCruiser Electric Wheelchair is designed with practicality and comfort in mind. I love the compact size when folded, making it easy to transport and store. However, I do wonder if there’s a way to improve the turning radius (55cm) – it feels slightly limited in tight spaces.
Evelyn Wong –
I’ve had this FreedomCruiser Electric Wheelchair for a few weeks now, and I must say it’s been a game-changer! The ergonomic seat and backrest provide excellent comfort during long rides. The 15-18km driving range on a single charge is impressive, allowing me to explore without worrying about running out of juice. My only question is whether the solid rear wheel might be prone to damage in rough terrain? Overall, I’m very pleased with this purchase.
Michelle Chong –
Thank you for sharing your experience with the BC-EA9000 Electric Wheelchair, Evelyn! It’s great to hear that you’re enjoying the comfort and range it provides. Regarding your question about the solid rear wheel, I’m not aware of any specific information on its durability in rough terrain. However, the manufacturer has designed the wheelchair for everyday use, and the 10-inch solid rear wheel is intended for stability and maneuverability. It’s possible that the wheel might be more prone to damage if you encounter extreme terrain or obstacles. Nevertheless, I’m glad to hear that you’re pleased with your purchase overall.
