When powered up the P275 springs into life, the UI is very simple to understand, it boasts 5 riding modes from Eco to Turbo along with a 3 speed automatic transmission and Bafang torque sensor, linked to the pedals and not the rear motor like on the Engwe Engine Pro.
Because the Engwe P275 Pro in an EU compliant bike, it is equipped with no throttle option and a 250 Watt motor which will peak at around 25Kmh or 15Mph.
The motor is purely an assistance, and just like a conventional bike, the boost is controlled by the pedal pressure.
So the more pedal pressure you put in….the more performance you get out.
Speed and range
Engwe claim the range is around 260Km, but these are in the lowest pedal option and perfect rider weight and conditions, I think a realistic figure will be around 200Km which is 125 miles.
In maximum pedal assist of 5, it will be just under 100 miles.
The batter is a 36V 19.2Ah, made from Samsung cells, and takes around 8 hours to charge from empty.

My first thoughts before I ride the Engwe P275 Pro.
I would class the Engwe p275 Pro as a commuter / city bike and use for occasional light trails, perfect for those sunny days when you just fancy a ride out.
The rear rack has a good carrying capacity and will comfortably hold 25Kg.
So far, my only 2 issues are :
The saddle height – 92 to 98cm, which is just a touch too high for me, even in the minimum position, I think I will need to purchase another saddle stem with no hydraulic mechanism and that will gain me another 2 inches less.

The second issue is with the brakes, they are on the wrong side, front brake is on the left and rear on the right, which will certainly be an issue if breaking in an emergency. I crashed my Engine Pro due to the same problem.
I think E bike manufacturers from China should all work to the same standards as motorcycles and other hand braked vehicles.
Front Brake Right – Back Brake Left.
