Compare E1’s non-folding frame and 18×4.0 tyres with E3’s folding frame. E1 lists a 48V 500W system and 40 km/h; E3 lists a 36V 250W system and 25 km/h. Use these differences to shortlist a model for your intended market.

The storage requirement separates these models more clearly than a motor-wattage comparison.
E1 uses a non-folding frame and an externally mounted removable battery. Start here if you want the long-seat urban layout and do not need a folding main frame.
E3 has a folding main frame and a built-in removable battery. Start here if reducing the stored bike's footprint matters.
Specifications shown are from Jimsen’s E1 and E3 brochure. Final configuration and market requirements are agreed for each order. Prefer a web form? Send a project enquiry.
E3's hinge gives you a folding option that E1 does not have. For a storage-led product line, E3 is the first model to review.
For stairs or car loading, compare the selected bike’s folded dimensions and complete-bike weight with the available space and the user’s lifting requirements.
See the E3 frame and battery detailsE1 has a fixed urban frame and an external removable battery. E3 folds and houses its removable battery inside the frame. Compare storage space, battery access and the listed electrical systems.

Choose E1 or E3, then decide how much you need to change.
Resolve the frame choice first. Then agree the complete configuration and the market-specific document requirements.
E3, because its main frame folds. Check its measured folded envelope against your available space. E1 has a non-folding frame.
No. Folding reduces the stored footprint; it does not reduce the bike’s weight. For stairs or car loading, compare the complete-bike weight, including the selected battery, with the user’s lifting limit.
The brochure identifies removable batteries for E1 and E3. E1's pack is externally mounted; E3's is built in. Verify the removal procedure and the matching charger for the selected version.
Compare nominal Wh as well: nominal voltage multiplied by Ah. For the listed references, E1's 48 V × 15 Ah is 720 Wh; E3's 36 V × 10 Ah is 360 Wh. Nominal Wh does not measure actual range or make the packs interchangeable.
E1’s listed reference is 48V 500W and 40 km/h; E3’s is 36V 250W and 25 km/h. If your European brief requires 25 km/h assistance, review E3 first and confirm the assistance behaviour and required documents for that build. E1’s listed 40 km/h version is not an equivalent configuration.
