1500W Electric Bikes

1500W Electric Bikes in Canada (2026): Rated Motors, Live Prices and the Road Rules

Every bike on this shelf has a motor its maker rates above 1,000W and up to 1,500W, all motors added together. 11 of them are in stock today, from $1,399 to $6,499 CAD. Each of those ratings is over the 500W line the provincial e-bike rules converge on; where a maker ships a bike with a factory limit, the table marks it §.

The 1500W bikes, cheapest first

All figures are the makers’ own; prices are in CAD, live from our store. Rated = the maker’s rated (nominal, continuous or sustained) figure, all motors added; where a maker prints one figure without saying rated or peak, we use that figure. — = the maker does not print it. Figures read on the makers’ own pages between 6 and 18 October 2026. Prices and stock are live from our store; a bike shows “Sold out” when no version can be ordered, and “(backorder)” after its price when it can be ordered only on backorder. One listing sells several motors (the Eunorau Flash: 750W rear-drive, 1,000W mid-drive, or two 750W motors), so it sits on every shelf one of its versions fits.

§ Eahora Canada ships this bike “Factory-limited to 500W output to comply with local road regulations”. We shelve it by the motor power Eahora prints for it on its global page, or printed on its Canadian page before the limit was added. Whether a factory limit changes how a province classifies a bike is not settled.

Sold as “1500W”, rated lower: the bikes that peak at 1,500W

Some bikes are advertised with a 1,500W figure that is their peak. Their makers rate them at 1,000W or 500W, so each one sits on the shelf its rating fits, not on this one. Here they are with both figures, so you can compare them with the bikes above.

Rated and peak figures are the makers’ own, read on their pages on 18 October 2026. Riding Times’ US site rates its US versions of the Z8 and GT33 at 750W; the figures here are for the Canadian models. Prices and stock are live from our store.

How we choose the bikes on this shelf

We shelve by the motor’s rating, not its peak, because the rating is what the provincial e-bike definitions measure. Nova Scotia’s new definition, in force from 19 October 2026, is typical of how the provinces write it: the motors, “singly or in combination”, must have “a total continuous nominal power output rating” of 500 W or less (N.S. Reg. 221/2026, s. 3). So we add the motors together, read each figure on the maker’s own page, and where a maker prints two different figures for one motor, we print both instead of choosing one.

A factory limit does not move a bike down the ladder: where a maker ships a bike limited to 500W, we shelve it by the figure the maker prints for its motors, and the table marks it. Where a maker prints a rating, the rating decides the shelf and the peak never does. Where a maker prints only a peak and no rating, we shelve the bike at half that peak and mark it †: our estimate, shown beside the maker’s peak.

What changes above 500W

FAQ — 1500W electric bikes in Canada

How fast does a 1500W electric bike go?
Wattage alone does not set top speed: the maker’s controller setting, the gearing and the load do. Each bike’s own page prints the maker’s top-speed figure, and several makers ship a lower road setting than the top figure they print.

Is a 1500W e-bike legal?
Canada has had no federal e-bike definition since the federal power-assisted-bicycle definition was repealed effective February 4, 2021. E-bike rules are provincial, and they converge on a 500W motor and 32 km/h of assisted speed (Nova Scotia’s 30 km/h ended on 19 October 2026). A motor rated 1,500W is three times that line, so these bikes sit outside the provincial e-bike rules; for a bike its maker ships limited to 500W (marked § in the table), whether a factory limit changes that is not settled. Under that line, an e-bike is treated much like a bicycle. Over it, you’re into off-road or motor-vehicle territory — different rules, different insurance, different places you can ride. Where you can ride differs by province and city: our laws guide goes province by province.

Why is a “2400W” or “3000W” bike on this shelf?
Because that number is its peak. Riding Times says of the GT73 Pro: “A 1500W rated motor delivers up to 3000W of peak output”, and of the GT73: “A 1200W rated motor with up to 2400W peak output”. We shelve every bike by its rating, and the table shows both figures.
