Is the License for Electric Motorcycles the Same as for Regular Motorcycles?
1 Answers
Electric motorcycle licenses and regular motorcycle licenses are the same, both categorized as D, E, or F licenses, but the classification standards differ. To operate a motorcycle, one of the D, E, or F licenses is required. The type of license needed varies based on the motorcycle's engine displacement or maximum design speed: License D permits driving three-wheeled motorcycles with an engine displacement exceeding 50ml or a maximum design speed over 50km/h. License E allows driving two-wheeled motorcycles with an engine displacement exceeding 50ml or a maximum design speed over 50km/h. License F is for motorcycles with an engine displacement of 50ml or less and a maximum design speed of 50km/h or below. According to the new national standard for electric vehicles, electric motorcycles with a maximum design speed exceeding 50km/h, a total weight over 55kg, and lacking pedal riding devices are classified as motor vehicles. The "Regulations on the Application and Use of Motor Vehicle Driving Licenses" stipulate that such motor vehicles require one of the D, E, or F licenses to operate.
