What is the maximum speed of a 60V 800W motor?
2 Answers
60V 800W motor has a maximum speed of 40 km/h, which is a speed limit set by the manufacturer to ensure battery life. Generally, 60V 800W electric vehicles are limited to speeds between 35 km/h and 40 km/h, while 72V electric vehicles are limited to speeds within 40 km/h. If you want to go faster, you can remove the voltage limit of the controller and increase the current to boost the motor's speed. After removing the speed limit, the maximum speed can reach about 50 km/h. Electric vehicles, also known as electric-powered vehicles, are divided into AC electric vehicles and DC electric vehicles.
I often ride electric bicycles, and a 60V 800W motor typically reaches a top speed of 40 to 50 kilometers per hour, but this depends on the specific conditions—lighter vehicles can go faster, like when I weigh 75 kg, it stabilizes at 45 km/h; if the controller isn’t limiting the current, it can go even higher. Performance is better with a full battery, but speed drops below 30 km/h as the battery ages. Tire pressure and wind resistance also play a role. New bikes feel fast and handle flat roads well, but if equipped with gear shifting or on steep slopes, the speed may drop to around 35 km/h. Always remember safety first—don’t overspeed. E-bike maintenance is simple; regularly checking battery health helps maintain stable speeds.
