Electric motorcycle manufacturers in China range from large brand groups to small assembly plants, and their quotations rarely describe the same vehicle in the same way. For a wholesale buyer, the useful comparison is not which supplier is biggest but which one can quote, build and support the exact motorcycle you plan to sell.
Short answer: Compare electric motorcycle manufacturers on one specification sheet: rated motor power, battery voltage, chemistry and capacity, controller rating, tyres, brakes, listed speed and range, supply format and after-sales parts. Ask each supplier to complete the same specification fields for the same model class, then compare prices only between matching builds. BG EBIKE produces and assembles 1,500–3,000 W electric motorcycles in its own factory in Taizhou and accepts mixed-model wholesale orders with a flexible MOQ.
What kinds of electric motorcycle manufacturers are there in China?
There are three common supplier types, and each suits a different buyer. Knowing which one you are talking to explains most differences in price, flexibility and minimum order.
| Supplier type | What it does | Best suited to |
|---|---|---|
| Brand manufacturer | Sells its own branded models through appointed distributors | Buyers who want an established brand and accept fixed models and territories |
| Factory supplier (OEM) | Builds its own range and supplies wholesale buyers, often with the buyer’s logo | Importers and dealers building their own range or brand |
| Assembler or trader | Buys frames and components or finished vehicles and resells them | Very small or highly mixed orders |
BG EBIKE is a factory supplier: we produce and assemble our electric motorcycles in our own factory and supply them to importers and dealers, with logo printing available from one full container. If you are still deciding whether a supplier is the factory, the checks in how to verify an electric moped manufacturer apply equally to motorcycles: the same company name on the quotation, invoice and export documents, and inspection access at the production site.
How do you compare quotations from electric motorcycle manufacturers?
Put every quotation on the same sheet, line by line. Two motorcycles that look identical in photographs can differ in battery capacity, controller rating and tyres, and those lines often explain a price gap.
- Motor: continuous rated power in watts, and whether a peak figure is also stated.
- Battery: voltage, chemistry (lead-acid or lithium) and capacity in Ah.
- Controller: current rating, for example 55 A on a 72 V system.
- Chassis: wheel size and tyre sizes, brakes (disc or drum, front and rear) and suspension type.
- Performance: listed top speed and range, with the conditions behind them.
- Supply format: complete vehicle (CBU), partly assembled (SKD) or kit (CKD), and units per 40HQ.
- Support: warranty period and which wear parts are included.
When a supplier leaves a line blank, ask before you compare. A quotation that lists only “3000W, 72V, 80 km/h” is not yet comparable with one that gives battery chemistry and capacity. For the general method, see comparing supplier quotes on the same basis, and for motor figures, rated vs peak motor power.
Which listed figures need checking before you order?
Top speed and range need the most care, because they depend on battery capacity, rider weight and terrain. Treat them as listed values and confirm the configuration that produced them.
For example, BG EBIKE’s M5 and RZ both list 3,000 W on a 72 V system and 70–80 km/h, but the M5 runs on 12-inch wheels with 120/70-12 tyres and a 124.5 cm wheelbase, while the RZ uses 17-inch wheels with a 140/70-17 rear tyre and a 145 cm wheelbase. Riders will notice that difference more than a small difference in listed speed. The Pioneer No.1, by contrast, lists 1,500 W with a 72 V 60 Ah lithium battery and a 100 km range, so it is a range-focused model rather than a speed-focused one.
When you need a figure for marketing, ask the supplier which battery and test conditions it applies to, and write that configuration into the order.
What should wholesale motorcycle buyers agree with the manufacturer?
Agree the commercial and support terms in writing before the deposit. The points below are the ones that most often cause disputes later.
- Minimum and mix: BG EBIKE’s MOQ is flexible by model, and motorcycles can share a container with other vehicle types.
- Container count: roughly 20–40 large vehicles per 40HQ, confirmed per model and packing.
- Lead time: about 30–35 days per full container after the configuration is confirmed; lithium-battery containers ship as dangerous goods and take longer to book.
- Payment: 30% deposit; 70% after inspection and before loading.
- Inspection: who inspects and against which checklist. BG EBIKE accepts your own or a third-party inspector. See quality control and warranty.
- Documents for approval: list what your homologation agent needs and confirm what the manufacturer can provide. BG EBIKE does not claim vehicle certifications; MSDS and UN38.3 test summary supplied for lithium battery shipments.
Should you buy complete motorcycles or kits for local assembly?
Buy complete vehicles (CBU) for a first order unless your market’s import rules or duties clearly reward local assembly. SKD and CKD supply can lower freight per unit and may be required or favoured in some markets, but they need a local workshop, trained staff and a parts-control process.
BG EBIKE supplies complete vehicles as standard and agrees SKD or CKD supply by model. The trade-offs are covered in CBU vs SKD vs CKD and on the CKD and SKD kits page.
Models to compare
Ask every manufacturer to quote against these three listed builds so the answers are comparable.
- YZB 3000W Electric Motorcycle: 3,000 W, 72 V, 55 A controller, 17-inch wheels, 130 cm wheelbase, lead-acid or lithium.
- M6 3000W Electric Motorcycle: 3,000 W, 72 V, 120/70-12 tyres, hydraulic suspension, listed 70–80 km/h.
- Pioneer No.1 1500W Electric Motorcycle: 1,500 W, 72 V 60 Ah lithium, 15-tube controller, listed 100 km range.

Frequently asked questions
Short answers to other questions wholesale buyers ask when choosing an electric motorcycle supplier.
Do Chinese electric motorcycle manufacturers publish wholesale prices?
BG EBIKE provides configuration-specific quotations rather than a public wholesale price list, because battery chemistry and capacity, quantity, accessories and supply format affect the order. BG EBIKE quotes each order against the chosen configuration and does not publish a price list. Our wholesale price guide explains which cost drivers move a motorcycle quotation, so you can see why two similar-looking offers differ.
Can one manufacturer supply motorcycles and scooters in the same order?
Yes, if it builds both. BG EBIKE makes e-bikes, seated scooters, motorcycles and tricycles, and they can be mixed in one container with a flexible MOQ. Mixing lets a dealer test several categories at once, but carton sizes differ widely, so confirm how many units of your planned mix fit before production starts.
How long is the warranty on a Chinese electric motorcycle?
It varies by supplier, so get it in writing. BG EBIKE gives a one-year warranty on the vehicle and supplies wear parts with orders as appropriate. Agree how claims are documented, with photos, frame number and fault description, and whether replacement parts travel in the next container or by express.
