Is the XP4 Step-Thru worth $999?

At $999 at Electric Sports Company as of November 8, 2026, it is a strong value: a 750W motor, hydraulic brakes and an 8-speed drivetrain are rare at this price. It is a good buy if you can handle its weight.

How does the XP4 compare with the XP3?

The XP4 adds hydraulic disc brakes and an updated frame and motor over the XP3. The step-thru version keeps the same folding layout but is easier to mount.

What is the range on a charge?

Lectric rates the battery for roughly 25 to 45 miles depending on assist level. Owners report shorter range with heavy throttle use, cold weather or hills.

How much does it weigh?

It weighs around 60 pounds, which is typical for a folding fat-tire e-bike. Plan on lifting it in two pieces or rolling it folded rather than carrying it far.

Does it come assembled?

It ships mostly assembled, with the front wheel, handlebars, pedals and fenders to fit. Most owners finish setup in under an hour with the included tools.

Lectric runs sales around major holidays and model-year changes. The current $999 is already near the low end of its recent range, so waiting may not save much.
