It is probably the means of transport that guarantees a certain speed and a certain comfort <strong>least polluting of all<\/strong>, even compared to other electric vehicles. First, there is a significant saving in materials and energy needed to build it; also the energy required for charging an\u00a0e-bike is about one-tenth that a\u00a0conventional electric car requires.<\/p>\n<h2>E-bikes in the world and China&#8217;s primacy<\/h2>\n<p><img class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-12520\" src=\"https:\/\/ecobnb.com\/blog\/app\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2017\/01\/Quanzhou_-_bike_traffic_-_DSCF8716-870x490.jpg\" alt=\"E-bikes in China\" width=\"870\" height=\"490\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ecobnb.com\/blog\/app\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2017\/01\/Quanzhou_-_bike_traffic_-_DSCF8716-870x490.jpg 870w, https:\/\/ecobnb.com\/blog\/app\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2017\/01\/Quanzhou_-_bike_traffic_-_DSCF8716-570x320.jpg 570w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 870px) 100vw, 870px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>In Europe and, to a lesser extent, in North America, the development of the electric bicycle market is <strong>steadily rising<\/strong> for some years, but the country where e-bikes are invading the streets and increasingly replacing the car is also one the most polluted and polluting countries in the world: <strong>China<\/strong>.
