    The LEVA-EU member is ready for China’s newly implemented E-Bike Safety Standard with their new compliant battery.

    On December 1, 2025, China officially banned the sale of all e-bikes built to the older national standard, implementing the updated mandatory Safety Technical Specifications for Electric Bicycles. Any e-bike sold in China must now carry a valid China Compulsory Certificate (CCC) under this brand-new standard – older certificates are invalid.

    These new rules go far beyond what most countries require. They tighten fire-resistance requirements, restrict plastic components to 5.5% of total weight, cap vehicle weight, and mandate improved electrical safety. Enhanced anti-tampering technologies for battery packs, controllers, and speed limiters curb illegal modifications at the source.

    Working hand-in-hand with GB 43854-2024 – one of the world’s toughest lithium-ion battery standards (in place since October 2024 in China) – the regulations require mandatory over-charge protection, thermal abuse tests, puncture tests, and ban repurposed or second-hand cells, which have been a major cause of past fires. Greenway’s new 4828 lithium battery offers lightweight compliance, all-weather performance and maximum safety.

    Lightweight compliance: Aerospace-grade magnesium alloy housing weighs just 9.6kg, helping meet strict weight requirements while enhancing fire resistance. Double-handle design enables flexible battery positioning.

    All-weather performance: Charges at -10℃, discharges at -20℃, with 70km+ range for daily commuting and 5+ year lifespan that reduces total cost of ownership.

    Maximum safety: GB 43854-2024 certified, passing nail puncture, drop, and water immersion tests. Greenway’s smart BMS continuously monitors battery parameters and protects against misuse and safety issues.

    Overall, Greenway’s 4828 battery delivers on both the compliance and performance that e-mobility in China demands.
