Core Viewpoint - The new mandatory national standard for electric bicycles (GB 17761—2024) has been implemented since September 1, 2024, aiming to enhance safety and quality in the electric bicycle industry, which has approximately 380 million units in circulation in China, equating to one electric bicycle for every four people [1]. Group 1: New Standards and Regulations - The new standard imposes clear requirements on vehicle markings, safety, mechanical safety, fire resistance, and dynamic safety monitoring, including a maximum speed limit of 25 km/h for electric bicycles [1]. - To prevent illegal modifications, the new standard introduces technical specifications for battery packs, controllers, and speed limiters, raising the threshold for modifications and promoting a "one vehicle, one battery, one charger, one code" system for traceability [1][2]. Group 2: Enhanced Safety Features - The new standard incorporates intelligent features such as Beidou positioning, communication, and dynamic safety monitoring, allowing consumers to receive real-time safety information and alerts for issues like theft or battery overheating [3]. - The communication module will upload dynamic information to management platforms, which will alert users and companies of any detected safety hazards, ensuring compliance with national information security standards [3]. Group 3: Transition for Existing Vehicles - New electric bicycles produced after September 1, 2024, must comply with the new standards and obtain mandatory product certification before leaving the factory [4]. - A three-month sales transition period is granted for electric bicycles produced under the old standard, allowing sales until November 30, 2025, while existing non-compliant vehicles will not be forcibly eliminated but may be updated through local government policies [4].
