# Long-Range Electric Bikes Ekute Launched the Polluno City Bike with a 65-Mile Range By Colin Smith | Published 2022-06-20 | Autos Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/polluno References: [makeuseof](https://www.makeuseof.com/eskute-polluno-city-ebike-review/) & [eskute](https://eskute.com/)  [Eskute](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/netuno) launched its latest commuter-focused e-bike, the Polluno. The Polluno [city](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/loft-go-7d) e-bike is optimized for riding on paved roads, cement, and tarmac. Rather than trying to create an all-in-one e-bike with a large price tag, Eskute sought to optimize this e-bike for [city commuters](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/priority-current-plus) while keeping the price down. As a result of this, the bike only has front suspension and moderate wheels that balance speed and stability. The bike achieves a maximum speed of 15.5 miles per hour from its 250-watt motor. When this is combined with the bike's 522 Watt-hour battery it can ride for 65 miles before needing to charge. However, the bike does not have ultra-fast charging and takes upwards of six hours before reaching its capacity.
