[Jeremy McCreary]

Here in the US the SL1 5.0 and SL2 5.0 both have 320 watt batteries.

Turbo Vado SL 2 5.0

Nothing delivers more power, speed, and range at such lightweight than Turbo Vado SL 2. It’s a high-performance machine carefully engineered to make fit...

The full specs in that official SL 2 5.0 product page you linked shows a 520 Wh battery, just like the 6.0. Where did you see 320 Wh for this bike? Typo?

You are correct, in the "at a glance" section it says this, but 320 watt refers to the motor.

Calling it an ‘E-Bike’ is an Insult​

Here in bicycle mad (for the US) Sonoma County I have yet to see another SL1 though I have seen a few Turbo Creos.

That's the engine. The batteries have 520 Wh, like the 6.0. So both engine and battery are the same on the new 6.0. 5.0 and 4.0

I rode the sweetest bike today. It is a handmade compliant double butted chromoly Surly Straggler with a 90nm DM02, and a custom 520Wh battery. It has mechanical discs that are like jewelry because when you are 100 miles out loaded with bikepacking you do not want to deal with a hydro failure. It also has premo mechanical shifting for the same reason. Selecting 1 (out of the five power levels) climbs like a Vado SL in Turbo, but this bike is intended to haul a couple hundred pounds of cargo plus the rider. All cables are external for easy service and the battery is also external for easy swaps or as the tech develops for a different universal mount battery. The DM02 can even be swapped out for another universal fit motor in five or ten years. I can program everything, I mean everything, through the small color T-145 display. If you question the programable rider customization dig deep by checking out the pdf. It is in today for service. This best bike I have ever ridden.

Only for Bosch E-Bike.

The motor is electric, the engine is anything related to the combustion
