When it comes to battery life, the Hauler doesn’t disappoint. The standard model comes with a 48V 18Ah battery, providing 864Wh of capacity. This setup offers riders a range of up to 55 miles (88 km) on a single charge. For those who need even more range, there’s an optional second battery (48V 12Ah) that boosts the total capacity to 1,440Wh, extending the range to an impressive 85 miles (137 km).

As for pricing, the single-battery version of the Hauler is priced at $1,499, while the dual-battery version comes in at $1,899. To sweeten the deal, Heybike is offering a $100 promotional discount on both models during the pre-sale period.
