Introduction: Why Singapore Is Embracing Ebikes
As one of Asia’s most forward-thinking smart cities, ebike Singapore is taking major steps toward sustainable urban mobility. From expanding its network of Park Connector Networks (PCNs) to promoting car-lite living, both the government and residents are focusing on reducing carbon emissions and improving daily travel efficiency.
A key part of this transition is ebike adoption.
Whether you’re a working professional seeking a quicker way to get to the MRT, a delivery rider navigating tight urban streets, or a recreational cyclist exploring green corridors — an ebike in Singapore offers a reliable, sustainable, and convenient mode of transport.
At eDegree, while we currently specialise in electric scooters and electric wheelchairs, we are strong advocates of all forms of e-mobility that empower people to move with freedom and confidence. This guide explores the ebike movement in Singapore and how eDegree’s offerings complement this growing trend.
Why Ebikes Are Gaining Popularity in Singapore
The growth of ebikes in Singapore is more than just a trend — it’s a response to practical urban challenges. Here’s why more residents are making the switch:
Environmentally Friendly
Ebikes produce zero tailpipe emissions. As Singapore moves toward a lower carbon footprint, they offer an ideal, eco-conscious solution for daily commuting.
Avoid Traffic Congestion
With more vehicles on the road, ebikes help riders bypass traffic jams and use Singapore’s extensive cycling paths for efficient travel.
Cost-Effective Travel
Compared to cars or even public transportation, ebikes involve lower costs in the long term. No fuel, lower maintenance, and no ERP charges make ebikes a practical investment.
Accessible for All Ages
With pedal-assist features, ebikes are easy to ride and accessible to a wide age group, from young adults to seniors.
Aligned with National Policy
The Land Transport Authority (LTA) promotes Walk, Cycle, Ride initiatives. Ebikes align perfectly with this car-lite movement and Singapore’s Smart Nation goals.

Where Can You Ride an Ebike in Singapore?
Before purchasing or riding an ebike, it’s essential to understand Singapore’s laws and guidelines.
Permitted Areas:
- Cycling paths
- Park Connector Networks (PCNs)
- Public roads (only if the ebike is LTA-registered)
Prohibited Areas:
- Footpaths

Additional Requirements:

Following these rules ensures your safety and the safety of others while using shared urban spaces.
Smart Mobility Tips for Urban Commuters
Whether using an ebike, escooter, or electric wheelchair, consider these best practices to ensure safety and optimize your ride:
- Charge Properly: Use LTA-approved chargers and avoid overnight charging.
- Use Protective Gear: Helmets, lights, and reflectors increase visibility and reduce risk.
- Maintain the Device: Check brakes, tires, and batteries regularly.
- Plan for Weather: Avoid heavy rain and slippery conditions whenever possible.
- Share the Space: Signal when overtaking, keep to the left, and be courteous to pedestrians.
