  • I visited Ananda's R&D center in Shanghai and its factory in Wuxi to see how the company designs and builds drive systems for electric bikes, e-scooters, and mopeds. Extremely close attention to detail and higher quality standards have helped Ananda become one of the largest micromobility drive system makers in the entire country.

    Awesome video! Its clear that they have a massive operation with efficient manufacturing. I shouldn’t be surprised considering how many brands are using Ananda these days. Glad to see all the testing and QC processes too.

    Really good, this is what most Americans should realise: China may have been low price low quality, but that's not true since long time, so now it's awesome quality for great price

      low quality only products were decades old actually. China can produce garbage to space vehicle. the question should be, why your local dealer only sell those garbage, at a very high price in Chinese standard.
      but at the same time, you may not know how many fancy things you are buying are made in China too.

    The goal to make better quality is what makes competition so great instead of lesser quality for more profit. Good to know they don't rest on past laurels. Cheers from Edmonton Alberta Canada.

    well they seem to have their operation well planned. However, everytime I see one of these factory tour videos I'm aware they are putting their best foot forward. I have been seeing more Ananda motor systems on different bikes so maybe they will be on my next e bike.

    Great video, of an extremely impressive level of QC and engineering. Two questions...How does one figure out if Ananda is the unnamed maker behind the scenes when evaluating an E=-bike for purchase? Also, what is the fixation with fat tires on e-bikes? So many would be much better bikes with narrower rims.

    Ananda, please make a light road e-bicycle with wide gear range for high speed and steep climbs and a massive range.

    This company's Headquarters are in Cologne Germany and 49.9% of its €2.44 billion revenue are generated outside Germany , and Ananda is is totally owned by TUV Rheinland AG with around 22,000 employees worldwide

      ???? TUV Rheinland AG is a company dedicated to certification and counseling in industrial processes, it's not an investment company. The informations I've found about Ananda shows it as 100% Chinese. What are your sources?

      On the website of Ananda I did "find out" that it's a huge company and they work close with TUV for the European market and even have a sales office in the Netherlands where I live.
      I never heard of them but they are pretty big in Europe too and they look totally Chinees to me. 😄
      Maybe you work for Bosch, and don't like this? 😜

    It doesn't help that US UK and european governments push a biased narrative that anything Chinese is bad, can't be trusted and will fall apart. But that is just not the cases at all, especially with well established trusted brands like Ananda, who are big in China but Not well Known internationally.
