Analysis
The Ultimate C380+ HMB is Gazelle's premium sporty e-bike, powered by the Bosch Performance Line CX Smart System motor with 85Nm of torque and a large Kiox 500 colour display. Instead of a chain it uses a low-maintenance Gates Carbon Drive belt, paired with a stepless Enviolo Trekking hub for smooth shifting with no fixed gears.
The battery (540, 600 or 625Wh depending on the trim) is fully integrated into the frame and not removable. Gazelle states a range of 70 to 230km, heavily dependent on the chosen assist mode: Eco stretches to 230km, Turbo drops to 60km. An air-sprung front fork (SR Suntour MOBIE 34, 80mm) and hydraulic Shimano MT420 brakes round out the comfort package.
Note: this is a reference model, included for comparison so you can put premium Dutch brands side by side with the Amazon models in this comparator. There's no affiliate link: Gazelle doesn't sell through Amazon, so this page has no commission-earning buy button. Price and specs come directly from gazelle.nl (captured August 2026) and may have since changed — check with an authorised Gazelle dealer.
