Iowa HF74 amends the power output limit for low-speed electric bicycles and pedestrian conveyances.

Iowa HF74 modifies the authorized maximum power output for electric motors on low-speed electric bicycles and pedestrian conveyances. The bill changes the current law, which limits the output of such electric motors to less than 750 watts, to authorize these motors to produce not more than 750 watts. The definition of "pedestrian conveyance" is expanded to include devices used to move a person sitting or standing, powered by an electric motor producing less than or equal to 750 watts. This change affects the classification and regulation of these devices under Iowa law.
