New to e-bikes in Pakistan — battery range in hot weather?

[PAVE Pakistan]

Hello everyone! I'm new here, joining from Pakistan. I've been thinking about getting an electric bike for my daily commute (about 12 km each way) and would love some advice. One thing I keep wondering about is how the summer heat affects battery range and long-term battery health — it regularly gets above 40°C where I live. Are there specific battery types or brands that handle hot climates better, or anything I should do differently when charging and storing the bike? Thanks in advance, looking forward to learning from this community!

Welcome. @PAVE Pakistan. Lots of e-bikers and e-bike enthusiasts here.

Hopefully, someone will pitch in..:-)

Happy and safe riding.
