The S-Works Turbo Levo has become a regular in our eMTB group tests. For the 2022 season, Specialized's powerful eMTB has remained unchanged. Did the 2022 S-Works Turbo Levo finally manage to win out against the competition with its performance-oriented spec, powerful motor, big 700 Wh battery, progressive geometry and complex connectivity solutions? Given the € 15,000 price tag, the expectations were high.
