2020 Powerfly 5 battery swap?

[qwertycube]

The 2020 PF5 comes with 500 battery. Anyone confirm if it can take a 625 battery later?

I’m pretty sure it can’t.

A simple way to tell; where the battery is bolted to the battery cover, is there a spacer that effectively makes the battery longer?

Does anyone have PF5 who can confirm if 500 battery has a spacer fitted? that would allow a longer 625 battery to fit? Thanks.

If the PF5 has Gen 4 motor The 625 will fit. I have a Rail with 625 battery and the wife’s PF5 has a 500, both batteries work in both bikes. Both with Gen4 motors.

How does the 625 fit in the PF? It’s significantly longer.

They’re exactly the same size. The battery at the bottom of the picture above is the 500, with the plastic spacer. Top is the 625 with no spacer.

Thanks for replies. I’ve since found a reply to same question on Trek’s own technical Q&A forum. Yes, 2020 PF5 can take either battery?

Can we know the weights of the two ?
Why the covers are not the same length ?
Thank's.....

They are. It’s just the perspective of the picture.
