Compatibility answer

Will the Bosch CompactTube 400 (the smart system) work with the Bosch Performance Line drive unit (the smart system)?

Yes. Both use Bosch smart system CompactTube 400.

Both records are reviewed against the manufacturers' sources; sources last checked 2026-10-14. Informational only: confirm with the manufacturer before buying.

Why

  • ✓ Both use Bosch smart system CompactTube 400.

Good to know

  • CompactTube is a different, smaller housing from the PowerTube; a frame built for a CompactTube does not take a PowerTube and vice versa.
  • Bosch lists it for horizontal or vertical integration with the same dimensions; confirm the version with your bike maker.
  • Bosch: 'Use only original Bosch batteries that the manufacturer has approved for your eBike' and 'Only charge the battery using original Bosch chargers'; Bosch warns other batteries/chargers can be a fire hazard (Bosch PowerTube 750 operating instructions, as hosted on ManualsLib).
  • Safety: use only batteries and chargers the drive-system maker approves. Lithium batteries that don't match can overheat.
