New Colorado laws for 2026 D’Angelo Law Office, PC would like you to know about.
By admin on January 9, 2026
Starting January 1, 2026, there are a few new Colorado laws in effect we’d like to highlight for 2026 applicable to the areas of law we practice.
HB25-1197 changes Colorado Revised Statute § 42-4-221 to require manufacturers of electric assisted bicycles to label the e-bike with the highest class which the e-bike is capable of operation, and prohibits false labeling. The law clarifies that vehicles are not electrical assisted bicycle if the vehicle is modified so that it no longer meets the requirements for an electrical assisted bicycle class or a vehicle that is designed, manufactured, or intended by the manufacturer or seller to be easily configured so as not to meet all the requirements of an electrical assisted bicycle class. The act also defines “multiple mode electrical assisted bicycle” to account for electrical assisted bicycles that are capable of switching between different classes.
HB25-1179 changes Colorado Revised Statute § 10-4-644 to require car insurance companies to include the replacement cost of a car seat or other restraint system in the vehicle at the time of a crash.
