Engwe Zip

The ENGWE ZIP is a lightweight, foldable electric bike designed for urban commuting, featuring a 250W rear hub motor with around 40 Nm of torque and a top assisted speed of 25 km/h. It uses a removable lithium-ion battery suitable for short-to-medium city rides, along with a torque sensor for smooth and natural pedal assistance. Built with a compact 20-inch alloy frame, it weighs about 16.9 kg and folds quickly into a portable, suitcase-like form, making it ideal for public transport and small storage spaces. The bike includes a Shimano 7-speed drivetrain, mechanical disc brakes, and a shock-absorbing seatpost for comfort. With a maximum load capacity of 120 kg and a launch price of around £899, the ENGWE ZIP stands out for its portability, affordability, and commuter-focused design, though it is less suited for long-distance or off-road use.
