Mini has always been a brand synonymous with compact efficiency and iconic design. Now, the automaker is diving into two-wheel territory with its latest release, the Mini E-Bike 1, a collaborative effort with French brand Angell Mobility.
The E-bike seems like the Swiss Army Knife of e-bikes
Unlike any regular e-bike, the Mini E-Bike 1 is all about customization. Whether you’re tall or short, this bike can adjust to fit you. Designed mainly for city commuting, it features an aluminum frame and a thermoplastic chain guard. Think of it as the Swiss Army knife of e-bikes; it’s built to adapt to various types of riding.
When it comes to power, the Mini E-Bike 1 doesn’t skimp. It runs on a 250-watt rear hub motor, controllable through an integrated cockpit or even your smartphone. This ensures you can tweak performance settings on the go. Plus, the bike sports a 2.1-kilogram swappable battery pack, cleverly hidden under what you might mistake for a luggage rack. It’s not for carrying bags, but it does make charging a breeze.
What sets this e-bike apart even more is its app. With a few taps on your phone, you can lock, unlock, and locate your bike via built-in GPS. Need to ride before sunrise or after sunset? No problem—the bike comes with front and rear lights to keep you visible and safe.
This futuristic ride is available in two eye-catching colors: Ocean Wave Green and Vibrant Silver, a nod to Mini’s iconic palette. And here’s the kicker: the Mini E-Bike 1 is a limited-edition masterpiece. Only 1,959 will be produced, paying homage to the year the first Mini Cooper rolled out. As for the cost? It’s tagged at $3,716, making it a premium but feature-packed investment for the modern commuter.
