Velotric Fold 1 Plus — The Smartest Folding E-Bike on the Market

The Velotric Fold 1 Plus packs serious tech into a frame that folds down to fit in your trunk, your condo closet, or your RV storage bay. A 750W rear hub motor (1,100W peak) with 75 Nm of torque gets you up the steepest hills in the city, while the massive 624 Wh battery delivers up to 109 km of range on a single charge — independently confirmed by professional reviewers.

What makes this bike different? SensorSwap technology. Toggle between a cadence sensor and a torque sensor on the fly — right from the display. Want effortless cruising? Cadence mode. Want a natural, workout-style ride that maximises range? Torque mode. No other folding e-bike gives you both.
