The VanMoof V will be able to reach 50 km/h and could potentially replace cars for short trips in town. — Relaxnews
The Dutch electric bicycle manufacturer VanMoof has unveiled its first high-speed model, capable of reaching 50 km/h and thus, in theory, of replacing cars in urban areas. With cars now being driven out of many urban centres, manufacturers are increasingly offering this kind of e-bike.
With two-wheel drive, thick tires, front and rear suspension and a particularly robust frame, the VanMoof V will also be equipped with technologies such as automatic gear shifting, keyless locking and an anti-theft system. It is already possible to reserve a model on the manufacturer's website, where it is priced €3,498 (about $4,000/RM16,995), with the first shipments not expected before the end of 2022. Note that the VanMoof V will only be available for certain markets (Netherlands, Germany, United States, France, Japan and the United Kingdom).
