Lightweight carbon urban electric bike with mid-drive motor – ENGWE N1 Air

The N1 Air is the city bike for anyone who values lightness and design: a carbon-fibre frame and a mid-drive motor with a natural pedalling feel. It doesn't aim for maximum power (40 Nm) but for smooth riding, similar to a regular bicycle, and a weight that's easy to handle in hallways and lifts.

Guide price: €1,249 (VAT included). See the full data in the specifications on this page.

Estimated real-world range

The manufacturer claims up to 100 km, measured with minimum assistance, flat ground and a light rider. In normal use (medium assistance, a 75–85 kg adult, some hills and stops) we estimate between 26 and 36 km per charge, based on 10–14 Wh/km with its 360 Wh battery. With maximum assistance, cold weather or steep climbs, expect the lower end of the range.

Example: for a 10 km commute each way, you would need to charge it roughly every 1–1 working days.

Who is the ENGWE N1 Air for?

• Riders who need to carry it: at 15.6 kg it can be taken up stairs or onto a train without much effort.
• Hilly cities: the mid-drive motor uses the gears and climbs long slopes with less effort.
• Tracks, sand, gravel and broken tarmac: the wide tyres soak up bumps and grip well.
• Tall riders and longer trips: the big wheels roll better and hold speed with less effort.

Do you need a licence or number plate?

No. With 250 W rated power and assistance up to 25 km/h, it is treated as a bicycle in the EU: no licence, no registration and it can use cycle lanes. In Spain helmets are compulsory on interurban roads and for under-16s everywhere.
