peugeot eF01:

The eF01 offers an easy, smooth and active user experience for multimodal travel thanks to an innovative folding mechanism designed by Peugeot Design Lab. Folding and unfolding the bicycle in less than ten seconds is mere child's play: riders simply have to perform three steps in any order to alternate between riding, walking taking the train or metro.
"The eF01 benefits from optimised ergonomics. When folded, the bikes two wheels are perfectly aligned allowing the user to effortlessly walk with the bike using the handle built into the frame. The eF01 possesses a patented memory system for the saddle which means the perfect saddle height can be quickly achieved every time" explains Neil SIMPSON, Lead designer Peugeot Design Lab.
PEUGEOT designed the eF01 for customers looking for mobility solutions to complement their vehicle. Thanks to the Dockstation, the eF01 can be stored and recharged in the boot of the new PEUGEOT 5008 SUV or any other vehicle with a 12-volt outlet. The battery recharges within approximately two hours whilst driving and can also be plugged into a regular outlet.
Compact, powerful and reliable, the eF01 weighs 17 kg, can reach a speed of 20 km/h and has a lithium-ion battery for a range of up to 30 kilometres. Disc brakes on the 16-inch front and rear wheels ensure optimum performance.
Connected, the eF01 uses the Bluetoothİ Low Energy protocol to communicate with a smartphone. Mypeugeot APP can be used to view the current range and battery level.
