Just got an email from Citibike
Ebikes will return this winter.
Ebikes will be back on the streets of NYC this winter. While we hoped to have them back this fall, we needed the extra time to prepare the new bikes and complete safety testing. We’ve also lowered ebike pricing with your feedback in mind.
Thanks for your patience while we work to continuously improve the Citi BikeŽ️ system with new stations, more bikes, and better pricing.

Lower ebike prices
We’re replacing previously announced pricing — a $2 charge on every ebike ride — to better reflect riders’ needs and our true costs.
- Annual Members will pay a $0.10/minute ebike charge.
- Members’ ebike charges will be capped at $2 for rides 45 minutes or less beginning and/or ending outside Manhattan.
- Two minute wait time removed to make it easy to swap from ebike to classic bike (and vice versa).
- Non-Members will pay a $0.15/minute ebike charge.
- Reduced Fare Bike Share Members will pay a $0.05/minute ebike charge.
Extra time fee changes
Starting January 15, we’re updating extra time fees — currently $2.50 every 15 minutes — for Annual Members and Single Ride riders. The new, per-minute model will save riders money by only charging them for the time they use.
- Annual Member fees will be $0.15/minute after the included 45 minutes.
- Single Ride fees will be $0.15/minute after the included 30 minutes.
